You are ready to get a logo designed. Here's a bit of info about my design process. I'm excited to get started. Let’s jump in!

Let's Chat!

Tell me about your logo/design needs. Based on that conversation, I will make up a quote for the project and timeline for completion. Once we are on the same page and the deposit of 50% is received, I will have you fill out the Pre-Project Questionnaire to help you brainstorm and think more about your project. Then, we will chat more in-depth about the brand you are building and the project at hand.

Research

I will do research and see what's been done in the same industry and ideas related to the ones we've talked about. It's always good to know what's been done already. This is a great time to supply any inspiration pieces/other designs that you like and gravitate toward.

Design Time!

Time to brainstorm and get ideas down! Once that is complete, Proof 1 will be on its way to you. The first designs you see will be in black and white. I like to work on the general design before incorporating color. There may be a wide variety of ideas depending on what we've talked about. Proof 2 (still in black and white) will be tweaking and streamlining the ideas from Proof 1. Once the general design is agreed upon, Proof 3 will be in COLOR! Adding color is like putting frosting on a cake... yummy and colorful! Proof 4 will be the final design ready for your approval. YAY! In the end, you will have a finished product that you are happy with and excited to share with the world.

Final Steps!

Pay Remaining Balance. Upon your approval of the final design, I will send you an invoice for the remaining 50% plus any additional costs as agreed upon during the design process. Additional Costs? What's that about? Check it out here. Once I receive the final payment, I will send you the link that contains the Logo Package.

The Logo Package! You will receive a link to the Logo Package that contains all the files you will need for any application (print, web, etc.). Also included is a file that includes all the information about the fonts and branding color codes used in your brand materials. All files will be delivered via Dropbox or WeTransfer link.

Fill out the Post Project Survey! Let me know what you think about the design process, the final product and working with me.
