In this article, we'll explore practical tips on how to provide feedback that empowers the web designer and maximises project efficiency.
- Be specific and clear: When giving feedback, it always helps a lot to explain why something doesn't please you or why you feel something should be improved. Articulating your thoughts clearly and specifically is a great help, for example, identify the elements you like and the points that need to be improved. Something like: "I really like the colour scheme, but could we try a different font for better readability?".
- Show examples of references and images: Visual references can help a lot. Sharing with the team examples of other sites or graphic elements that you like can be very useful. This helps the creative team better understand your aesthetic preferences and expectations.
- Provide context and objectives: It can be useful to share information about your company's objectives, your target audience and your brand identity. The more the web designer understands the context of your business, the better they can adapt the design to your objectives. You can describe the purpose of each page/section of the site to effectively guide the design process.
- Highlight what works: Recognising and highlighting what you like about the design presented is also a way of helping web designers in their creative process. Positive feedback helps to reinforce successful aspects.
- Consolidate feedback: Collecting feedback from everyone involved in the project and consolidating it in a document or email can help organise the process and distribute information. This avoids duplicate comments and helps prioritise revisions effectively.
Effective feedback is the basis of successful collaboration between clients and web designers. These tips help you to be able to clearly communicate your vision, preferences and expectations, allowing the creative team to design a website that exceeds your expectations and goals.
