So you’d like to work with me?

Here’s a closer look at what actually happens once you reach out, whether you’re after branding, a website, SEO, or some combination of the three.

1. Connect

Every project starts the same way, with me getting to know you and what you’re hoping to build.

What this looks like:

  • Reach out: Fill out my contact form with a bit about your project.
  • Questionnaire: I’ll send over a quick questionnaire so I can come to our call already knowing the basics.
  • Discovery call: If it’s helpful, we’ll hop on a call to talk through your goals, your ideas, and what you’re picturing for the project.

2. Confirm

Once we’ve talked things through, I’ll put together a proposal so you know exactly what to expect before we start.

What this looks like:

  • Proposal: Dates, pricing, and what’s included, laid out clearly so nothing’s a surprise later.
  • Contract: A quick, straightforward agreement covering the details we discussed.
  • Deposit: Once it’s signed and paid, we’re officially underway.

3. Create and/or Cultivate

This is where things actually take shape, and what it looks like depends on what we’re working on together.

Branding:

  • Mood board: I’ll start with a mood board to lock in the creative direction, taking a look at your industry and competitors along the way.
  • Design work: I get to work on your logo, typography, and color palette, then move on to the rest of your brand assets, like business cards and social templates.
  • Feedback rounds: We go through feedback together at each stage, with the number of rounds always agreed on up front.

Web Design:

  • Wireframe: If it’s part of your project, I’ll start with a wireframe to map out your pages and structure.
  • Design work: I get to work on the design, presenting pages for your feedback as we go.
  • Feedback rounds: We go through feedback together, with the number of rounds always agreed on up front.

SEO:

  • Research: I start with keyword research and a look at your site’s current performance.
  • Optimization: I optimize your pages, set up your Google Business Profile, and make sure you’re built to be found.
  • Extras: Depending on your project, this can also include Google Analytics setup or blog content.

4. Celebrate

Once everything’s ready, you walk away with something you’re actually proud to put your name on.

Branding:

  • File delivery: I export all your files in a way that’s easy for you to use.
  • Guidelines: Simple brand guidelines so you know how to keep things consistent going forward.

Web Design:

  • Launch: Your site goes live, built to be easy to manage and grow with you.
  • Training: I’ll walk you through how to make simple updates yourself.

SEO:

  • Reporting: I’ll show you where things stand and what’s been done.
  • Ongoing growth: SEO keeps building over time rather than being a one-and-done fix, so you’ll know exactly what’s next.
