If clients know the budget is not in compliance with the amount of work on the table, no would be your best answer. Ninety percent of our work is innovation, and there are a lot of hours that need to be put in. Otherwise, you’re just doing the same old, and there is no progress.” -Creative Director of ArtVersion, Goran Paun
Paun emphasizes the importance of clear understanding and realistic budgeting in project development.

Paun suggests that if a client’s budget does not align with the workload, declining the project is advisable.
