Design packages do not include virtual or voice meetings. Meetings are hard to work into processes and workflows, making them near impossible to optimize. While important, to keep cost down, we do not include the ability to schedule meetings. You can imagine what an impromptu 2 hour meeting could do to a day’s calendar - We’re sure you can appreciate that.
We do make it possible to schedule meetings, but at $150 hourly rate. This way, we are both incentivized to keep meetings as efficient and productive as possible so we can both get back to work :)
And where you can find the “fine-print”
No catch, it’s simply a new way of running an agency that provides a mutual benefit.
The subscription model incentivizes both parties to work as fast as possible - which means you get more done, and the agency gets more done.
Billing by hour : most freelancers use this billing structure, and it’s frought with inherit disadvantages. It tends to put the client and freelancer at odds. The client never really knows what it’s going to cost until the work is done, unless a predefined range is set, which can lead to the freelancer either over-working (bad for long-term relationships) or they “simplify” the project to fit within the hours allotted, sacrificing ideation, exploration, and more...
Billing by project : most agencies use this structure, which is great, when you have a defined project. But how do you wrap up multiple project requests into a single project... and how do you effectively budget for that without negotiating quotes?
How this might work better for you than hiring an employee : A senior-level designer easily will cost over $100k annual. They’ll need hardware, software, medical, 401k matching... and, what about the downtime you'll be paying for? You can't pause or scale-back a full-time employee just because you hit your slow season.
A request is any given single design task. Some are simple and are completed in the same day, others can be complex and take multiple days to complete.
For example: if we were redesigning a website using the monthly subscription, the website would be broken down into multiple requests such as:
Request 1: design the new look-and-feel
Request 2: design the home page
Request 3: design a master service page template
Request 4. design a master industry page template
A request can also be multiple engagements with the "same" request – ie. revisions and changes
Request 1: design the new look-and-feel
Request 2: make changes based on feedback
Request 3: make changes based on additional feedback
Request 4: design the home page
Request 5: design a new option for the home page layout
Request 6: make changes to the home page based on feedback
Yes and no.
Each request will enter a queue and, based on an introductory call on your priorities, the requests will be prioritized by importance and tackled one at a time. You can load the queue with as many requests as you'd like.
Your selected plan will determine how many requests will be worked on per month.
It's pretty much how an internal design team member would operate within their bandwidth, but more experienced and affordable :)
You’ll receive a notification email within 24 hours (M-F) of your request submission.
Most design request can be expected to see something within 3 business days of the request.
Follow up questions for clarity may be needed depending on the complexity or detail provided with some requests before they will begin.
You might be surprised to hear this, but Dan is a team of one.
That means you’ll be working directly with me. From time to time, I do partner with others to supplement any gaps, but you’ll always be working directly with me.
That means, I’ll know your style of work, your brand, how you like to communicate, the longer we work together, the easier it gets - much like as if I were a partner in your building – consider me as your virtual creative director or senior designer - you pick the title ;)
Then we keep working together until you are! But, forbid, if you decide this isn’t working out, then you can walk away.
No matter the plan, if you decide Dan isn’t cutting it, then walk away. There are no long term contracts or commitments.
Last thing Dan wants to do is burn a bridge or put you in a position you regret.
Dan operates in good faith, so you won’t be held to any long term commitment if it’s not working out. Last thing we want is to take the money from an unhappy customer.
So there are no cancel penalties or retro payments. You can walk away at any time.
That said, there are no refunds for past months or for past invoices paid or work done.
If you need more we can customize a monthly plan you'll be happy with.
That’s okay... and not uncommon. That’s why the subscription works so well.
Marketing and design tend to have seasonal rushes - which makes hiring on staff so problematic, so when you hit a lull, simply downgrade your plan or pause the engagement entirely.
Give notice before a billing cycle and we’ll adjust your plan. Fall below plan for 3 consecutive months, we’ll voluntarily meet with you and make an adjustment.
