CaliC@t Design Process

Step1 Discovery
In this initial stage of starting a new project, all relevant information needs to be supplied by you before I can begin the physical design process. I rely on my Request for Quote Questionnaire (RfQ²) to initiate this dialogue with you as a new client. The RfQ² will ask you for information regarding the following topics:

:: Nature of Service
:: Range of Content
:: About your Business
:: User Experience
:: Deadline and Budget

Step2 Defining the Project and Project Needs
After you have supplied all relevant information, I will work with you to define the key elements of your project:

:: Content
Exactly what content is needed to complete your project (ie, copy, photos, images, other). Is your content fully developed to its potential?

:: Technical Considerations
I will define any technical considerations that your project may require (ie, printing services, web hosting or other).

:: The Deliverable
I will meet with you to discuss the product to be delivered. A formal agreement will be made by both you and CaliC@t Design based upon the RfQ², a FREE 1-hour consultation meeting and all content gathered for the project.

:: Budget Considerations and Documentation
Based upon the agreed project to be developed, a budget and contract will be drawn up by CaliC@t Design. Any deadline requirements will also be defined within this contract.

Step3 Research, Design & Development
I will begin the design process by thoroughly studying your provided materials and performing additional research as needed. I will supply you electronic mock-ups for your approval prior to final design, thus keeping you involved in the design process.

Step4 Final Production and Deployment
After all preliminary design work is completed, and all stages have met your approval and needs, the final product is delivered, or prepared to go live or go to print.

:: Publishing
I can provide artwork for any type of printing process your project needs, including high-quality, 4 color printing. I can also provide a hosting company and purchase your domain name for your new website.

:: Support
I believe that a long-term relationship between myself and my clients is key to the mission of CaliC@t Design and my mission as a design professional. Therefore, I will do everything within my power to ensure that your final product will perform to its fullest.
