Ask What do you do when a project drags on for months because the client keeps delaying their feedback?

[Edward22]

One common issue in freelancing is when a project stays open for too long because the client is slow to respond. This can affect your schedule and even your income since you cannot fully close the job. I feel it is important to set clear timelines from the start, but delays still happen. How do you handle this kind of situation without sounding rude, and do you include any rules in your agreement to manage long delays?
