Working virtually on these projects can make it even harder. However, there is hope! In this session participants will learn how to ensure everyone working on a project is working together to make awesome things happen.

Unfortunately, many of us struggle with an important part of a project \u2013 communication with our clients. It is an often overlooked piece of the puzzle, but it is directly correlated with outcomes and how the client feels we did our job. In this talk, we will look at communicating with clients and managing expectations in three broad phases of a project \u2013 pitching\/planning, development, and launching\/troubleshooting. Specifically, we will look at steps that will make the client feel involved and important. This level of involvement and communication will help keep clients happy through the entire process, giving us an outstanding outcome.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.tv\/2015\/10\/23\/christoph-trappe-how-to-use-the-jetpack-plugin-to-build-audience\/\">Christoph Trappe: How to Use the Jetpack Plugin to Build\u00a0Audience<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>The Jetpack plugin has come a long way and can help us grow our audience through:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>E-newsletters<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Automatic social sharing<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Build-in metrics that are easy to review<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Automated related posts<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>And many other great features.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Designer\/Developer Track<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.tv\/2015\/11\/17\/josh-collinsworth-be-classless-optimizing-your-css\/\">Josh Collinsworth: Be Classless \u2013 Optimizing Your CSS for\u00a0WordPress<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>It\u2019s easy to get caught up adding HTML classes (and IDs) to each and every element we want to style, but the fact is, WordPress helps us out with specific targeting by adding its own classes and IDs to certain elements on every page and post. Cleverly utilizing WordPress\u2019s default page build along with CSS\u2019s pseudo classes and combinators makes it possible to be highly specific with our targeted styles while leaving the original HTML completely alone. In short, if we look for ways, we can often avoid adding more classes and wrapping text in spans to have WordPress and CSS do the work for us.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.tv\/2015\/11\/17\/trevan-hetzel-super-fast-wp-themes\/\">Trevan Hetzel: Super Fast WordPress\u00a0Themes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Today\u2019s web users have the need for speed.
