Whether you are looking to get a new website or your old logo needs a touch-up, we can help you achieve amazing results with a variety of customized packages to suit your needs. Even though we do our best to simplify the description of the process for our clients, more than you expect happens behind the scenes.
Step 1/4 – Initial Research
Every project, regardless of its type or size, begins with initial research which requires gathering the functional requirements essential to understand your needs. This includes a comparison of the competition, your company’s past marketing strategies, potential audience and target market. These foundation-laying steps are imperative as the starting point for the development of a meaningful design that works for your needs and those of your audience. In this phase with the client’s input-we study, analyze and brainstorm to familiarize ourselves with the client’s company, competitors, and customers/users and to determine the core goals the project must meet to be successful. The knowledge gained in this phase informs everything that follows.
Step 2/4 – Design Draft
Based on everything we have gathered about your goals, styles, and the functionality your project needs we create the visuals. We determine specific parameters for achieving the clients’ unique project requirements and then execute a design and production schedule. A first draft of the final product is submitted to the client so that when production begins, there is a concrete goal to work towards.
Step 3/4 – Revisions / Iterative Development
A specific goal is not set in stone. Once agreed to there is an opportunity for modification and review. Initial concepts are developed first, and these are narrowed down until the best approaches are explored to the fullest extent and finally ready to be launched to the audience.
Step 4/4 – Delivery & Maintenance
Our goal is to work collaboratively, thereby sustaining a long-term relationship lasting from the initial research to delivery, support, and maintenance. We accomplish this by providing continued customer support, and by making ourselves available for any future maintenance or additional work you may need. freeplay design can train clients to update and maintain the website on their own or will provide you with excellent ongoing support if desired.
