Most website project delays aren’t caused by bad code - they’re caused by communication and decision-making issues.

In this episode, Matt and Mike flip the script and talk about how clients can be better partners to their web developers. From vague feedback and false urgency to scope creep and decision-by-committee, we break down the most common developer pet peeves, why they matter, and what small communication changes can dramatically reduce costs, speed up timelines, and improve final results.

This isn’t about blaming clients - it’s about understanding how modern web projects actually work.
