Creative Entrepreneur

THE UNRELIABILITY TAX: Why I Stopped Subsidizing My Clients' Bad Planning 💔 Every creative business owner has felt the pinch: the client who loves your work but constantly pays late or cancels projects after you've already invested weeks in planning and purchasing materials. I realized that I was paying an "Unreliability Tax"—losing money, wasting time, and burning out my creative energy to cover my client's chaos. I had to stop. My new business rules are simple: Full Price is the Standard: It covers the financial risk and my expertise. Discounts Must Be Earned: Bundles and savings are reserved ONLY for reliable, value-adding partners. We have to move past the idea that our craft is easily replaceable by a phone or an AI app. You aren't just buying footage; you're buying guaranteed strategy, technical insurance, and professional reliability. This is how I protected my cash flow and saved my business. If you're struggling with client boundaries, you need to read this post.
