One tip that might sound like common sense is to always provide more value than the gig promises. The saying "under-promise, over-deliver" perfectly captures this idea. 

For sellers who offer consultations or any service involving a Zoom or Google Meet call with a buyer, I’d say 95% of the time, if we’ve blocked an hour, we end up going over. Time is your most valuable asset as a freelancer, and it’s equally important for the person you’re working with. 

Using a phrase like, "I know we're at time, but do you have a little more time to keep talking?" achieves three things: 

It subtly lets them know you’re going beyond the allotted time. 

It reinforces that you’re over-delivering on the agreed service. 

It frames the extra time as something valuable that they’re choosing to engage in.
