All great projects can be tied back to just one tiny spark of imagination. If enough
care is taken, that spark can grow into a roaring fire that survives for eons.
Fire can also be a very scary thing if not dealt with carefully.
You may have that spark of imagination in your hands but you may also fear
being burnt. Let's ease those fears by walking through our process.
We need to know what kind of fire you want to build before we can help.
The first (and easiest option) for contacting us is our "Free Quote" form.
Please note that even if you don't go this route up front, we will likely
have you answer the form anyway so we can learn about your goals.
Alternatively, you can reach out via our "Contact Us" page, our email,
or our Discord (if you have the latter two). We really prefer the ease
of the first option and only advise other routes as a last resort.
We've developed the "Free Quote" (Google) form as a way to make
the process of learning about you/your project comfortable. You can
fill it out at your own pace without meeting or scheduling pressures.
The form will ask questions that are vital to us understanding the
goals, the budget, the timeframe, and other relevant details about
the project. If we think we're the right fit, we take that info and prepare
ideas for how we can tackle the project within the given parameters.
From there we'll reach out to you using the preferred method you
provided in the form. If we think we're not the right fit, we'll discuss
and we can help you locate someone who is or rethink the goals. If
we think we are the right fit, we'll present the ideas we prepared.
From there it's up you to decide if you want to move forward with
us working on your project. If you do want to move forward, we'll
draft a contract. Once that contract is agreed upon, signed, and
we've collected a percentage of the estimated final fee from you
(a safety measure we must take), it's time to get to work.
A lot of the next steps depend on the type of project you bring.
For example, if you're seeking a logo we'll first begin by sketching
out different logo concepts and presenting them. If you're having
a video edited, we'll take the footage from you and just get right
to work assembling that together while providing previews.
This bit is the real meat and potatoes and will likely be the step
that takes the longest. We simply work hand in hand with you
to take the spark and kindling we already have and build it
into that bright roaring fire we're working towards.
We couldn't possibly list out the exact process for every single
type of project that exists out there but do not worry, this would be
something discussed and worked out during the initial meet.
Sometimes things change in the middle of the process and
that's okay. We'll leave a little wiggle room but we need to make
sure the fire doesn't race out of control (i.e. scope creep).
Now we get to final approvals and final delivery. The most fun part.
Once everything has been approved by you/your team, you'll be charged
for the rest of the final agreed upon amount. Once that is paid, you'll
receive the final materials in whatever form was decided early on.
We handle all billing through PayPal using email invoices. You
can learn more about this at the top of our quote form.
The fire we built together now roars bright so take it into the world.
If your project was a one-time thing, then it's time for goodbye. If you've
hired us for a long-term project, we stand ready to take on the next adventure.
