Bad Design can kill a good concept.

Problem: Have you ever came up with a great concept, maybe even sketched it out, only to have the version that comes back from Design to be WORSE than the original concept? It can and does happen.

Solution: "Three strikes, you're out!" Give the design team feedback, point out specific disconnects from the original plan. Most great work really does require several iterations - designers aren't mind-readers, nor do they typically think in terms of gaining conversions or achieving shrewd usability. If they don't have that type of experience, they just may need alot of feedback. (more on this)

But a word of advice: if the Design team isn't able to deliver an amazing page or site within 3 tries, they probably won't ever be up to snuff. Put them on your B (or C) list, and set your sights on finding someone who is a better fit to help drive your site conversions and usability.
