If a client ever approached me without having some sort of direction or plan or strategy in mind, I would never work for them. I want clients who know what they want, who I can partner with and provide appropriate guidance and input, and who will fight me if and when I make a decision that doesn't align with their goals (though, obviously I do my research and work to avoid such a situation).

This concept extends beyond design -- you want anyone you work with to be someone you trust to do their job.
