As an entrepreneur, you need firm parameters in place to make sure you don’t allow a single client to dominate or take advantage of your time and expertise. While all clients want and deserve your time and attention, if one monopolizes your usefulness, it can prevent the business from growing in new directions.
It’s easier to avert this type of scenario than it is to extract oneself from it, and by taking steps to ensure that you are in control of your own time, you can.
