#154: From the Vault - What to do when a client is resistant to your ideas/suggestions

Today, enjoy a throwback episode with Josh and Garrett as they discuss working with clients who don’t take your suggestions well!

Takeaways:

1. Three reasons clients might be resistant:
   a. Reason #1 - They have a fear of being judged (whether founded or not).
   b. Reason #2 - They don’t see the purpose of something/they think something is extraneous.
   c. Reason #3 - Their past experiences have not gone well in this particular area.
2. Recognize your clients’ sacred cows.
3. If someone says they’re happy with their progress, take the win!!!
