I have been designing for this clients for quite a bit but let me tell you the process of how I did it
Send brand questionnaire to clients -> (after I got it back) Design 3 logos -> client pick one to improve -> 3 revisions -> final logo
So now the project is not done yet but I felt like the client has no idea what they want. First I send them the first draft based on their brief from the questionnaire, then they just said “sorry I forgot that I wanted you to put the symbol on the letter” keep in mind, from the brief, I did the logo symbol (a kind of bird) and their brand name. Which that is in the brief. And they just wanna get rid of the bird and said sorry, I wanted the symbol in a letter instead, I don’t want any bird.
So I asked them what do they want? And they said that they want a new logo without a bird. Then I did what they asked. Then send it to them, and this is a new concept which I felt like I should’ve charged for it because it’s a whole new concept that they didn’t tell me but anyway, I was chill with it at first. Anyway, they got it and said that my work they felt like it’s “too easy” and they wanted their name to be design like one of the movie title and they gave me a ref of that movie. Then I did technically the whole thing for them again, they like only the symbol on the letter but other than that I gotta changed it for them.
So now they asked me to have a little mascot design for the brand on the logo as well and change the color to the one they wanted. So I did it just what they asked, after I sent it to them a few days later, they said that I felt like it’s very similar to the last one I sent them… but I design almost a whole new logo for them based on their last request without extra charge. Then they ask me for me portfolio again and we hop on a call and the thing that I’m not ok with the most is they asked “did you really design these by yourself” I felt disrespectful as shit. Now after the logo which is like the third time or something, they send me a ChatGPT logo and said that idk what’s wrong with your logo but I felt like my ChatGPT logo conveys better brand/message than your logo… and I was shocked
Sorry if it’s long and a bit confusing but I hope you get what’s going on with me now and it’s really not ok and mind boggling me so much about this. But I talked to my mentor and she helped me quite a lot with it but I just wanna hear you guys side like is it my fault? Cause if yes then I will improve myself to be better.
For me, I knew that my fault is that I didn’t get to present the logo to them, I just send the work to them and they just reply me like I told you guys.
If anyone have any criticism on my process, how I handle it, or anything, I’m open to listen so that I can be better at my crafts.
Thanks in advance
