The Design Center Program
We pride ourselves on providing competitive rates, undivided attention, and exceptional deliverables. The Design Center Program includes:
You’ll work with 1-2 dedicated project managers who quickly become equally as knowledgeable about your brand as your in-house team! Your projects are as important and valuable to us as they are to you.
Upon sign-up, we work together to perform a deep dive into your brand, your audience, and your goals. We’re also happy to have introductory calls with others from your team or even other partner agencies who you think we should meet.
We set up a custom intake form for your project requests and train you on utilizing our transparent project management system. Our process is refreshingly easy and makes everything run like a well-oiled machine.
There is an open and direct line of communication from start to finish. Login any time to see the status of your projects or review proofs.
We’re always sensitive to your budget. We make sure to provide accurate project estimates, recommend ways to maximize your time, and keep you informed every step of the way.
The Design Center puts a steady stream of high-quality creative right at your fingertips. Our seasoned graphic artists deliver consistently amazing results for each and every project.
Never worry about what to write or say again! Our keen word weavers specialize in all-star content that masters your brand’s voice and tone.
Our month-to-month contract includes the valuable benefit of rollover hours, ensuring that unused time is never wasted and can be utilized effectively.
The Design Center is well known for prompt response and fast turnaround. On average, you can expect a 3-5 business day turnaround for small projects, 5-7 for larger tasks, and 10+ (proportional to project scope) for more complex endeavors. Any rush request will be evaluated on a case by case basis and accommodated whenever possible.
You have full ownership of the assets, designs, or source files we produce for you. You’ll also receive access to any brand guidelines we create on your behalf.
Need to get a large project off your plate or off the ground? We don’t need hand-holding. We schedule a strategy call and hit the ground running with creative ideas and smart solutions. With over 20 years of experience working with both B2C and B2B clients, we’re a wealth of knowledge and eager to share.
