To ensure quality isn't compromised while conveying project timelines to clients, start by establishing clear and realistic deadlines based on the project's complexity and available resources. Break down tasks into smaller milestones and communicate these checkpoints to the client, highlighting key delivery dates. Be transparent about any potential risks or challenges that may impact the timeline. Regularly update the client on progress, manage expectations effectively, and prioritize tasks to maintain quality. If delays occur, explain the reasons promptly and discuss necessary adjustments, ensuring that quality remains the top priority throughout the project.

No matter how difficult it may seem, communicating project timelines is far better than delivering crappy work. Tell them from the start how long it's going to take, and ensure you iterate it's relevance in making the project better.

Aprendí que al gestionar un proyecto se debe tener claro las resticciones de mismo (alcance, dinero y tiempo). Si se tiene dificultad en la comunicación de los plazo (tiempo) se puede aplicar la triada para ejemplificar que se lograría. Por ejemplo, si quieres tener en una semana 100 artículos. Lo podemos lograr si estos se producen con inteligencia artificial, una curaduría media y de una extención de 3 párrafos cada uno. Además aumentaría los costos %. Con la determinación de las triada y la creación de criterios de aceptación se evitan confusiones en expectativas y claridad en los entregables.

First things first set clear expectations when onboarding a client. The best way to go about deadlines is to keep a day or two as a buffer, If you do client fulfillment at the start of the week then let the client know you'll deliver on Wednesday each week. (but aim to deliver by Tuesday) And it's okay to miss deadlines at times, we all do life happens but make sure you communicate it beforehand. (Just a simple update on where are you at with the deliverables and the reason you won't be able to meet the deadline )

It's important to always manage expectations upfront. Let the client know just how long you need to work on said project, so as not to compromise on quality. If they're practical, they'll appreciate your professionalism.

Balancing tight deadlines with quality is crucial in client work. Clear communication, setting realistic expectations, and prioritizing essential tasks help avoid cutting corners. Regular check-ins ensure both quality and timelines stay on track, while maintaining transparency builds trust with clients.

Why are you struggling? Timelines are timelines. Consult with your team members. Brainstorm on better ways to convey the message.

Establish realistic and achievable deadlines to ensure the timely accomplishment of tasks without compromising content quality. It is vital to be honest and transparent about what you can deliver on time.

When I’ve had trouble conveying project timelines to clients, I learned that being honest and setting clear expectations from the very beginning is key. Breaking things down into smaller phases and keeping them updated regularly helps me manage expectations, so they understand the process and trust that quality won’t be sacrificed just to meet a deadline.

If you can't make your deadlines, you can't say 'no'. So… say 'no'. Say 'no' to distractions → I like using app blockers so I have 0 choice Say 'no' to your ego → I like setting a 30m timer & doing draft 1 before it rings Say 'no' to clients → I always work with my own pace, not "whatever the client says"
