additional thoughts
There exist many designers in different disciplines. Good designers, which understand the suggestions of the clients and can develop them, are rare.
Customer loyalty is important to me! Self-employed and small-business designers have to work hard to sell their work.Unfortunately the wide general public just knows mostly big design agencies or product designers (e.g. automobile designers).
