But it’s not just marketers who ask for “down and dirty” from their PR agencies and consultants.  A number of agency prospects ask me for the “down and dirty” version of a new business plan or a workshop.  As you’ve pointed out, it’s just their way of saying “I don’t want to spend money on this,” which is just another way of telling themselves, their agencies, and yes, the universe, “this really isn’t important.”  Consultants, agency owners/leaders, trainers and freelancers should have the confidence in their worth of their offering to run, do not walk, away from clients like this.

Lassoing those factors and distilling them down into a workable plan is part of the battle. But we have to know when to push back to make sure the basic approach is sound.
