Hello All!
I’m in a really confusing and frustrating situation.
We pitch and we win: clients loves creativity, strategies and ideas but they take forever to sign contracts. We currently have 4 clients on hold with approved quotes but not signed contracts. (One of the client is postponing for the past 15 months!!) They are not shopping around, they are not taking any assets or doing anything in house. Just waiting... I can’t tell you how much damage this is doing to the agency.
Any good advice?

Is anyone else facing issues with their visa due to COVID? I have been unable to renew my L1 due to the consulates being closed and as such have to leave the US until it can be resolved. I’m still hoping there is some kind of loophole!
