From the Freelance Files: “The Innovators”

Inquiry:

Hello, my partners and I are working on getting a new venture up and running and we need to get a website built. This website will be the main face of our company. We are looking for it to be innovative and original to stand out to our target market. I have looked at your portfolio and am impressed with your work. We have some ideas of what we would like the site to do but we are looking for a designer with an original style to build it for us.

Translation: 

The words “partners” and “venture” indicate that we have two and a half MBAs between the three of us and only the vaguest notion of what we want. We’ll probably try to offer you fairy stock in our unicorn company in exchange for dollar bills to build our “innovative” and “original” website.
