Client Tool Craziness

52 min

Sep 12, 2024

On today’s show: should you spread yourself across each of your client’s project management tools? Or should you make them join yours?

It’s a question Taylor’s facing as she grows her business. 

We spoke with Taylor about a year ago, and things are going great. 

But she works with so many clients now; they each have their preferred project management tool.

We’ll discuss that and more on today’s episode of Freelance to Founder.
