===========================
the design train manifesto
in the late 90s there was a book and site that came out called the cluetrain manifesto...and it changed businesswell I am writing a design train manifesto.....
I am starting it with these...you may continue....will post the best 100 on my site for public consumption...
1) We will not lower our standards and prices because the "market demands it"
2) We will not let templates become the standard of design
3) Original means Original
4) We won't promise a client 100 hours of work and try to fit it into only 40.
5) When clients don't know we will tell them
6) When clients don't understand we will explain.
7) When clients can't see it, we won't design it for free.
8) We will get everything in writing.
9) We will charge for spec work.
10) Our ideas are worth something not just our PSD's.
11) If a client says there are kids out there working for $10 an hour, we will tell them to find one.
12) We will not allow the oversaturated design market to diminish the quality of our work by forcing us to work quicker.
13) When a client asks for an estimate on the spot we will tell them "we will get back to them"
14) It is never our fault!ok add please.......
