A Guide to the Design Process

Design is the melding of talent, training, intuition and experience. I listen to your needs and work with you to create a product you’ll love — and we’ll have fun doing it.

The Design Process

  1. Discovery Meeting reveals your needs and content.
  2. Project Proposal outlines and estimates your cost.
  3. 50% Deposit is due with proposal acceptance.
  4. Design delivered with up to two revisions.
  5. Content finalized before development starts.
  6. Coding completed on my server.
  7. Balance Due upon project completion.
  8. Site Launch to client domain and file handoff.
  9. CMS Training as needed.
  10. Friendly Support will always be waiting!

Please Dos & Kindly Donts

  • Please do Supply your content as soon as possible. It helps during the design process.
  • Please do State your needs and deadlines up front. It helps me better estimate cost and timelines.
  • Please do Communicate regularly. I am prompt to return emails and phone calls.
  • Kindly don’t Try to solve design problems; instead, voice your concerns. You’re paying me to solve the problems.
  • Kindly don’t Get upset if I can’t turn work around in less than 24 hours. I keep a tight schedule and have a busy dance card!
