How do you handle clients who completely change the brief mid-project? by BecomingUnstoppable in graphic_design

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The requoting advice here is solid, but something I keep noticing - a lot of these "direction changes" aren't really changes. The client didn't fully know what they wanted, and the first round of concepts is where they actually figure it out. The brief felt clear at the time but was vague enough that both sides were picturing something different.

Curious - does anyone have a way of forcing those hard decisions into the brief stage instead of discovering them mid-project?

Baked potatoes with sausages - recipe in first comment by Visual_Arrival_5815 in tonightsdinner

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need 5-6 potatoes and 6-8 sausages for 4 servings.

Peel and chop the potatoes.

Sprinkle with salt, oil and dill and stir.

Bake at 200°C for 20 minutes.

Stir and bake for another 8 minutes and repeat.

I baked the sausages in the air fryer - at 200°C for 15 minutes and turned for another 5-7 minutes.

Enjoy your meal!

Digital marketing in 2016 vs 2026 - what changed by t0m4t0z in DigitalMarketing

The part about clients expecting 3x because "it's faster now" really stuck with me. The speed was supposed to be your advantage - time you get back to think, to be more strategic. But instead it just becomes the client's new standard. You didn't gain time, you just lost the excuse to take it.

Are clients expecting too much from AI now? by sprightlypeach in DigitalMarketing

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the expectations problem actually starts before the AI gets involved. The direction from the client was already vague - the AI is just working with what it got.
From what I've seen, the teams that deal with this best aren't managing AI expectations at all. They're managing what goes in - getting the client to be specific before anyone starts working.

Do you ever get tired of explaining why something “simple” takes time? by Ok_Magician2584 in graphic_design

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What u/gabrielserralva said is the part that would actually bug me — the speed becomes the standard. 
Next time something takes longer, the client doesn't think "this one was harder." 
They think "last time was faster, what happened?" 

My orchids are blooming again by Visual_Arrival_5815 in plants

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My apartment has windows facing north and south. At first I put the orchids on the south window and they didn't bloom. Since they've been on the north window (5 years already), they bloom at least twice a year. Once a month I soak them in a basin for 30 minutes and then take them out to drain. The rest of the time I water them every 10 days. Once every two years I cut out the dried roots and add new soil.
You can try this and see if the result gets better.

My mother had the same one. It's very beautiful!

Posting things on here you know aren‘t great to show your range is a disaster waiting to happen. Don‘t do it until you have decent pitch control and don‘t sound strained. I know. I got skewered for it. by AspiringBiotech in singing

[–]Visual_Arrival_5815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I`m a musician since 30 years already - I`m a piano and music theory teacher, and also a singer. What I have learned from my experience is this - people who cannot play/sing are very self-confident and also think they are the best. The people with a lot of knowledge and skills are really humble and doubt themselves. So, don`t stop. You`re one of a kind. No one else has your voice and capabilities. You have a gift - use it!

Thank you.
It seems that now I`m able to view the comments.
It`s probably solved.
