[...] Clearly budget dictates the number of concepts that I present. That’s where the onus is on us as designers to think it through before we design. I think Paul Rand when presenting the UPS logo said he only brought one because it was the right one. It only takes one. [...]

Dave, Luke
Personally, I usually only send one or two refined concepts and if they like the concept I can then refine it. Works for me :)

Nathan,
I also agree, most of the time there is always one stronger concept.
