Today we are talking about Linnie and Rachels coping styles when it comes to fighting and how the mistakes newer planners make are severely detrimental to our industry as a whole!

It's easy as a new planner to over-promise and under-deliver because you're trying your best to book as many clients as possible but starting off making promises that you can't deliver on and also devalue your fellow creatives is the wrong way to go about it!

Setting realistic expectations for your clients is not only the right thing to do but is your duty as a professional. We are here to help some of the newer folks in the industry learn how to properly articulate that you can work with lower budget clients and give the best value to your client without making your creative partners feel like the clearance rack at an Burlington Coat Factory.
