In this episode, Mena and Stuart tackle the challenging but crucial topic of how to fire a customer that doesn’t suit your business. They explore the impact of bad customers, who not only fail to refer new clients but also take longer to serve, increase business risk, and are generally less profitable and enjoyable to work with. Mena and Stuart explain that bad clients can hinder business growth and make it difficult to attract and retain great staff. They stress that success often comes from saying no to certain customers, even though many people find it hard to do so.

The discussion includes identifying what a good target client looks like and ensuring that the whole team understands this. Mena and Stuart provide practical strategies for firing a bad customer, such as increasing prices, setting future deadlines for service completion, or making excuses about capacity constraints. They highlight the importance of having a clear strategy for managing client relationships to ensure long-term business success.

Tune in for valuable insights and actionable advice on maintaining a healthy and profitable client base.
