Respect Is the Real Deliverable

[kevin1]

Great work impresses—but great communication keeps you booked.

Respect clients by:

Keeping them in the loop

Setting expectations clearly

Meeting deadlines (or explaining delays)

Tiny courtesies, like acknowledging files and giving delivery dates, build trust. Treat clients like partners, and you’ll turn short-term gigs into a career that lasts.
