If this is a recurring pattern, shouldn't you implement measures to help your clients avoid this?

I know some clients can be difficult and persist that their way is right, but if you approach it as a professional most people will listen to your advice. It IS what they pay you for after all.

So it is a good idea to not spend heaps on your first site as it probably will change in a year or so when you get into your business.
I disagree. Even more reason to have a modular website built that is going to grow with your business.

Better yet, if you pay for quality advice and service from the outset you'll probably find that you'll avoid many pitfalls.
