  • What happens if additional research is needed after Stage 1 is completed?

    Additional cost for the specific kind of research will be determined under the circumstances of your project, this means hiring the services again.

  • Is there a possibility to engage your services for subsequent stages after completing Stage 1?

    Yes, that will be either: 1 - Mix of stages 1: Stages 1, 2 and 3 - At a starter tier level | Pre-Design Research, Wireframing (Wireframes) and Low-Fidelity Prototype. 2 - The full service of the User Experience (UX) Design Services - At a starter tier level

  • How will you ensure that the research is comprehensive enough to guide the next stages of the design process?

    For that, we will work together into a collaborative setting doing constant updates and reports from my end to move forward, and example of how this might look like, please check the schedule template for the market research and competitive audit part of the stage below in the "Example: Market Research and Competitive Audit Schedule Template" | Due to amount of characters allowed, I will be adding the link to the answer at; https://www.aslangabrielmoran.com/user-experience-ux-design-services/prices-faqs-and-more-started-level/starter-separated-stages/stage-1-price-pre-design-research-prices-faqs-and-more#h.pnqdogkyr6bz

  • How will my data be stored if I chose to continue with a different provider or only required this stage?

    I retain client data for a maximum of 5 months after the completion of the project, in case you need to hire me for additional work on the same project in the future. The data is stored securely in Google Drive and will be permanently deleted after 5 months. If you would like me to dispose of your data sooner or have specific data retention requirements, please let me know and I will accommodate your request. I take data security and privacy seriously and adhere to best practices for data protection.

  • How do you ensure that the objectives and goals established in Stage 1 align with the overall project vision?

    While being on the 'full service' or 'mix of stages, version 1' this stage of the project is essential to move into the next stages and parts of the design, always being approved by you first. The objectives and goals are established and I'd be constantly working on meeting your objectives based on the research and creation of continuous stages.

  • Can modifications be made to the research plan during Stage 1 based on emerging insights or feedback?

    During Stage 1: Pre-Design Research, there is a built-in flexibility to adjust the research plan as we uncover new insights or receive feedback. This adaptability is confined to the duration of Stage 1. Should new information emerge or additional adjustments be needed after the completion of this stage, and you've engaged this stage as a standalone service, re-engaging my services might be necessary to specifically address these new insights. When we are working with a combination of stages (Mix of stages, version 1), the scope for making adjustments is broader. If we're in a multi-stage engagement, we can integrate changes within the hired time frame across the different stages, offering more flexibility. In the context of the full-service option, where all stages are interconnected, our ability to incorporate changes will depend on the progress and specific phase of the project. Early stages offer more leeway for adjustments, whereas later stages may have constraints due to the foundational work already laid out.

  • What should I expect in terms of follow-up after the service delivered?

    Detailed Documentation: Receive comprehensive documentation of all research findings and strategic insights, a crucial resource for guiding your next steps. | Clarification and Understanding: Schedule a session to dive deeper into the research outcomes, ensuring you fully grasp the insights and their implications for your project. | Seamless Handover: If you're transitioning to a new team, I can facilitate a handover meeting to brief them on the research groundwork, ensuring a smooth continuation of your project. Ongoing Consultation: Engage with me for further advice, support, or feedback as you apply the research insights, ensuring you're never without guidance. | Check-In Support: Opt for a scheduled follow-up to discuss your project's progress and any emerging needs or questions you may have. | Tailored Support Pricing: The pricing for continuous meetings or support will be arranged based on the specific option chosen and the nature of the assistance required. This flexible approach ensures you receive the right level of support, tailored to your project's unique needs.

What's included

  • Understanding Project Goals and Objectives

    I begin with a focused 3-day analysis to fully comprehend the objectives derived from the research you provide. This foundational step is critical for aligning the project with your goals and establishing a clear direction for the subsequent phases.

  • Target Audience Analysis

    Building on the initial understanding, I spend the next 7 days delving into your target audience. By drawing insights from existing research, I identify key audience demographics, behaviors, and preferences, ensuring that the design process is informed by a deep understanding of the end-users.

  • Market Research ad Competitive Audit

    Following the audience analysis, I allocate another 7 days to a thorough examination of your market and competitors. This phase leverages the insights gained about the target audience to explore the competitive landscape, uncovering opportunities and challenges that will shape our strategic approach. *1-5 direct and indirect competitors

  • Strategic Design Foundation

    With a robust understanding of your goals, audience, and market, I dedicate 5 days to synthesizing these insights into a coherent strategy. This involves transforming complex data into actionable insights that will guide the project’s direction, always keeping your objectives and audience needs at the forefront.

  • Documentation and Presentation

    To wrap up this phase, I spend 3 days compiling the research findings and developing comprehensive documentation and presentations. This ensures that all essential insights are effectively communicated, promoting informed decision-making and fostering collaboration as we move forward in the design process.
