FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Please note that I do NOT design logos under $200. Logo design starts at $750. I have 5+ years of experience in this field, and if you are looking for quality work, then I'm the designer for you. If you are considering a logo for under $200, know that your designer is most likely inexperienced and will provide you with clipart. They will rush to get the job done, making the most amount of money for little time. This is not how I design logos. I take my time and put in a lot of effort to my process, because I care about my work and my client. When designing your brand, you should want an original, high quality logo so that you stand out from your competition.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After the initial inquiry, I set up a phone call with my client to get a better idea of their business. After the call, I then follow up with a customized quote for the client. Once approved, the client signs a contract and makes a 50% deposit. The remaining 50% is paid once the project is complete. Once the initial payment is received, I then send the client a timeline of when the work should be completed and when client feedback should be given. I also send over a branding questionnaire which asks the client questions regarding their business. Once the questionnaire is completed, I then start the project. For logo design, I only show 1 to 2 proofs. I am the expert, and I know which logo is best for the client. Providing too many options not only causes the client to become overwhelmed, but it also makes it even harder for the client to choose the "best" one. You end up combining their favorite options, and as a result the logo does not look appealing. When sending over the logo proof to my client, I show the logo on print collateral, such as business cards, stationary, etc. as well as how it would look on a website. 99% of the time, my clients do not have changes and the logo is approved and final files are sent. However, if there are any changes, I will gladly make them. Once the logo is approved, final files are sent and the remaining 50% deposit is due.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I attended Columbia College in Chicago and IU or Indiana University where I received my Bachelor's of Fine Arts with a concentration in Graphic Design.
