How do you deal with client feedback?

Client feedback. Like it or not, it comes with every project. Sometimes clients give positive feedback that keeps the project moving along, while other times they may throw a curveball and change direction at the last minute.

In episode 7 of Building a Brand, the design team at Blind are faced with a challenge. With only one round of revisions left, Josh, owner of Hamilton Family Brewery, shares that he's not too happy with the current direction of the logo. Determined to get it right, the team has one last chance to design something that not only makes the client happy, but also captures the brewery's new identity.

what is a creative brief?

The key to a good creative brief is to clearly articulate

  • The project goals and success metrics
  • Highlight the key insights from the discovery session
  • The intended user or customer, and their needs
  • The design challenge and creative parameters to work within
  • The brand's attributes
  • Task assignments for each team member
