Its all in the process
A good process and transparency from the start play a huge part in building successful partnerships. Below I have broken down my client/design process so its clear what goes on and when.
Client process
01
Kick off
First things first let’s meet! Before signing any dotted lines or paying any deposits we can jump on a quick 30 minute call to kick off the scope of the project, outlining the concept, timeframes, deliverables, and budgets, etc. These are usually verbally agreed upon on the call.
02
The dotted line
I’ll shoot through a project proposal which details the deliverables and the quote for you to sign off. Once approved, the contract, briefing template/questionnaire and 50% deposit invoices are shared. We can only progress once these have been signed, paid and filled out.
03
Get designing
Once the signed contract, deposit and completed questionnaire have been received with accompanying moodboard, I can begin the design process. I will then go through each stage of the design process below to get to a primary direction I believe best answers the brief.
04
The first reveal
It’s now probably been two to three weeks since I received all I needed from you and I’m ready to present the designs. I will walk you through each step of my design process explaining the rational behind each decision to ultimately get to one design at the end. I will also send you the deck so you can refer back to it when pulling together feedback.
05
Final or feedback
Although tricky, it’s important to let all the information I’ve presented to you sink in for a day or two at least before providing any consolidated feedback. Depending on the level of amends required (if there are any), I may send them over on email or I’ll present to you if it requires more work and explanation.
06
Finale
After you’ve signed off the design, I’ll share the final invoice and once that has been paid, I’ll send over all the files and exports in an organised folder system for you to use immediately. We will keep in touch to make sure you have everything you need.
