Being in the business since time-consuming ruling pen forms, photostats, pasteup mechanicals and Magic Markers, computers are a real boon. It's clueless clients who are my biggest headache. No idea what is involved in the process, and no desire to understand. Right now, I'm trying to explain to a client why I need to get paid my $2000 kill fee for initial work on a proposed Website, and not the $500 he thinks the considerable effort is worth. (Extenuating circumstances bypassed the usual up-front deposit and estimate.)

The best clients are those who either have a basic understanding of and respect for the creative process; or they are open to learning on the fly. Unfortunately, they're scarcer than creative professionals would like.
