Ghosted? What to Do When a Client Doesn’t Pay Up!
Tuesday Mar 16, 2021
Tuesday Mar 16, 2021
We have a great podcast for you this week - hopefully solving the age old issue of a client not coughing up the goods…you know, that client who refuses to pay you after all of the video work you did. Freelancing in the video production world does have its perks but one of the downsides is that risk that your client won’t pay on time and is seemingly unreachable.
In the dating world, when someone stops calling and seems to have fallen off the radar completely, it’s referred to as “ghosting.” As you can imagine, getting ditched by last night’s dinner date is disappointing, but it isn’t nearly as traumatic as being ghosted by a client you’ve spent a lot of time and did lots of work for, but suddenly disappear on you…not cool!
Today’s guest is Dee Bowden, she teaches small business owners how to reconcile, resolve & recover OLD and OWED invoices to improve their cash flow. She just came out with a brand new book called Collect the Cash (https://collectthecash.biz/) – a great resource for anyone who needs a strategy to deal with that ghosting client.

The face of video production has changed because of this pandemic –the usual productions are down, unemployment is up and we’re all trying to find ways to make ends meet. You may have even lost your full time job and looking to use your video skills as a temporary backup to start bringing in some income for yourself or your family.
The new pandemic world has different needs when it comes to video….you’re questions and emails to me personally are so telling…you're not seeing the opportunities as clear as you should in this new world…but they’re there hidden right in front of you.
It’s important to know where the opportunities are…where the “food’ is.

The Only Man on the Planet Who Broadcasted Live Video From the Moon

We are on a mission to rid this world of bad video. Now, what is bad video and not only looks and sounds horrible, but bad video doesn't do anything.
If it doesn't engage or get results. It's bad video, and it's a waste of everyone's time and resources. One of my favorite unforgettable interviews was with Stan LeBar, the NASA engineer who headed the team that created that black and white camera for Apollo moon missions.
Stan created the camera that engaged the entire world as they watched Neil Armstrong take his first steps on the moon. We all watched this during the worldwide television broadcast of the landing in 1969. Now that broadcast wasn't perfect, but we still view the historical footage to this very day, thanks to Stan and his team.
Now we're pulling this podcast up from the archives, along with some audio not included in the original edited version, which was released back on July 12 2009. Unfortunately, Stan passed away six months later on December 23 2009. He was 84 years old. So we are once again dedicating this podcast to his accomplishment.
