Expectations vs Reality pairs five common assumptions clients bring about hiring a solo designer, each set row by row against what actually happens. A two column table quotes the expectation on the muted left and answers it on the card right, and one of the five rows admits the assumption is true, so the comparison earns trust instead of deflecting every doubt.
Rows are one array of expectation and reality fields, with the header hidden on small screens where each side stacks under its own label. The distinctive choice is conceding one point outright, which makes the four answered honestly land as candor rather than defense.
Reach for this block on a services or about page when the same worries surface on every first call and you would rather name them than wait for the client to raise them. The installer rewrites the five rows from the objections they actually hear, keeping one honest concession so the set stays credible.

Tip: keep the true row honest. A comparison where every expectation is wrong reads as a pitch, and the one concession is what sells the rest.
