Give a client three designs of the same standard.
I have just had an email back from a client saying they love all 3 of my esigns and want to do a "mash up" of all three as the solution: Header from one, Nav from another, body from the last.
I considered each element on every design very carefully to sit with the other.....
fer fucks sake.
I will remember to make one better than the others, and "sell" it more than the others next time

This is a classic problem. The issue is NOT 3 designs of the same standard. This is the ideal situation – as we all know that if you put something with less design rationale and sophistication, that will be chosen.
The problem has come somewhere in your directing them through the design process, likely. You need to explain that choosing all 3 is NOT an option a- and then explain why.

by any chance dancer, have you recently started working more with marketing middle men than directly with clients? ;D

the marketing department no less. But she is not the problem, ot's the bored of director saying "I like this bit" & "well I like that line".
THe direction was fine when I presented it to the marketing lady we both agreed tha one of my designs (the "left field" approach was the way forward).
The only advantage is that I siad I will have to redesign this again with all their considerations in mind
