		<description>It&#039;s easier to just tell the clients at the beginning.  They expect me to be a stylist and I give them that.  I also tell them that I&#039;m a problem solver too.  If I steak out my territory right from the beginning, I find my clients are a lot more receptive to my decision making process.   They&#039;re always suprised, and always delighted.</description>

		<description>Hi Eric,

what you are saying touches the heart and soul of the advertising industry too. Over here, there are lots of stylists. They make so much ad-crap that clients no longer trust the agencies to build their sales. And the worse part is they don&#039;t know they are stylists. They feed on award-annuals and websites like ihaveanidea.org and confuse themselves for the creative genuises they are.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Good ideas take a lot of work and critical thinking...&lt;/strong&gt;


  Designers solve problems. Where style is concerned with aesthetics, as they
  relate to a particular cultural context, design treats this as a secondary
  concern. Design can be beautiful, ugly, or banalâ€“it doesnâ€™t matter.
