How do you stop projects from stalling because of missing client content?

​

Hey guys 👋

​Quick question for the freelancers and dev/designers here. Almost all of my project delays come down to one thing: waiting for clients to send their copy, images, and brand assets.

​They usually dump half-broken Drive folders, send raw text in emails, or completely forget core files.

​How do you actually deal with this bottleneck on your end? Do you use forms, strict contract penalties, or just chase them until they respond? Curious to hear how you manage it!
