I had a top client who send me on a 'mission' to make the ultimate Homepage design for his company... We had brainstorming and discussed the project entirely...

After mind mapping i came up with 4 (four) design studies!

after presenting these the client said he wants a 'solution' and no selection... 🙁

and again.....gaining experiences 😝

It is not uncommon for a client to then take your design & have a cheaper code jockey to make it for half your bid price. Clients think because it is electronically made, there is no real labor in creation. That's why you never give the client a real copy, but just show over the laptop.
