    If you EVER buy design

    You may wanna get together with others who buy design and put together a designer blacklist. You may start with the designers who advocate for a client blacklist in this thread.

    Oh and hit me up if you need design work done. I can probably squeeze you in by the end of next week.

          Another sign of professionalism? First blacklist clients, then try degrading the ones pointing out that you're digging your own grave? Like, whoa!

              The blacklist idea doesnt work imho but bashing competition is bad for business, you never know when you need them

                  You are very professional sir, looking to bash on someone else's idea.. don't like it, don't join the club.. oh wait.. nobody would let you anyway!

                  I think the idea is great, and i fully support it, i got enough to worry about then dealing with deadbeat clients, and i've got a few over the last few years, and i would be HAPPY to save some time for other designers, if it saves them from being raped..

                  Glad you don't see it that way mr. Professional

                          Thanks for the good words. However, I'm not bashing them. I'm just pointing out for design clients that I will not have anything to do with such a blacklist, therefore I am directing them to that thread to see that I was arguing against it. As were AlienQ, eroswebmaster, LadyMischief, sextoyking and a few others. All of whom have been around for a while and have a good track record with serving clients. You cannot treat your clients like dirt, regardless of how demanding they are. In fact, I believe that demanding clients are very good for business, since they keep you on your toes and help you improve.

                                      Ever hear of 'BBB' ? it's there for a reason. Like someone mentioned, there are plenty of organizations in different industries, how should this be any different.

                                          Hey DX, don't even waste time on such things bro. Instead, start some "Would you hit it?" threads to satisfy the needs to trolls.

                                                      Well said. It happens with sponsors, sure people won't like it. That's because the truth is expelled in this kind of projects.

                                                                  The truth? The simple truth is that you're choosing to discriminate among clients on simple hearsaying. Who's to say that a certain designer won't have a stick up his ass one morning because his wife didn't blow him and decide to be an asshole with the client, resulting in the client becoming a pain in the ass FOR THAT DESIGNER? Which in turn puts the client on the blacklist? Sorry dude, it's simple discrimination, nothing else nothing more, and it's only because you're not prepaired to alter your business model to cater to your market's NEEDS. You'd rather have the market cater to yours, which is incredibly idiotic. Look around, tons of designers around, start turning away clients and you'll be out of business before you know it.

Who's to say that a certain designer won't have a stick up his ass one morning because his wife didn't blow him and decide to be an asshole with the client, resulting in the client becoming a pain in the ass FOR THAT DESIGNER? Which in turn puts the client on the blacklist?

So far design studios contacted me that make excellent designers. Envisionext, Nasty Jack, Team31 etc they all make top notch designs but there's always some clients that are not good for any designer

Now designer #1 tells the collective about this client, who will now turn to someone else. Should he turn from someone from this collective, they will have already judged him, based on the saying of designer #1, who's a trusted member. So the poor client gets to be a pain in the ass with another designer, who will treat him like a deadbeat from the very start.

                                                                                                  i don't know if the client failed to pay others, but he paid me thousands of dollars plus sent me some good referrals. if i had taken another writer's claims as facts, i'd have missed out. and i've never heard anyone else talk shit about that client - just the one writer.

                                                                                                          Apart from anything else, if you actually stick to that rule, I suspect your list will be very short. I'm also interested in what constitutes a "bad attitude"? Would that include someone who wants completion on time; work done to the standard of other designs in your portfolio; reasonably prompt responses to emails or whatever? Seriously, one of the tiresome but unavoidable aspects of dealing with clients is that many will not conform to your ideal profile. The whole point of the cliché "the customer is always right" is that sellers conform to customers' expectations, not the other way around.

                                                                                                          It's a sensible aim to seek to cooperate in certain areas with your competitors. As this industry matures, it will surely generate a designers' guild, graphic artists' association, or some such. But I guarantee the first successful organization will focus, not on weeding out dodgy customers, but rather on raising the standards of its members.

                                                                                                          Sure you will be caught by a flakey webmaster from time to time. That happens in any busiiness and there are ways a group can limit that somewhat. But right now professional designers (professional anybody come to that) are losing far more money because of webmasters who talk among themselves and sometimes come to the boards after getting p*ssed off with your less-than-professional competitors.

That's why they come to you, to serve them professionally and deliver your best work. They will expect, every single time, that you deliver the best you've yet done. It's up to you, as a professional, to guide them right and explain to them that certain things may work better or worse, depending on the situation at hand.

                                                                                                                                          If the client is pissed off and a pain in the ass, then it's YOUR fault as a service provider, for not making things clear and making sure there are NO misunderstandings or false expectations. If you can achieve that then you won't consider any clients to be a pain in the ass.

                                                                                                                                                  I do see a problem with somebody in the same industry as somebody trying to screw their competition over by openly telling people to black list designers.

                                                                                                                                                  Guess what though it is a good idea. I will start with blacklisting you.
                                                                                                                                                  Getting dicked over for payment is one thing, adding someone to the blacklist because they were a pain in the ass to deal with is another.

If you can achieve that then you won't consider any clients to be a pain in the ass.

I talked to a client of his that he owed $3k because he was too lazy to build up an MGP to 100k (yes, thats what he used to do).

                                                                                                                                                                  So he had to make up his debt in design work because he couldn't pay him back in cash. So I take it he is rather broke yes and possible have some sort of addiction issue.

Instead of creating threads get your own shit handled. Deny it all you want, and make up all sorts of excuses you want. Heck, why would I come up with his. If you weren't such a loud mouthed fuck I would have actually not posted this.
