For us, client is the next in the process chain. The same I wrote into your other post is what we do. If you are talking about client from the point of view to sell something then take a look to Solution Selling selling method.

Clients can become difficult or hard to work with for several reasons, so it’s important to remember that conflicts and mistakes can happen. First of all, remain calm and address conflict as a question and work towards resolutions instead of defending yourself.

Clients for the most part are always difficult but from my experience, I noticed that the more you communicate and educate the client, the more things will get smooth over the course of the project.

A client's role during project development and implementation is crucial to the success of the project. Project managers, however, often lack support from the client organization's top management. If you’re a project manager, get involved with the people and process, not just the paperwork! It’s your job to balance the line between defending your team and the project, and making your clients happy

The worst client is the one with hidden agenda, all you can do is keep doing the project, then claim!
