How long will my project take?

Total duration of full-service projects is typically about 3-ish months (brand creation takes 6-8 weeks, and website creation takes 8-10 weeks for a grand total of 14-18 weeks). We run a pretty tight ship around here when it comes to hitting milestone deadlines (which we will provide to you at the beginning of the project so you know what’s happening when). 

Please note that if you’re serious about providing us with direct and timely feedback (we ask for a 48-hour turnaround) at each step of the process, your project will move quickly.

How much work will this be for ME?

Don’t worry, we’ll be doing the heavy lifting around here. But please be aware that there is some upfront work on your part to fill out your branding workbook as completely as possible.

We will also require you to take part in a few calls throughout the process. We respect your time and will schedule those upfront so that we can all reserve time for them in our busy schedules.

The more details we have from you in a complete workbook and open, honest communication on calls, the better. We are branding experts, but YOU are the expert on your own business, so we can’t do this alone.

How exactly does this work?

First, shoot us a note through our contact form, and we’ll respond back right away with a link to schedule a call with both Deb and Katie so that we can get to know you and exactly what you need.

After we chat, we’ll send you a proposal for your project with any add-ons that you may need. When you’re ready to go, you’ll sign the contract, pay a 25% deposit and receive your brand workbook to start digging into that right away.  We’ll schedule your kickoff strategy session based on our current project schedule (your workbook, along with a Pinterest board, will be due beforehand or we’ll need to reschedule the kickoff call and reset your project timeline).

After our strategy session, we are off to the races working on your visual brand and messaging!  Within 3 weeks of your strategy session, we’ll have another call to present those to you and talk through all feedback.

Once we have your feedback we’ll work on any needed refinements and prep the final files for you.

In the meantime, we’ll begin digging into your website strategy and design. Once we have the information we need from you, we’ll begin the writing and design process simultaneously. While we’re working on that, you’ll have some homework of gathering any needed content (such as product spreadsheets) or images based on our plan for your site.

2 weeks later we will present you with your full website design and copy, which involves another call with you to get your feedback. Then we’ll work on refinements and getting everything prepped and ready to send onto development.  

Website development (which involves adding all of your content and creating all the tech behind your site) typically takes about 4 weeks.  Once it’s complete, we will send you a live website proof to review, and you’ll provide us with any needed feedback so we can get it finalized and launched out into the world.

Then we’ll all pop some champagne and celebrate!

What if I need more than a brand and website?

Well, then you’re in the right place! This package takes everything in the brand positioning and design service, which includes Facebook cover/profile design, business card design, notecard/stationery or marketing card design, 2 Instagram templates and Instagram launch graphics and adds a custom designed, developed and copywritten website.  We build our packages based on the needs of most interior design firms and creative businesses and don’t include any excess fluff that you might not need. Brands aren’t cookie-cutter and are only limited by our imaginations, so any other needs can be added on an a la carte basis. That can be done at the beginning of your project or at any time after it begins.
