Sacking a client, it's terrifying 🫣

May 05, 20261 min read

Especially when you're just starting out, every client feels like a must

But what if… that one clients is draining your energy and taking up too much time 😬

I was chatting to an Incubator member last week, she was at breaking point

She has got this one client…

A real high-maintenance client, always demanding, questioning everything, and paying barely anything (one of her first clients before she started charging correctly)

She knew deep down this client was holding her back, but the fear of losing even that small income, the guilt of letting someone go was stopping her from doing it

We talked it through, looked at the numbers, the hours spent versus the profit generated

It was clear, this client was a net negative, sucking up energy that could go to her best & most of all… PROFITABLE clients

She took the leap, she sacked her 💪

And the immediate relief, she said it was like a weight lifted off her shoulders

Suddenly, she had more time, more mental space, and more energy for the clients who truly valued her and paid her worth

This is exactly what we preach in the Incubator, profit is the main thing

You're not running a charity, you're running a business 👊

Sometimes, the best growth comes from cutting ties with what's holding you back, even if it feels scary at first

It’s about protecting your energy and focusing on what actually moves the needle for your business

Not just working with everyone & anyone willing to pay you
