There is a really easy way to do this, just tell the truth. Never sugar coat, never tell them what they want to hear, you aren't their cuddle monkey nor is that the role you should play.

People need a leader and they need to know that someone is in charge. If you don't have that from the beginning you never will and that client is a just going to waste their money. My clients aren't late, they do what I say, or they are gone. Demand it and then all your clients become dream clients.
