Poor accounts aren't worth managing. Like poor employees aren't worth employing.
There is a point when I hope everyone realizes just because someone wants to trade their money for your time, doesn't entitle them to it. I evaluate a client before taking them on like they evaluate me as an option to do business with. And every year I evaluate again. Sometimes it's hard to have the balls to let clients go because you are not sure where the next one is coming from, but you may soon see how freeing yourself from a few bad clients a year can open up you and your business to previously unseen opportunities.
Bad accounts are anchors to growth. It took me almost a decade to realize that.
