Frequently Asked Questions
Because is completely fine if you want to know more, I have included below some answers to the most common questions. Should you have additional concerns you are mostly welcomed to contact me.
How much will it cost me?
There’s not one single answer to this question. Each project is different. What I can tell you is that I charge by the project so that you don’t keep paying for every little addition. Prices depend on many variants, but you can be sure you are getting a great value for your design project. Occasionally I will charge by the hour, if the client is unsure of exactly what is involved.
Why should I hire you instead of a larger design firm?
Working with a freelance designer has great advantages. Typically I have very quick turnaround times compared to a larger company. Because I work out of my home, my overhead is lower and that is reflected in my fees, however quality is never sacrificed. And, because it’s just me here, you’re always communicating directly with the person working on your project.
How long does everything take after I get the first draft?
The initial draft is sent within 72 hours. From there it’s a balancing act. It totally depends on how many changes and how quickly you respond (I reply to every email as soon as we receive it). It usually doesn’t take more than a week to finish a design, and never more than 2 weeks to finish any other designs once they are approved.
What kind of files will I receive when the design is done?
You get EPS (vector), JPG, PNG and PDF files. My design can be used to complete stationery and brand marketing – including business card, letterhead, envelopes, brochure design, direct mail design, email marketing, mailing labels, presentation folders, and any other designs your business may require.
Are there any hidden costs or anything else I have to pay for?
No. When I say you have unlimited changes included in the price, I mean it!
What do you mean by social media designs?
Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter include a profile photo and a cover/header image. I design these images to suit your logo and fit exactly within the platforms size specifications.
I live across the country from you, can we still work together?
Absolutely! Most of my clients are all over Europe or even in US, so distance is not a consideration. As long as you have access to the internet and email, we’re good to go!
I need something designed yesterday, can you help me?
Quite possibly. I can usually accommodate your rush job depending on how full my work schedule is however, a rush fee might be added. Contact me to find out.
