Process

Here’s what onboarding looks like once you join the Creative Essentials plan. We keep it simple, async, and frictionless so we can get rolling quickly.

1. Kickoff & Welcome

You’ll receive a welcome message with a few next steps.

We’ll gather key info about your business, brand, and goals through a short onboarding form.

2. Slack Channel Setup

We’ll create a dedicated Slack channel for real-time async communication.

You’ll be invited to join and can start chatting with your assigned designer and project lead.

3. Notion Access

You’ll get access to your custom Notion Project Management Dashboard, which includes:

Active & queued requests

Priority board

Timelines & due dates

Feedback loops and version history

4. Project Tracker Setup

We’ll set up your first active project and walk you through how to submit requests moving forward.

You can drop tasks directly into the Notion dashboard or share context via Slack.

5. Introductions & Team Alignment

Quick intros to your dedicated Senior Full-Stack Designer and any support teammates.

We’ll align on collaboration preferences, creative guardrails, and brand references.

6. Access & Assets

We’ll request access to relevant software or tools (Figma, Adobe CC, Google Drive, etc.).

You can upload brand assets, past creative references, or files via Notion or Slack.

7. Creative Tech Stack Setup

We’ll configure and align on your working creative tech stack, which may include:

Figma (Design)

Notion (Project Management)

Slack (Async Comms)

Google Drive / Dropbox (File Sharing)

Any other tools you already use and want us plugged into

8. First Creative Sprint Begins

With everything in place, we start on your first project request.

Expect your first deliverables within 3–5 business days, depending on complexity.

FAQs

1. What types of projects can I request?
You can request anything from static ad creatives and pitch decks to light landing page designs, branding updates, and social graphics. We’ll always scope your request to make sure it fits within the flow of the retainer.
2. How do “unlimited requests” actually work?
You can queue up as many requests as you’d like, and we’ll work on one active request at a time. Once it’s completed, we’ll move on to the next in your queue — simple and streamlined.
3. Who will I be working with?
You’ll be working directly with me, Justin, and occasionally joined by our friendly office pup, Bubbies, for moral support. You’ll also be partnered with a Senior Full-Stack Designer who leads your day-to-day creative execution, with additional team members plugged in as needed to deliver top-tier work.
4. How fast is the turnaround time?
Most deliverables are completed within 3–5 business days, depending on scope and complexity. We’ll communicate clearly if anything falls outside that window.
5. What if I need something outside the scope?
We’ve got you. If you need services like motion/3D design or a larger-scale custom project, we can scope that separately or plug in additional support through our Creative Engine or Partner+ plans.
