Graphic Designer
If you have a client who is unable to approve a proposed design without putting her stamp on it, just put an obvious error in the proposal: a logo that’s too large, a font that’s too small, or a few judiciously seeded typos. The client requests the change and feels she’s done her part—and your design, which was perfect all along, sails through to approval.


Haha! I use a variation of this on an almost daily basis! Haha! My favourite trick is to use a really gross colour, especially with female clients, they always notice and are so proud that they noticed! Too funny!
