Ask How do you work effectively with a client in a very different time zone without constant delays?

[Edward22]

Working across time zones is one of those things that sounds manageable until you are actually waiting twelve hours for a simple answer. Meetings become harder to schedule, feedback takes longer to arrive, and small decisions can stretch across days. Some freelancers set shared windows where both sides are available, while others work more independently to reduce the need for constant check ins. There are ways to make it work, but it takes some real planning from the start. What has helped you most when working with clients who are many hours away?
