Episode notes
Scope Creep Is A Growth Signal
- Scope creep signals client interest and potential revenue growth if managed intentionally.
- The real issue is unmanaged scope creep that eats profits when not paid for or chosen deliberately.
Seal Agreements With Sales Exclusions
- Add sales exclusions or assumptions to the final agreement and have the client initial them.
- This closes ambiguous wiggle room and prevents repeat misinterpretation across clients.

- Karl used that example to show how to stall, evaluate, and channel odd requests through strategy meetings.
