When it comes to running a web development business you'll have to establish an online presence, grow and maintain a client base, create an amazing portfolio, and make sure that every single one of your clients leaves happy, bonus points if they come back.

Assuming you have a general idea of how to do the above (and if not I just so happen to teach other courses on them) this class goes on to cover a breadth of more advanced topics such as how to price your projects (per hour or per project), legality (contract or no contract), development methodology, and more answers to questions you might have when you first start out.

This course offers a nice mix of what I have learned in growing my own web development business, now passed on to you.

What you'll learn:

Use advanced best practices to maintain your businesses growth

Recognize red flags for clients before you start working with them

Figure out the optimal pricing configuration for your rates

Handle client meetings in person

Tell when clients are not likely to accept an estimate or proposal

Make long term decisions about which clients to retain and which to lose
