Posted: Tue Jan 28, 2025 4:28 am
You have working hours and your own internal resources. Try to complete your tasks as much as possible during this time. It's about planning, time management and work-life balance.
If you understand that the task does not meet your agreements or goes beyond the scope of what is possible (for example, creating a marketing strategy at 4 am, or a special project is not worth the money), do not be afraid to refuse the client, but do so in a reasonable and accessible way, explaining the reason.
"We will do it, but by this number", "The cost of this project is higher because...", "We vietnam rcs data currently have the following projects in the works. To complete your task, we need to postpone one of them. Which one do you think?"
At the same time, try to feel the fine line when it is worth making concessions. Especially if you understand that the additional task is minimal in terms of resource costs, but will bring incredible benefits to the client. At the same time, tell them that this is your goodwill, not an obligation. Then you will not program the client to have unjustified expectations in the future.
