How much of your project research is based upon client competition and their identity designs?
A great deal. Evaluating the competition is a necessary part of the process, and should be expected from any graphic designer. Even though I research client competitors for every project, some clients choose not to have this stage documented and supplied, thus saving money.

What if we are located out of the US? Can we still work together?
While there is nothing obviously more effective than face-to-face communication, this usually doesn’t have an effect on whether or not I can still provide my services to you. I have done work for companies from across the country that I never actually got to meet in person. I consider myself a proficient veteran of “working virtually” and have a master’s grasp of the technoloigcal side of what it takes to work virtuallly in a user-friendly way. Do not let the idea of working virtual stop you from inquiring. You would be surprised at how much time can sometimes be saved by actually working this way. I can easily guide you through the process.

Can we talk on the telephone?
Absolutely. All clients receive my mobile phone number, and I’m available between 9am and 5pm Eastern US time, from Monday to Friday (except during weekends and holidays). Visit my contact page to initiate contact.

How do you accept payment?
With most design projects, I request a 50% downpayment prior to scheduling the work. This is payable by a number of methods: via bank transfer, PayPal, money order or check. All details are included in an initial invoice, and the remaining 50% is payable upon completion of the project with 100% client satisfaction.
