The Design Process

Unsure where you want to start? Let me walk you through the design experience details.

THE DESIGN EXPERIENCE

Step 1 - Discovery Call

After getting in touch, we will set up a phone call or in person meeting to discuss your project and talk through everything that you are looking to accomplish in a logo and branding, website design or specialty design project.

Step 2 - Written Proposal

After our initial conversation, I will send you a proposal that outlines the scope of the project and costs. If all looks good, I will send an agreement for us both to sign. I require a non-refundable 50% deposit to get started on a project and all my terms will be clearly written in the agreement.

Step 3 - Strategy

After we get the paperwork out of the way, I will send a detailed questionnaire for you to fill out and then we will meet to go over the form as well as anything else prior to the start of the project. Before any design begins, I'll send you a brand foundation presentation that outlines the overall style of your brand. This step ensures we’re on the same page before any design begins.

Step 4 - Design

After the brand foundation is approved, I handcraft one concept* that embodies the highest quality design for your business. Here you have an opportunity to provide direct feedback about what looks amazing and what needs adjustment.

*Why one concept? You’re hiring me for my years of design and creative expertise, I take your trust in me very seriously. You can rest assured that behind the scenes I've tried every possible design solution and instead of presenting three watered down choices, I put all my creative energy into the very best design solution for your business.

Step 4 - Website and Launch

I’ll craft a custom Squarespace website for your brand so that your clients have a tailored experience and your brand stays cohesive.

After we finalize every last detail, I will provide you with everything you need to launch your new brand and website. I’ll help design an email to send to your audience announcing your new website as well as well as custom graphics to share on social media.

Step 5 - Brand Maintenance

I will equip you with the tools necessary to maintain your brand and website. This may include a full brand style guide if is included in the scope of your project. I will train you to update Squarespace yourself and give you resources and tools to help you take the reins. I will provide you with files to use in Canva for social media or other marketing materials. If you are interested in having me make changes to your website going forward, I am happy to do so and would charge an hourly rate for any additional work after we finish.

Please get in touch, I’d love to discuss working with you!
