Are there any free /easy to use project management tools y’all know about? The project involves many stakeholders who have interdependent work streams. I’m currently using Excel but there must be a better way. TIA!!

Do you mention who your clients are in interviews? I can never tell what the right way to do this is. I usually say something along the lines of “a large client in X industry/vertical” because dropping the client name feels tacky? But at the same time, my main client is niche and knowing who is kind of vital to understand the work.

Need advice. I have a client who just can't stop getting in their own way. They push us to turn a document quickly (in this case, an LPA for a new fund), and then take weeks to review, following up with a 50-page chart setting forth the LPA sections and detailed questions/comments. I can't keep anyone on this client because their process is so brutally and unnecessarily time-consuming, and I can't keep pulling all-nighters just trying to respond to all the questions. What do I do?

I’m a bit stuck. Started at an agency almost a year ago, but mainly adaptation work for one big global client: and I don’t know how to pull that work together for my book in a way that makes sense.
