I think of every job as having six steps ----
1. Interview with client (what does he want?) -- create a Job Sheet
2. Design (and approval of proof)
3. Cut
4. Weed
5. Tape (app tape)
6. Apply to substrate
I am posting this here today because I skipped the approval on my last job -- the client had provided me with all the details, it was a simple sign, and he told me to go ahead and just do it.
Hah!
The client specifically said to use a Serif font (i.e. Times Roman or Garamond, etc.) but when the sign was delivered, all ready to put up, he looked at it and said "It's not bold enough -- please re-do it Sans-Serif, I'm sorry"
Approvals, kids, approvals.
