Are you stuck in endless revision cycles that seem to make your creative work worse, not better?

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

  • The psychology behind why feedback feels like a personal attack (and how to change that)
  • The revolutionary Feedback Funnel Method that prevents backwards revisions
  • Why the 3:1 feedback ratio is scientifically proven to improve client relationships
  • How to implement "windmill dates" that protect your timeline without alienating clients
  • The Goldilocks Principle: Why "just right" beats "perfect" every time
  • Practical tools for visual and video feedback that eliminate confusion

FEATURED RESOURCE: 📖 "Thanks for the Feedback" by Douglas Stone and Sheila Heen - The definitive guide to receiving feedback well and structuring it effectively for your creative business.

The average creative project goes through NINE rounds of revisions, with each round decreasing quality by 15% and increasing timeline risk by 30%. But it doesn't have to be this way. In this episode, creative coach Dustin Pead reveals the science-backed systems that top creatives use to guide clients toward their original vision while protecting creative integrity and project timelines.

NEXT EPISODE: Special guest Blake Baer from The Culture Base joins us to discuss "Culture by Design" and how to build teams that support your creative process.
