Frequently asked questions
How long will it take to build my website?
Project turnaround times depend on the amount of work required on a specific project, as well as client response times. Typically, most website design and builds take 3-4 weeks. I outline the due dates in our proposal so you know when to expect things.
Do you charge per hour or per project?
I charge a per-project fee. This also helps ensure you are never in the dark about pricing or have unexpected costs throughout the project.
Do you offer payment plans?
All my projects require a 50% upfront deposit to secure your spot in my schedule. The remaining 50% will be due when the work has been completed.
I need my project done right away. Can you help me?
It depends. Proper design work requires ample time and research. Giving yourself enough time ultimately will give you a better finished product. If I have time in my schedule, I can sometimes accommodate jobs with tight deadlines.
Can we hop on a quick call to discuss my project?
For sure! But first, I require all potential clients to fill out my contact form so that I can get some basics details about what your business does, budget, and timeline to make sure we’d be a good fit before we discuss your project over the phone.
what if we need ongoing design work?
What I like to suggest for clients that need ongoing work is to do a first “test” project to see if we’d be a good fit. This also gives you an idea of the process, turnaround times, and cost. Please contact me with more details about the type of work you need!
How far in advance do I need to book you?
I work with clients on a first-come, first-serve basis to keep an organized schedule and to ensure ample time for each project. Usual lead time is about 4 weeks to appropriately plan for your project, but the sooner the better!
How much will it cost to design my website?
Pricing can range widely depending on your needs, but most clients spend $1,200+ and up on design projects. I’m always willing to work within your budget it just might change how much work I can do for you.
Will you lower your rates?
No. My pricing is a reflection of the value and skills I bring to the table. I believe my rates are priced fairly in terms of industry standard! That being said, I’m always willing to work within your budget it just might change how much work I can do for you.
Do you do branding work or design logos?
No I do not, sorry! But I can help connect you with some talented copywriters or logo/brand designers in my network.
what’s required of me before we get started?
Ideally, you’ve taken a look through my website and have determined that 1) you resonate with the work in my portfolio and 2) think we’d be a good fit in terms of our working relationship. You would also ideally have all your website content and any assets ready to go before we begin (brand guidelines, product photography, logo files, etc.)!
what is the process like?
Almost all my clients are remote and in different timezones so I have a fairly streamlined process to accommodate that. You can read more about what it’s like to work with me here.
