Hi! So I TOTALLY whiffed the estimate on that shutter job you may have seen me post about on fb. I need to write an email to the client updating them on my progress and asking for more money. Any tips? And is anyone willing to give it a read before I send it off? It's pretty much all on me - I just was really unrealistic about the time it would take.

When I have to do something like this I try and relate it to terms they can understand. Since my customers are doctors I might say after we opened up the patient we found infection in addition to the tumors. Or when their issue isn't being handled as quickly as they like I might say I prioritize issues like the ER where the pulled muscles get treated after the strokes.
With an auto mechanic I might say after we replaced the pump the belt which was on its last thread popped. Etc.
I'd be happy to review whatever you put together.
Laura - just now getting this thing typed up. Profile addy good?
Yes!

Replied. Basically I rearranged it a bit to take out a few "I" references and make it more project status report than personal report.
Can I get some comments on my speech, workshop, program brochure? It's here.
Also, what is up with PDF Embedder in Wordpress? I want readers on my website to be able to download it directly, but I can't seem to make it work.
The above link is via Google docs.
I really need feedback, which is by the way, NOT code for be nice or tell me what I want to hear. I really want constructive criticism.
I just downloaded it and will look at it today.
And insent with notes.
