Sure...
Your wife's sister's son's friend is a whiz on computers and can bang out a website for you for $500, BUT... You're entrusting sometimes the ONLY face of your business that people will see to someone who isn't experienced with the "rules" of design or web sites - why things are done the way they're done; what colors mean and convey subliminally to your audience; accessibility - how and why some things are designed for low vision, no vision, the elderly, and more... There's a TON of information, education, and consideration that should go into even THINKING about starting a design - of which most novices are unaware - and this applies to all things considered: logos, business cards, web sites, signs, billboards, and on. I'm happy to work on all of it - large or small design projects.
With whom I work
- Small businesses and start-ups
- Larger companies with busy marketing departments
- Design and communication agencies
The initial process for new clients is:
- Discovery call
From your initial contact, we’ll arrange a convenient time to have a no-obligation discovery call. - Short questionnaire
If your project is large (e.g. a logo or new identity, website or brochure), you will receive a short questionnaire. This will help us both with understanding your requirements and thought processes. We will go through the questionnaire on the call and fill in any gaps. - Proposal
After our call, you will receive a proposal for your project, outlining the work involved, costs and an approximate timeframe. - Start date
If you decide to go ahead, we will agree on a start date and get your project booked.
Pricing
This is the big question, isn't it? Everyone wants to know what design costs, but no one is willing to discuss it, especially online... Well, I'm changing that paradigm right now. There are a few items for which there are fixed rates for design, but most projects are unique and require a bespoke proposal based on need. I understand that budget may be a deciding factor for many, so I am outlining some popular design projects below to give an idea of what design services cost when quality, service, attention, and expertise are expected.
