How It Works

To begin our work together to enhance your image, you will need to complete a Design Order Form. This where I begin to learn about you and your gifts and talents, or your organization and what you are trying to achieve. I will need to understand your needs, desires and intended purpose for your design project (i.e., color preferences, special functionalities, whether it is intended for web and/or print, etc.) in order to best enhance your image.
I will then approximate the time and effort it will take to develop your design project and provide you with Price Estimate.

I will review the information provided by your Design Order Form, and use the preferred Pricing Plan indicated on the Design Order Form as a starting point.
Please provide as much detail as possible, using the “Additional Notes” area of the form to supply details not covered by the Design Order Form.
Your specific needs (for example, e-commerce or online payment functionality) may require some additional time and effort, and may therefore incur additional charges. You will be made aware of such charges as they arise, and may be billed for them as they occur.
I will forward a Price Estimate (via email) based on the information provided. Additional charges beyond your preferred Pricing Plan will be clearly identified in the Price Estimate, whenever possible.

I will schedule a meeting with you (face-to-face or via teleconference) to review your Design Services Contract together to ensure that we agree on the scope, desires, and details of your design project.
When I believe I have a clear understanding of your design project, I will forward a Design Services Contract via email.
You will sign the Design Services Contract and send it back to me with a check for your initial deposit (generally 50% of the contracted price).
Work on your design cannot begin until I have received a signed Design Services Contract AND your initial deposit.

Upon receipt of the Design Services Contract and an initial deposit, I will begin work on your design project.
Drafts of your design project will be made available to you for your review and feedback.
I will make requested adjustments and make a new draft available to you.
Depending on the time required to complete your project, you may receive additional invoices for part of your outstanding balance, which will be discussed as work on your project progresses.
We can go through this cycle up to 5 times. I am confident that by then, you will be satisfied with the results of your design project.

Once you are satisfied with your design project, and you will receive an final invoice for any outstanding balance.
Upon receipt of the final payment, I will deliver your finished project (installing your web design on your web host, and/or providing any images or graphic designs via email or disk for your unlimited use.
I will remain available to provide minor modifications or adjustment for a period of time specified in your Design Services Contract. Thereafter, I am willing to provide consultation on the future development of your project, as needed.
