“She managed to cherry pick from all my disjointed ideas and create the most perfect representation of exactly what I wanted, but wasn’t able to articulate myself.”
“Andrea was such a joy to work with throughout the process of designing and launching my website. She managed to cherry pick from all my disjointed ideas and create the most perfect representation of exactly what I wanted, but wasn’t able to articulate myself. It goes without saying that she was extremely responsive and helpful with any questions about the process that I had along the way. I’d highly suggest working with her if you’re in the market for new branding or website help or even just a refresh!”
brand confidence
You will leave the Design Day Intensive with tailor-made designs and the confidence needed to reach your dream clients. You can breathe easy knowing that your brand, website, and marketing needs are taken care of and you’re able to focus on running your business.
The Process
01. SCHEDULE
It’s recommended that you book 2-3 weeks in advance in order to have enough time to complete and gather your pre-design day homework, schedule your strategy call and pay your deposit. All content must be ready exactly one week before your intensive.
02. STRATEGIZE
During our strategy call we’ll talk about the details of your project and goals you’re wanting to achieve. If you’ve selected the marketing collateral package, we’ll create a priority list of items and work through as many as we can during your design day. If you’ve selected Branding or Web Design, we’ll discuss strategy, design direction and site planning.
03. DESIGN
Your business is the only thing I’ll focus on during this day. It’s important to note that you’ll also need to be available for feedback throughout the day and ask that you kindly keep this in mind when selecting your intensive date.
04. DELIVER
At the end of the day you’ll receive your final files and instructions on how to implement them. Revisions to designs are to be made the following day and you’ll have access to post-project support for two weeks.
Frequently Asked
How quickly can we get started?
It is recommended to secure a spot giving yourself at least 2-3 weeks before your scheduled intensive to gather the necessary content for your project (for example: brand photography, website copy, inspiration etc.). Your content is due exactly one week before your intensive date.
Will you be able to finish everything I need?
That is always the goal! Prior to the intensive we’ll have a strategy call to discuss everything it is you’re wanting to achieve. We’ll be able to determine what your priority items are and how we can maximize the time to accomplish those needs.
Do you offer payment plans?
Of course! For branding and web design intensives, a 25% deposit is required to secure your spot in the queue. Remaining payments can be made in 1-3 installments after that, however, final payments must be made in order to receive your files. For those individuals who select a Design Day Intensive where we tackle marketing collateral, a deposit of $500 is due to secure your spot and your final payment must be made at project completion.
What platforms are your websites built in?
We work exclusively in Squarespace for Design Day Intensives and only with service based businesses. We work with eCommerce brands on the Shopify platform but don’t offer this as part of this program. For a custom brand and Shopify website proposal, please inquire here.
Why Squarespace?
In our experience, Squarespace offers beautiful and user-friendly websites, and the ease of use on the backend is definitely a perk. We prefer Squarespace for sites with little to no product. There might be an initial learning curve when first starting with the platform, but we feel it’s one of the easier client management systems to learn once our work together is done. Squarespace offers hosting, domains, and templates all as a part of their program and is created with a DIY user in mind. Their system is responsive and mobile-friendly, has built-in SEO, and content looks great on every device. As a self-contained platform, you’ll never need to update software, plugins, or widgets.
If it’s so easy, why do I need a designer?
There is quite a bit of technical knowledge required if you want a completely custom website. Our studio is experienced in css/html code and we create one-of-a-kind sites for our clients that don’t feel like a templated design. We’ll also handle the entire setup and launch of your site so you can focus on your business.
