Decide how often you like to talk, maybe once a week or more. Choose if you want to use email, phone, or something else. Clear communication stops problems and keeps the project on track.
How can I ensure the deliverables meet my needs?
Write down clear goals for what the design should do. Make a list of the things you must have included, like logos or images. Check with the designer often to make sure everything is going well.
