Ever lost a client?

[Maddox]

I like your mindset. If you believe that clients come and go, you will not beat up yourself too much for the ones that got away. You will find others the way you found those ones too.

Exactly. There is always going to be more fishes in the water. The problem is if you know how to catch those fishes and make use of them for yourself.

If one has an abundant mentality, then he will not sulk on one client that refuses to continue. Double up your hustle and land better ones.

Yes, that's true! Crying over a lost client is a total of time because it is never going to bring the client back to start ordering for your services again.

And it will make you to regress and never grow. Sulking about someone that don't needs your service is like begging for help when you have the help on you.

The funny thing is that whenever a client noticed that you are desperate to secure their patronage, they find it very difficult to pay for your services again.

The worst thing I can ever do is beg a lost client to come back. This will give them the opportunity to rubbish you and your job, the way they will ask for decrease because you called them back will be very annoying.

There are times when for one reason or another we lose the clients we work with. It can be disheartening but there is no choice but to move on.

Have you ever lost a client? Why and how did you cope?

Don't most freelancers lose clients all the time? I don't even care about a client who doesn't want to return after I tried reaching out and they decide to ignore me. I treat them like they don't exist.

Well begging is actually the height of it. It just shows that you do not value yourself, and that is the same way a client is going to treat you as well. If you are good at what you do and market yourself you will get better clients.

Every humans lose clients in their businesses both online and offline. Going to the store to get something and it didn't fit to the amount you wanted, you will leave the store and this is how it is for freelancers.

 

[Ryder]

There's some pains that comes to losing a client. You might try to forge ahead because it's not the end of the world but inside of you, a little whisper will be angry for losing that one client. Though it will fade but it's painful.

As long as it's not my fault that made me lose the client, I would never think about him or her for one second. I can't have them all.

This is the reality and there is nothing anyone is going to do about it. You lose and gain clients and that's how life goes on.

 

[Larry]

No one can ever said that they haven't. It's a normal thing in businesses and it's a bad thing. As you lost one client, you still gain another and life continues.

It is always part of the job to lose client and always get new ones. The most important thing is making sure that you have the skills and also promote your services very well to be able to reach more clients.

Losing a client don't used to be our faults all the time. It can be when you have agreed with the client on how to pay but see them changing mind at the end of the discussion.

This is the reality and there is nothing anyone is going to do about it. You lose and gain clients and that's how life goes on.

Life goes on. I won't kill myself if one client decides not to patronize me. Life will not always be on our favour all the time.

This is a nice approach towards the situation, I will try and copy it. Most of these situations are beyond our control, so when it happens we just accept it and move on.

Have the skills and clients will always knock on your door. When you are good with your skills, old clients will always refer people to you.

I won't beg anybody to patronize me. As you are leaving, another better client is coming in and if it suits them, they pay for my service.
