Branding is one of the most important aspects of any business.

Investing in your branding from the beginning will end up saving you time, money and headaches down the road. Branding your business is more than just a logo design but your logo is the first link people make with your business. It’s what you build your business look and feel on.

LOGO DESIGN PROCESS

01. CONTACT ME
If you have a project and believe we’d be a good fit, simply shoot me an email to get the conversation started. In the beginning, we will talk over your project’s details + discuss a timeline and pricing so that everyone is on the same page. At this point, I will develop a contract so that the process can begin.
02. INSPIRATION & RESEARCH
Before the design process begins, I’ll need to know all about your project’s goals, visions and preferences. To achieve this, we’ll talk details and swap inspiration. If you want to get a head start you can fill out a project planner. During my research I take into account competitors, market trends, product/service differentiators, the history of the business, the current brand and the one aspired toward.
03. DESIGN TIME
Depending on your project, a few initial designs will be presented at our first deadline. Once you’ve seen these, it will be your turn to give appropriate/organized feedback in order to move forward. We will work together and I will ask you specific questions to help decide how to best make edits and revise.
04. FINAL TOUCHES
Once we’ve gone through a couple rounds of revisions and everyone is happy with the results, it will be time to put on the final touches and package your project up so that it’s ready for the world to see! Upon final payment, you will either be given the necessary files or I will send your files to print.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS YOUR AVAILABILITY?
Usually, the studio is booked one to three months in advance with current work. Because of the high volume of requests received, it is impossible to accept every job.
I AM IN A DIFFERENT LOCATION FROM CIERA DESIGN. IS THIS AN ISSUE?
Almost all communication is done through email and is presented in PDF decks along with phone calls and video chats if needed so there’s no need for you to be in the same geographic location.
HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL WE CAN BEGIN?
If I feel that we’re a good fit, a start date will be provided. The start date is based on current work load and is valid for that week. I do my best to begin your job as soon as possible. For this reason, the start date is an estimate.
DOES CIERA PERSONALLY WORK ON EACH PROJECT
You’ll be working with Ciera on every project, but sometimes, she may have to call on some specialists to make a project perfect!
WHAT IS YOUR PAYMENT STRUCTURE?
I can only secure projects into my schedule on receipt of a 50% deposit. If there is any kind of delay at this point, other projects may take priority. This is not to pressure you in any way, it’s just so you know where you stand in terms of scheduling. The Project pricing includes Designer’s fee only. Any and all outside costs including, but not limited to, photographer’s costs and fees, photography and/or artwork licenses need to be paid prior to production/purchase.
CAN YOU HELP WITH TRADEMARKS AND COPYRIGHTS?
Due to the lengthy and often costly procedures required to initiate any form of Trademark, Copyright and legal name search, I am unable to help with this. If you require the logo to be trademarked, then you must seek proper legal advice. You take full responsibility for ensuring that the company/product/name is legally free before work is started. Name changes during a project can be exceptionally costly.
