Suggestion of Badges to be Earned by "Clients"

I have a suggestion that "The 'Clients' must pass a small learning path to have a "Badge" posted on their project as well?            Just as we as freelancers must earn ours in the " My Community Badges" of the Learning Paths?

How about on the 'Find Work' on the far left of our profile page in addition to 'Featured Job' for the Clients:

The subject matters could be:

Project Completion Badge: We as freelancers would value a badge with just a glance such as this; A high project completion rate would earn the client a badge. This would mean to the freelancer that the client is sure to see projects through to the end of the project and value the freelancer's time.

Clear Communication: Badge: If the client was able to pass this badge; Create project descriptions with as much detailed to avoid project misunderstandings. This would save every person time and labor by defining the project outline in a clear, bulleted, and organized way.

Fair Rates & Budget Simplicity Badge:  Present fair rates. Be upfront and honest about [the client's budget] this will attract freelancers who will feel appreciated.

Mind you, these are hopeful imaginary badges I would love to see clients earn.

Maybe we would not have to spend so much on connects?

Hey, it is just a hopeful thought. - MaryG.

Dear Ms. JoanneP,

 

I am humbled and honored upon your feedback of considering my conceptions of badges for clients. 

Especially hoping the rest of the team will feel these badge ideas might make the 'Finding work' section easier for all to navigate. Thank you, Ms. MaryG.

How is the vote going for: Suggestion of Badges to be Earned by "Clients"???

 

Curious.
