My Commitment to my Clients:
Irrespective of the size of the project, my aim on all occasions is to build a strong partnership with my client. With this in mind, we collaborate, combining your hopes and objectives with my expertise and creativity. This results in a finished product that satisfies all your criteria, whilst pleasing the eye.
The Process:
STAGE ONE
The first stage of our journey rests on an informal but important discussion, concerning the nature of the project. During this important considerations such as cost, deadlines deliverables, and so forth, will be agreed upon.
STAGE TWO
Having clarified all these factors I will then go away and research the ideas we’ve formulated, using my technical knowledge and experience to consider trends, styles, aesthetics, etc and competitors where necessary.
At the culmination of this second stage, I will then present the ideas for going forward that I have generated, explaining my decisions.
STAGE THREE
At this point, I am eager to listen to the client’s feedback. Together we will evaluate the decisions I have made and further suggestions or amendments from the client can be integrated into the project.
STAGE FOUR
Once the visuals are signed off, the design will finally take shape and come to life. In this final stage and with the client’s full approval, our project is complete and all final artwork files are supplied to the client.
At all stages of the process, the client’s happiness is paramount. And with this achieved I hope we can look forward to monitoring the success and impact of our project with satisfaction.
