FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I begin a new project with a 50% deposit (or less, depending on the nature and scope of the project) payable via Venmo, Paypal, Zelle, or SquareUp — whichever is most convenient for the client. I work at my hourly rates until the deposit is spent, then turn on weekly billing until completion and/or delivery, or, for shorter jobs, issue a final bill for the remaining 50% balance. I find this method keeps everyone on their toes and mindful of the timeline, and keeps communication and expectations clear. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// My Rates and Hourly Task Structure: ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// General Admin | $45/hr.

- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically we begin with a brief Q and A consultation regarding overall creative direction, your budget and timeline, desired platform(s), whether or not you have gathered assets or need them created, and your final goals over email, phone, or Zoom. I usually provide several options depending on your needs, and give expert guidance based on your responses and desired outcome. Once we agree on the creative direction, budget, and timeline, the work begins immediately upon receipt of a deposit.
