I have switched from doing site work for lawyers to site work for small retail businesses and I am finding a common and disturbing theme... People are paying me for work, but when I am ready to deliver, few seem to either have access to their ftp or cpanel info or they don't really make the effort to get it to me in the first place. I find myself calling people to ask them for information over and over because I feel like, if I don't, they will get buyer's remorse and chalk up their payment to me as a bad investment that they will just write off...thus never using me again or referring me to others...It's like I am using valuable time as a babysitter.
Is it just me...?
