@Courtney – That’s good feedback. I’m glad you like the new direction.

@Gina – I used to have a peak performance client (John Eliot), and he could never mention his clients, even though they were REALLY big names in the sports industry.

@Stephen – True. After the heat of the moment is past, it’s harder to write with passion — or even remember to write!

Ryan,
I know what you mean. I love the success lessons that we can all learn from my professional athlete clients, but it seems the “bigger” they are, the more they treasure their option of total confidentiality. I end up speaking about business growth even more than how to win a fight in the UFC. I happen to enjoy everything you post.

I completely relate. Although usually when I say I’ll wait a few months to make a post that involves a specific project or client, I forget within a few months. :)

G’Day Ryan,

I can identify with this because I’ve had good and bad experiences as a freelancer. It’s kind of a nasty catch. You’d like to share everything you can but then you also want to respect your clients too.

It’s hard to share your experiences when you know your clients will read every word you type!

But still, I like how you switched your blog over the years to the business growth theme. It’s all good to write about copywriting if you want to attract copywriters… but not every client is a copywriter!
