Client: I am calling you about the folders you designed and printed.
Me: Yes… Client: The prints are exactly as you showed us in the concept. Me: Yes… Client: We don’t want that..... Ha. Being a graphic designer in holography, we get precisely that ^^^ scenario time and time again. Client and/or salesperson/agent invariably don't read through everything on the proposal/s! :facepalm: :wall: |

Me: Yes… Client: We don’t want that..... even if only 30% a real it worth a quick read Just had an exchange like the one above. Client: I don't like the font you have chosen for the menu or the logo you have used. Me: They are exactly the same as the mock-up I got from your graphic designer that was approved and signed off by you Clinet: Yes well I don't like them any more, please change them Me: Er.... change your company logo? Client: Yes, I am sure you will come up with something great, just do it... the site needs to go live in a few days Me; Shouldn't I consult your graphic designer? Client: If you must, but he will only slow things down. :lol::lol: |
Client: I saw the press release you published. I don’t like the picture, please change it. Me: You’re holding today’s newspaper with the article in your hands, right? Client: What’s your point? Dave |
Classic.
I can wholeheartedly empathise with that, f1. :thumb: |
:lol1: Enjoyed that.

Another one from a few years ago. Absolutely true.
Client: This website you generated for us, it doesn't really do what we want. Me: OK, in what way? Client: Well the info pages are great but all this bit about user registration for companies and another one for individuals and the automatic search for registered users and mailouts and auto matching companies and users and the uplaod to our internal system... well it's all too automated and web based and lacks the personal touch. Me: Well it does exactly what it says in the spec and that was generated after several meetings with you Client: Well I wasn't really concentrating in those meetings and I have never seen the spec. Me: But you signed the order against it Client: Oh was that the 20 page thing in with the order form, do you really think I have time to read things like that? Me: Oh dear! |
Oh dear F1, these must be a little close to home
Client: I don’t like that blue, make it a bit lighter. Just a small bit! I send the (unchanged) file back to her. Client: Hmm, ok thats too light, make it a bit darker. I send the same file - again, unchanged. Client: Ok just ad a hint of brightness and we’re done! Again, same file, unchanged. Client: Perfect! Has anyone told you that you are amazing at what you do? |
and bill her for all the slight colour adjustments...:D :D
