Client communication can be difficult for many designers. Sometimes the client has a basic understanding of the design process, and they know what they want (or what they don\u2019t want). However, in other scenarios, the client\u2019s feedback and approach resembles, \u201cI\u2019ll know it when I see it. You know the spark? The gut feeling? I\u2019ll just know it\u201d. Or, we must say, the never-ending client-designer feedback loop! This is where the trouble starts, but there is a bright side to everything.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Learning how to decode client\u2019s feedback through unclear or sometimes unreasonable briefs can make your life, as a designer, A LOT easier. It also results in happier and more satisfied clients and faster workflows when the feedback can be rightly understood and acted upon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on our experiences, we have faced different challenges when it comes to decoding client\u2019s feedback. You may have already encountered somewhat the same scenarios (or have yet to). Keep reading to explore how to navigate and positively incorporate different types of feedback in your designs. Let\u2019s hit the ground running!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Client<\/p>\n

\u201cThis looks awesome, except umm\u2026.\u201d<\/b><\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Content” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Sailec Light||||||||” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”17px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop”]<\/p>\n

What comes after \u201cexcept umm\u201d is a signal to get ready for another round of changes. This kind of feedback can either ask for a simple tweak or a series of suggestions that breaks up the entire design theme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, if a client sends feedback saying, \u201cThis looks awesome, except the font size is too small, maybe if you could make it a bit bigger?\u201d. In this scenario, you may opt to increase the base font size. In most cases, this will work out without breaking the overall flow of the design.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other times, decreasing or increasing the font size may put off the whole scale and placement of design elements. In such a scenario, it is always better to educate your client on how it would look after increasing or decreasing the font size (or whatever minor change they require). Visually showing them the changes will make them understand that the simple changes might not complement the overall look of the final product.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

BETTER TO GET TO THE ROOT OF AN ISSUE<\/b><\/h5>\n

It\u2019s better to dig in deeper and figure out the root cause of the problem. Sometimes, minor tweaks or changes don\u2019t really solve the problem that your client has brought up. In the scenario of the font size being too small, the main issue can be with the readability. So, instead of increasing the font size, you may perhaps want to change the font or adjust changes in other settings such as adjusting line-height or individual character spacing, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIn some cases, it is important to show your clients what will happen to the overall design with repetitive changes, maybe even the product flow, because some changes are pretty impactful – educating the client is very important.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It is best if you can ask them what they liked about the original design (and what they didn\u2019t) instead of focusing on one element of the design. This will get you a better understanding of what other changes you might be able to address those underlying issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, the client might not always know what may and may not go along with their brand. So, as a designer, it\u2019s your duty to educate them on what will suit their brand the best in terms of the overall design. Show them real-life examples of brands working in the same niche, what has worked for those brands, and what hasn\u2019t. Showing them actual examples will make it easier for them to understand the importance of going in a specific direction and might make them rethink. However, if they still don\u2019t want to pursue your proposed ideas, then you can go in a direction that seems appropriate to your clients because, in the end, \u201cthe customer is always right.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They know better about what they want for their brand. Your duty, as a designer, should be to read the client\u2019s mind and try to come up with something that aligns with their expectations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Micromanagement Scenario<\/span><\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Content” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Sailec Light||||||||” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”17px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop”]<\/p>\n

Nobody likes to be micromanaged regardless of what domain you are working in. However, in the design industry, it is different because, as a designer, you must understand your client\u2019s perspective and come up with designs that resonate with their requirements.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s talk about a few of the scenarios!<\/span><\/p>\n

Scenario One:<\/b><\/h5>\n

Sometimes there’s something seriously wrong with the design that you have made, and the client tries to fix that problem themself, perhaps because you still weren\u2019t able to design something that the client wanted even after the repetitive briefs and brainstorming sessions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of creating a fuss with the client and a series of back and forth changes, it is better to sit down with your client (virtually works) and ask for more general feedback. For example, what are their opinions on the overall aesthetics, what parts of it do they like, and what are the pain points? After that, you can dive into each pain point and try finding a solution for it (because every problem has a solution). Using this broad information and their existing feedback will help you understand the underlying problem and help you fix the design in a way that actually works and is acceptable to the client.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Seeking and understanding that kind of feedback usually results in top-quality information that will eventually boost your designs and results in a win-win situation for you and your client.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Scenario Two:<\/b><\/h5>\n

The scenario you wouldn\u2019t want to be a part of is where your clients would have to jump in and do the work for you. Being a designer, it is your responsibility to understand the essence behind the design brief. If you think there isn\u2019t enough information shared, use your brainstorming skills and try to comprehend the brief in the right direction. Double-check with your clients to make sure that your design process is aligned with their expectations. There\u2019s a way out for every situation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Heading” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”Sailec Bold||||||||” header_3_font_size=”26px” header_3_line_height=”33px” custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” header_3_font_size_tablet=”” header_3_font_size_phone=”22px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_line_height_tablet=”” header_3_line_height_phone=”28px” header_3_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone”]<\/p>\n

\u201cLooks good, but this isn\u2019t really our style\u2026.\u201d<\/b><\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Content” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Sailec Light||||||||” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”17px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop”]<\/p>\n

This kind of feedback may seem frustrating and demotivating at first, but if you think about it, it\u2019s actually kind of helpful and uplifting for your growth. It generally means that your client liked the work and overall design execution, but they just think it doesn\u2019t gel in with their brand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, it all comes down to branding, and, being a designer, it is really important to keep the designs afloat within their branding style and guidelines.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In such a scenario, you can ask your client if they could share some relevant examples of the design styles that they think would work as a better fit. Moreover, to better understand their approach, you can ask them to describe what they are looking for in terms of the personality of their products or brand, etc.? For example, do they want to keep it fun and light? Informational or casual? Glamorous or minimal? Try to scrape off any information that can help you design a piece of work that truly resonates with their brand\u2019s personality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
