How to Deal with an Angry Client

In a perfect world, everything would go smoothly and your clients would always be gushing over the incredible work you’ve seamlessly prepared for them.  In the real world, you need to learn how to roll with the punches.

So what do you do when a client confronts you? My number one rule is to stay calm and don’t get defensive. If you take the confrontation personally, you won’t listen to what the client is trying to tell you. You need to get to the heart of the problem and do what you can to fix it.
