Process and Pricing
Process:
No-Cost Consultation: To listen and learn about the potential client's business and their marketing needs. (This can be conducted in person or over the phone.)
Estimate: To present a potential client with an estimate for each piece of work and the total cost based on our conversation.
Follow-Up: If the client agrees on the pricing and wishes to proceed, we will discuss the specifics of the project and an estimated timeline for completion. For Marketing clients, we will set up an appointment for our one-to-one session. Then a contract will be sent to secure the transaction.
The Contract: Before beginning a project or session, the client must sign a work contract. The work contract delineates the following:
- project outline
- client's responsibility
- Logicreative Design's responsibility
- fee estimate and payment guidelines
Deposit: Upon signing the work contract, a deposit is required before work on the project can begin.
- Under $500, an initial payment of one-half of the total fee is required upon signing a work contract. The second-half is due upon completion of the project.
- Over $500, an initial payment of one-third of the total fee is required upon signing a work contract. The second one-third is billable upon the halfway point or second phase of the project, with the final third due upon completion of the project.
Project: Designs or written materials presented will be based on the follow-up discussion with the client. During this process we will seek feedback and will provide edited versions for approval.
Session: For Marketing clients, this will be the time for the one-to-one marketing session. Final payment will be collected at this time.
Final Approval: Once we receive your final approval, we will expect a final payment. Design or written work will not be released until full payment is received.
- Print files will be prepared and sent for printing. A date for delivery will be provided.
- Web files will be uploaded to your hosting server and any final adjustments made.
- Writing will be submitted to the client, the press, distributed or uploaded to website.
- Logo in varying sizes will be emailed to the client.
Pricing:
Logo design, print design, web design and marketing sessions will cost a flat rate. For design, the estimate will be based on the complexity of the work.
Writing, editing, website maintenance and content management will be an hourly fee. An estimate of the total time for the project will be provided.
Web maintenance and content management is on a pay-as-you-go basis so that you only pay for completed work; unlike monthly servicingpackages which require you to pay monthly regardless of whether any work is done.
Payment can be made in cash, business check, business debit card, Visa, Mastercard, or Discover Card. Other credit cards or foreign currency are not accepted.
Cancellation Policy:
If a client decides to cancel a session or reject a design or written work after the work has begun, payment of services rendered up to that point will be due.
