  • What will I need to provide to start the project?

    I have prepared a detailed list of questions to help you provide all the necessary information for the project. You can review and answer these questions before the kickoff meeting. These questions will include: - Information about your business, mission, vision, and target audience. - Main competitors and your expectations for your brand's position compared to them. - Specific design style requirements (colors, fonts, logo, etc.). I will send this detailed list via email so you can prepare in advance. The kickoff meeting will allow us to discuss your answers further and clarify any necessary details.

  • How many times can I request design revisions?

    I always aim to ensure you're satisfied with the final result. Typically, I offer up to 3 free revisions after presenting the design concept. If further revisions are needed after that, I will discuss the details to ensure the project stays on track and maintains quality.

  • What will I receive after the project is completed?

    Absolutely! If you need additional design elements (e.g., advertising banners, packaging designs) during the project, I can update the plan and adjust the timeline and cost accordingly.

  • How does the number of packaging designs affect the design cost?

    The number of packaging designs has a significant impact on design costs. When multiple packaging designs are required, the cost may increase due to: - Workload: More packaging designs demand more time and effort to create distinct or customized designs for each product type. - Variety in size and shape: Different packaging may require designs tailored to each size and shape, adding complexity to the project. - Print optimization: Designing multiple packaging types requires files to be optimized for various materials and printing methods, which also increases design costs. If you have more than one packaging design to create, I recommend considering my packaging design services to optimize both quality and time.

  • If I'm not satisfied with the final result, can I request a refund?

    I'm committed to working with you to ensure maximum satisfaction. If you're not happy with the final result, we will continue to revise the design until an agreement is reached. However, refund terms will be discussed in detail in the initial project contract.
