Clients From Hell

141 Notes

Me: “Well sir, the total for your new logo, business cards and menu designs is $350.”

Client: “Are you kidding me? The reason I chose a student designer was to get something cheap, plus help you out for your portfolio. I could have went to a professional and paid much less.”

Me: “Um, that’s not true. I spent a lot of time dealing with your daughter who insisted on multiple revisions to the logo, and you ended up with a look that everyone is pleased with. This same project might have cost you 10 times the amount I’m charging you. I think it’s a great deal.”

Client: “I highly doubt that. It’s just words and colors. Plus, our satisfaction has nothing to do with the amount we pay you. I’ll send you a check for what I think is fair.”

I got a check for 100 bucks. With “here you go asshole” written in the memo.

    I rarely get to do external work, I’ve never done anything paid. I’m really sick of the “portfolio” excuse, regardless...

    Um… for all that, $350 is a pretty killer deal. And the design student had better have made damn sure he got paid what...
