Dearies, we have a cute client who enjoys tossing out ideas. “Let’s meet up!”; “Let’s shop together!”
Cute, but the cutest is the veiled attempts to get freebies from this wisened old Frump. The last attempt was “Gee, how would you package this as a marketing plan?” That was preceded by “What comes to mind when you see this particular logo?”
Dear client: I’m so happy to give you my expert opinion, and my invoice is in the mail. If you’d rather not pay, I can forward over my snarky, humourous opinion, which is always free.
Otherwise, stop Frumping me over.
