when a client says "make it pop" they don't mean saturation. they mean confidence. add contrast, remove elements, make the type work harder. "pop" is almost always a subtraction.

quiet client win of the week: we convinced a series-b startup to remove the words "AI-powered" from the top of their landing page. now it's just... what the product does. crazy.

clients pay for two things: the work, and the peace of mind that the work will happen. underpricing the second is why studios burn out.

the difference between a client and a partnership is who feels bad when the project falls behind. if it's just you, it's not a partnership.
