A NOTE FROM THE STUDIO

You don’t need
all the answers.

An old website. An idea. A question you haven’t quite figured out. Bring what you have. We’ll work out the next step together.Ask us anything
01YOUR STARTING POINTCan you work with the website I already have?

Yes. We start by looking at what is working, what is getting in the way, and what your current setup allows. From there, we recommend focused improvements or a rebuild when it would serve you better.

02A NEW BUSINESSWhat if I’m starting from a clean slate?

That is a good place to begin. We can help connect the identity, the words, and the website so your business feels like one clear idea from the start. We will agree on the pieces you actually need.

03SCOPE & INVESTMENTHow much does a project cost?

It depends on the scope: what we are making, how much content is involved, and the functionality you need. You receive a written scope and price before work begins. Any additions are discussed and agreed on first.

04THE TIMELINEHow long will it take?

We agree on a realistic timeline once the scope is clear. The number of pages, design needs, available content, and feedback all shape the schedule. You will know the milestones and what we need from you along the way.

05WORDS & IMAGESDo I need to supply all the words and photos?

Bring what you have. We can help with messaging and copy, and work out which photos or other assets the project needs. Any photography, licensing, or content work is included in the scope before we begin.

06OWNERSHIP & CAREWhat happens after launch? Do I own the site?

You receive the finished website files and a clear handoff, with your domain and accounts in your name. Hosting and any ongoing costs are agreed on upfront. You can manage things yourself, work with someone else, or choose ongoing support from SlateMark.
