Ask What do you do when a client asks you to work outside your agreed freelancing scope?

[Brendan]

Scope creep is something most freelancers deal with at some point, and it rarely announces itself loudly. It usually starts with a small request that seems harmless, then another, and before you know it you are doing twice the work for the same pay. Some freelancers say yes to keep the client happy, while others draw a firm line from the start. Have you ever had a client push beyond what was agreed, and how did you handle it?
