Client β€” 2:34 PM
Hey! So excited about how this is coming together. Quick question β€” can you just make the logo a little bigger, swap the font to something more "premium," and add that scroll animation we talked about? Should be super quick. πŸ™
None of these were in the original scope.

"I'm bad at enforcing it... I usually let things slide, forget to remind people, or just keep going because it feels awkward to stop the flow and say 'hey this is billable now.'"

The cost of being "easy to work with"

79%
of creative agencies work beyond scope for free
$1K–$5K
what 57% of agencies lose to unbilled scope creep every month
1%
successfully bill for ALL out-of-scope work

One freelancer quoted $2,000 for a landing page, worked 43 hours, got paid $2,000 β€” lost $2,300 in unpaid work.

"Bonsai, HoneyBook, Dubsado, Wave, FreshBooks, all of them make that process cleaner... None of them question whether it is the right process. Scope creep happens in the same gap because there is no natural checkpoint."
