00:29:48 Erika ⚡ Brazen Babes Design: They ALWAYS choose my least favorite logo
00:30:21 Janet Hoover: Yes, love it, thank you!
00:37:17 Janet Hoover: How would/could you reword that question (proven offer) if you know the person and/or know they’ve been in business for 20ish years?
00:38:39 Janet Hoover: Ok you just answered my question
00:40:00 Janet Hoover: Maybe like: How do clients find you/how do you market your business?
00:43:47 Megan Harrington: My question is, and this could be in the course, but how do you tier packages when you know a potential retainer client wants you to do it all for them and they have given you a list of deliverables.
00:50:54 Leigh Scott: Erica, I’d recommend looking at getting certified as a women owned business with WBENC. supplier diversity is super important with corporations now. You could also consider getting registered as a WOSB and getting registered with SAM so you could bid on govt contracts.
00:52:40 Melissa Reese: @Erica – I don’t practice anymore, but I was a corporate procurement attorney and I’m happy to answer any questions that come up.
00:53:18 Erica Nash: Leigh, I’ll definitely look into those! You aren’t the first to suggest that, so I guess it’s time! Thanks!
00:53:34 Erica Nash: Melissa, that’s so generous of you, thank you!!
00:54:36 Megan Harrington: If she has set deadlines for everything do I just charge really high?
00:55:30 Megan Harrington: ok thanks!
00:58:03 Nikki Bartholomew: I have been loving getting my answers right away when I get stuck 😀
00:58:30 Rachel Briscoe: For sure!!!
00:58:32 Janet Hoover: Thank YOU!
00:58:34 Nikki Bartholomew: THANK YOU!!!!
00:58:36 Megan Harrington: Thank you!
00:58:39 Erika ⚡ Brazen Babes Design: Thank you Shannon! You’re the best.
00:58:45 Rachel Briscoe: Thank you SO much Shannon!
00:59:01 Sez Gower | @whaletaildigital: Thank you so much Shannon. These early morning (for me) calls are worth getting up to watch live!
