Quick Poll

Posted on December 10, 2008 by lwidmer

For those of you who have worked with clients who have brought in another party somewhere in the middle or toward the end of the process – what’s your policy on third-party review of your work? Is that a deal breaker or are you fine with it? Why or why not?

Thoughts?

    It’s in the contract — I work with ONE point person and ONE point person only. Dilution of the process = additional cost.

    I learned that one the hard way.

    Angie, Devon and I have been in these situations way too often. I ask the question for the benefit of new people to the industry. I already know the answer. No third parties! :))

    My single experience with late-in-the-deal third party review ended in litigation, so I have a pretty nasty opinion of it. But . . . I guess it would really depend on the circumstances (and no, I don’t know what those are!).
