The Complete Client Workflow
Most freelancers waste time reinventing the wheel on every project. Build a repeatable process once — then execute it faster each time. Here's the workflow that scales:
01
Discovery Call (15 min)
Understand what they need, what they hate about their current situation, and what success looks like. Ask more than you talk.
02
Send a Scoped Proposal (same day)
Use the proposal generator below. Flat fee, clear deliverables, timeline, revision limit. No scope creep.
03
Collect 50% Upfront
Non-negotiable. Anyone serious will pay. This filters out time-wasters immediately and protects your work.
04
Build with Claude (1–3 days)
Prompt → preview → iterate → deliver. What takes a traditional dev a week takes you hours. That's your margin.
05
Deliver + Collect Balance
Send the final files, collect the remaining 50%, and ask one question: "Who else do you know who needs this?"
