Yeah we all sympathise I guess....but maybe think about this:
a) If you arent strong enough to sell the whole concept, then thats not the clients problem,
b) maybe the concept isn't as strong as you think - sure the client breaking it apart is probably just as bad, but why not try working WITH him/her...if the 1st concept isn't working, and the client is resistant to change, then try working with them for an alternative
c) You're a designer, not a fine artist. If you want to be precious about your work and expect to get everything your own way, then this probably isn't the profession for you.
Sorry, in my position as a CD (and having worked for well over a decade) I've come across so many of these 'poor me' storys, and believe me I sympathise and I still get aggravated when clients do the same to me. But you learn not to moan about it - try working through the problem WITH them instead of AGAINST them.
Sure we ALL hate clients right? And who pays your damn salary, the Red Cross?
