Work prototypes
A Client mostly goes by referrals and prototypes, as they need to ensure that the design firm they are doing business with has the needed experience, along with getting to know former client comments. Therefore, it is important for the design firm to convince them that they are making an appropriate choice, which can be achieved via communicating effectively and displaying your work in a proper manner.

This is something which is always ensures happy clients, when the delivery is on time and the firm does not appear to be making a fake commitment, which many seem to make. It is professional to plan properly and make promises which are deliverable within a certain time-frame, to get into your clients good books.
It is a known fact that the relationship between a client and the designer is an essential one and is also a complex one to manage. It is therefore the designer’s job to fill them in with proper details and progress on each aspect of the design process.
