Client: ”The site is looking great! However, I’m a bit confused. I thought you said the design was done.”
Me: ”Yep, the ‘visual’ design is complete. Was there something bothering you about it?”
Client: ”Oh no! The design is great, everyone loves it! However, it doesn’t seem to be finished. There are a bunch of pages that look wrong.”
Me: ”How so? Could you show me?”
[The client proceeds to click through his site and eventually comes to an external link that takes the user to Amazon.com]
Client: ”This page looks nothing like our site.”
Me: ”[somewhat confused] That’s because it’s not your site.”
Client: ”But we just got here from our site. Can’t you make it look like ours?”
Me: ”I’m afraid not. That would be like walking over to your neighbor’s home and re-landscaping their yard and painting their house to match your own.”
Client: ”Oh…well that sucks.”
