Hello.
I wanted to ask designer's opinions on this. I recently emailed somebody for a logo design and gave them a brief of what it was for and what kind of brand identity I was going for along with some logo references. I explained that I wanted only a logo designed and that if it's something I like I would be interested in paying for branding design.
After asking the price for the logo, I was told to name a price by the designer's agent (as he does not speak english - she deals with international clients) and we agreed on $300. The designer came up with some rough sketches. I explained what I liked. He then sent another few rough sketches. I explained which one I liked and to try a different variation as to compare so we can choose the final from there. He then sent the next rough sketch but ignoring my variation request. I then thanked him and politely asked if he could try the variation I asked.
His agent then emailed saying that he cannot work constantly on rough sketches and that if I wanted more she would have to ask for an additional fee and then also stated that once they send a final image (vectorized etc) they can no longer send any more revisions.
The thing is his work is great, its pretty much exactly what I want but I feel as though the process isn't very professional. I feel it is a bit unfair that after a final vectorized image is sent I cannot get any more revisions.
Just wanted your opinions.
PS. The agency is legitimate and seems to have done work for some big clients so perhaps the asking price was too low?
Thanks!
