Wake Up Call: How to have a tough conversation – negotiation tactics for creatives
BCI Webinar
From the shapeshifting client brief to nitpicky pricing queries, we all have moments where a “yes, of course that’s fine!” response to a client won’t cut it. With profit, client relationships, and your business at risk, it can be hard to navigate through those discussions without making overly painful compromises.
In this webinar, business strategist Meg Lovell will walk through a few simple-but-effective tactics you can use to dramatically improve the outcome of those client exchanges without burning goodwill or undervaluing your work.
Who’s it for?
This session is for anyone working in the creative sector, from graduates to seasoned professionals. The techniques and strategies discussed will apply equally to those just starting out who need to advocate for themselves, to freelancers and agency owners dealing with demanding clients.
