Graphic Design FAQ's
Here are some questions we get about Graphic Design FAQ's
How should I best provide feedback on the designs?
We believe collaboration is key to a successful project. Our process typically starts with a discovery phase where we learn about your brand, goals, and target audience. From there, we move to concept development, presenting you with initial designs for your feedback. We then refine the chosen concept until it's perfect. You will be an active partner throughout this process, as your insights are invaluable.What is the expected turnaround time for revisions?
Your satisfaction is our priority. Our proposals include a specific number of revision rounds (typically 2-3) to ensure you are completely happy with the final design. We will work closely with you to incorporate your feedback during these rounds. Any additional revisions beyond the agreed-upon amount may be subject to an extra fee, which we will discuss with you beforehand.What if I want to make significant changes after the initial concepts?
We understand that ideas can evolve. Our process is designed to prevent this by getting clear direction upfront. However, if a significant change in direction or scope is requested after the initial concepts are presented, it may be considered a scope change and could affect the project timeline and cost. We will always communicate any potential adjustments to you before moving forward.Who owns the copyright to the final designs?
Upon final payment, the full copyright and intellectual property rights for the final, approved designs are transferred to you, the client. We retain the right to use the work for our own portfolio and marketing purposes unless otherwise specified.How do you ensure the final files are print-ready or web-optimized?
We handle all the technical details to ensure your files are perfect for their intended use. For print-ready files, we use the industry-standard CMYK color mode, set the resolution to a minimum of 300 DPI for sharp, high-quality printing, and include the proper bleed and crop marks required by commercial printers. For web-optimized files, we use the RGB color mode, save them at a lower resolution (typically 72 DPI) for fast loading times, and provide them in formats like PNG or JPG that are ideal for digital platforms. We perform these crucial checks on every project to guarantee your final files look exactly as they should, whether they are printed or viewed online.What happens if the project goes over the estimated timeline or budget?
We always aim to meet the timelines and budgets outlined in our initial proposal. We achieve this by establishing a clear scope of work and a detailed project plan from the start. However, we understand that unforeseen circumstances can sometimes arise. If we anticipate a potential delay due to our own internal processes, we will notify you immediately and provide an updated timeline. If the project's timeline or budget is affected by a change in the original scope—such as new requests, additional deliverables, or a significant change in direction—we will pause the project and provide you with a revised quote and timeline. We will not proceed with any extra work until we have your full approval, ensuring there are no surprises. Our goal is to maintain complete transparency and keep you informed every step of the way.How often will we communicate about the project's progress?
Clear and consistent communication is a top priority for us. We'll establish a communication schedule that works for both of us, but typically, you can expect the following: Kick-Off: We'll have a detailed initial consultation to discuss your vision, goals, and project requirements. Milestone Updates: We'll provide updates at each key project milestone, such as after the initial concepts are developed and again after revisions are made. Regular Check-ins: For more complex or longer-term projects, we can schedule regular check-ins (e.g., weekly or bi-weekly) to provide status updates and get your feedback. Our preferred method of communication is email, as it allows us to keep a clear record of all project-related discussions and feedback. However, we're always flexible and can adjust the communication frequency to best suit your needs and comfort level. Our goal is to keep you informed and involved throughout the entire process.What if I'm not completely satisfied with the final design?
We are committed to your satisfaction. Our process, which includes a detailed discovery phase and multiple revision rounds, is designed to ensure the final product meets your expectations. In the rare case of dissatisfaction, we will discuss your concerns and work to find a solution that makes you happy.Can I get the source files for the designs?
Yes, the source files for all final, approved designs are included in your final delivery package. This gives you full control and flexibility to make future edits or work with other vendors.What is your process for project completion and final sign-off?
Once all revisions are complete and you have given final approval, we will send you the final invoice. Upon receipt of the final payment, we will deliver all the final design files to you via a secure file-sharing link. This marks the official completion of the project.
