Creative Process
For each project we follow a simple process to help you craft and develop your unique designs. We then iterate, improve, and repeat until you are 100% satisfied.
Our Simple Process
We work in a queue system so we can dedicate the time, consistency, and energy necessary to build, design, and launch your project in the best way possible. By taking on only a select number of projects at once, we can keep the creative process moving in a forward direction, which reduces time and redundancy and ensures focused, personal service.
Once the project is complete, you own all rights to your designs, and we will provide you with a style guide and the necessary files for use in printed media and various online platforms.
01
Design Brief
We will need to get to know you and your company first so we have a clear understanding of your business goals and brand personality.
02
Market + User Research
Here we will learn more about your market and any potential competitors, as well as explore how to influence success and help you stand out from the crowd.
03
Creation + Refinement
When all the core information is gathered, we will begin to create design concepts around what we’ve learned. We will then present these concepts to you and continue to review and refine until everyone is ecstatic with the results.
04
Delivery + Launch
It’s time to go live with your new designs! We will provide the final artwork and identity guidelines.

Domain Registration and Setup
(pricing varies)
A domain name is your website name, and it is the address where Internet users can access your website. You must register a domain name before you can use it. No two websites can have the same domain name; if someone types in yourdomain.com, it will go to your website and no one else’s.
Recommendation: Google Domains
Web Hosting Setup
(pricing varies)
The web hosting or server is the space that you “rent out” to have your business in. The domain name that a visitor inputs in their browser will point them to this space on the web. Web hosting does not include the actual site itself, it’s just the space you reserve where you will build the site and add all the necessary files for your site.
Recommendation: WP Engine Optimized Hosting or FlyWheel for WordPress, Liquid Web for WordPress and Non-WordPress
Email Setup
(pricing varies)
Professional emails at your domain name can help you boost your credibility and build your brand. Many email accounts are included with web hosting packages, and we can help if needed.
Recommendation: Google Gmail
Content Marketing + Copywriting
(pricing varies)
Even though we are capable of doing some minor content writing for you, we are by no means professional content marketers or copywriters. We do, however, have a few experts that we would be happy to recommend for you.
Website Care Plans
In order to continue at optimal site performance and security, we highly recommend an ongoing website care plan which will provide support, security, and content updates.
Web maintenance includes security monitoring, plugin and core updates, and site restores in the event that an authorized user damages the design or impairs the ability for the web pages to display or function properly, or in the event that your website ever becomes attacked or damaged.
