questions.
The things people ask before working with me. If yours isn't here, ask me directly.
Logo designs start at $500 for my basic package. I feel strongly about working with local businesses and startups, and I want my pricing to reflect that. At this price point, I can provide quality work that will create a strong brand foundation, while not breaking the bank. More information about my design packages is located on my website, and we can chat before getting all official if you feel like your project doesn't quite fit the mold.
A logo is a crucial part of any brand, but it is just the beginning. To paint a more complete picture, it is important that all elements of a brand point back to the main identity. Full brand identity deliverables will vary depending on the needs of the project, but will include items such as signage, type sheets, menus, shirts, packaging graphics, mockups, email templates, and social media templates.
Quick turnaround is important to me, but I also have to be confident in the design. With clear communication and strong concepts, a basic logo and preliminary branding project is often completed within two weeks. Full brand identities take longer and vary depending on the scope. It is also invaluable that you (the client) believe in the work. If you need more time to talk things over with your team, no problem. If the project requires another iteration or more editing of an element, that is totally fine. It is part of the process, but it does add more time.
As of now, I work alongside agencies or individuals in the web design field who really know their stuff. I know how a website should look and function, and I can offer guidance from a design perspective, but I am still learning when it comes to coding and back-end mechanics.
Once your logo is finished and you are pleased with what we've created together, I will make sure invoices are paid and package your files. Packaging refers to the process of me separating all final files and organizing all of your deliverables into a folder for ease of access. I will then share this folder with you, along with access to all files.
Yes, of course! I have completed several projects for churches that are looking for rebranding, interior or exterior signage, presentation slides, and sermon series themes. If you or your church could use some help in any of these areas, I'd love to work with you.
Absolutely! Everyone needs quality branding and a cohesive brand image. As much as I love being able to meet clients in person and lay eyes on the space my work will be living in, I am always willing to hop on a call and help you figure out what you need.
I just need you to have a vision. Of course, the more information you have, the better, but I also love helping people figure out how they want (or should) present themselves. Brand image is highly unique, so it's important to figure out what you want it to be before designing. If you're not quite sure yet, no worries. I can help you figure it out.
This depends on which logo package you decide to purchase. I have three packages at the moment, basic, mid-tier, and top-tier. I include two, three, and five concepts, respectively.
Again, this depends on which logo package you purchase. My basic logo package includes one revision (or iteration as it's called in the design world) after the first draft, perfect if you have a very good idea of what you would like the final product to be. The mid-tier logo package includes three iterations, and the top-tier logo package includes five iterations. If your project is not a logo project, no worries. I can add iterations to any project if you feel like it is necessary.
As the creator of your files, I will own the copyright to everything you receive. The client will have a license to use the files according to the terms laid out in my contract. In almost every case, the client will have broad and exclusive usage rights to the work. In plain English, you (the client) can do whatever you want with the graphics without any problems 99% of the time.
Yes, of course! Wearable merchandise is a great way to make money and promote your brand at the same time. I offer screen printing alongside my design services so that I can streamline workflow and maintain control over how your brand is presented.
Already got a logo and don't know what to do next? No problem! Branding extends so far beyond a logo and typeface. I would love to help you figure out the next steps, whatever this looks like. It could be designing a menu, creating a social media theme, shooting brand content, helping you hone in on your niche, the list goes on. I am passionate about building a cohesive brand image, and that often means taking the feeling that a logo generates, and applying it to other areas of the brand.
I always require a down payment before I begin working on a project, but I am flexible. I will simply hold on to the final files until I have received complete payment for a project. If you cannot pay the remaining cost all at once, I can most likely work with that. I have more in-depth guidelines laid out in my contract, which I require all clients to sign before I begin working.
Shoot me an email at isaiahwatersdesign@gmail.com! Give me a very brief explanation of what you're interested in partnering on, and I will get back to you as soon as I can. We can set up a meeting to talk about your project more, and if you're in the Pensacola area, I know a few really good coffee shops we could meet up at. I look forward to seeing what we make together!
