The wrong client can tarnish your reputation.
This is true - for any industry.
It just takes one client, one bad decision, to lose a reputation you’ve taken years to build.
I’ve learnt over the years that long-term relationships with clients are significantly more valuable to me than making a quick quid from a few once-off investments.
If you can’t see yourself working with me for the next 10+ years, then don’t even bother reaching out.
The cost of getting to know your financial situation isn’t worth the effort if there’s no scope for a long-term partnership.
And as much as you need to like me, my approach and ways of working -
I need to like you too.
Because if I don’t, it’s unlikely I’ll deliver the best possible service.
And your dissatisfaction will affect how you talk about me to others. 👎🏼
If you’re providing a service, always consider the cost of the relationship:
- The cost of your time
- The cost of your mental health
And the return on your investment for both if you move ahead.
