Everyone has that one client from hell. The one who monopolizes your time, frustrates the entire staff, and makes unreasonable demands. If you’ve got more than one, you probably spend 3 out of 4 weekends in office. If we apply the Pareto principle (or 80:20 rule) to the agency-client relationship, 80% of an agency’s resources are utilized in managing 20% of its clients.

2. If the difficult ones happen to be your highest billing clients, here are a few useful tips to help you identify and manage them effectively.
