Working with clients on a tight deadline is tough. I was hired to design a logo for a business that was ready to launch yesterday.
It was like creating a model home on a week’s notice. I had to find an innovative solution.
So I decided to use a template to gain inspiration. When I presented the options to the client, they weren’t impressed.
I missed the due date and had to go back to the drawing board.
After better understanding my client’s needs and going through several drafts, I came up with a unique idea.
The new logo was a hit.
Plus, their satisfaction resulted in more work and glowing referrals.
Pushing back on unrealistic deadlines and managing client expectations is crucial.
