When I started work for a large greeting card company, they had type designers who handled all they type on cards. An illustrator would work with a designer to create the imagery and then it would be handed off to a type designer to add the copy in pretty and readable type.
Because I had come to the company with design and type experience, I was privileged to be able to design my own type treatments. It wasn't until the company started offering type training to designers that I realized how little I truly knew. The four-week intensive training was… intensive and run by people who had over twenty years experience with solely designing type for cards. I went into the training feeling I wasn't going to learn anything I didn't already know but I was wrong.

Great service is the pillar of every business and one can achieve success and maintain it only through quality service. A host of techniques contributes to business success but the foundation of every business is quality work. Only quality can make a business move along. Offering great service is as important for employees as it is for an entire business. This is true for both salaried and freelance employees. As long as you are providing good quality service your value will be acknowledged; if you fail to maintain this quality you will go out of business. Even if one encounters a successful break by chance, to maintain that success you need great service because opportunities for success are not continuous.
The main goal of employees is to satisfy clients by offering good service. While good service helps salaried employees gain success in their growth within an enterprise, freelancers build their reputation and gain future projects through good service. Therefore, it is very important to offer good service to your clients. Only quality service can be the strong base of a successful business.

For every assignment, for every project, whether you are a freelancer or work a staff job, it’s of the utmost importance that you document every aspect of what is required to complete the project both correctly and in a timely manner. It’s also important that both you as well as the client note all of the milestones with required actions. The same applies to your department and other departments within the company for which you work.
Too many times I’ve heard people complain of a misunderstanding on what was needed on the project and due to a missed milestone, delayed submission of images or copy or just an argument over payments and project scope. While some people think this is all covered in a contract, which many people don’t have, the creative brief is the “Holy Book” of the project. I’m not being flippant about religious texts, mind you. I’m putting an emphasis on the importance of having everything written down and agreed upon by all parties to make sure the project runs smoothly and everyone involved ends up pleased with the results.
