What to Expect When You Hire a Brand & Website Designer
Thinking about hiring a designer but not sure what to expect? Maybe you’re feeling excited… but also a little nervous. (What if it’s overwhelming? Will it still feel like me? Do I need to have it all figured out first?)
If that’s you… breathe. You’re not alone.
Let me walk you through what it’s really like to work with me on your brand and website — so you know exactly what to expect.
Here’s how we’ll work together:
1️⃣ The Discovery Stage
We’ll start with a deep-dive questionnaire. This is where you tell me all the juicy (and honest!) details: how you got to this point, where you want your business to go, your likes/dislikes, dream clients, brand values, and more.
2️⃣ The Strategy Session
Next, we’ll hop on a strategy call (about an hour) to shape your brand and website direction. I’ll distill everything into a crystal-clear document covering your mission, tone of voice, brand story, client struggles, marketing angles, and more — giving you total clarity before we even touch the visuals.
3️⃣ Copywriting Support
Your voice is unique — no one sounds quite like you. You’ll contribute here, but don’t worry — I’ll guide you with prompts, draft suggestions, and advice so your copy feels natural and on-brand.
4️⃣ Collaborative Design Process
You’ll review and give feedback on mood boards, logo concepts, colour palettes, fonts, and website designs. You have two rounds of amends on each element — and trust me, I’m not precious! This is about getting it right for YOU.
5️⃣ Final Setup & Support
Once everything is built and designed, I’ll guide you through the final steps, with support, guides, and videos so you feel confident using your new site moving forward.
Here’s the vibe you can expect from working with me:
✨ Intuitive
✨ Collaborative
✨ Thoughtful
✨ No stupid questions. No expectation for you to be techy. Just a supportive, grounded process that will leave you with a brand and website you LOVE.
Curious if my process is the right fit for you?
