Zee Designs

In this first step we have discussions regarding the format, direction and processes of development for your project(s) and  services requested.

We start by listening. What exactly are you wishing to achieve? Our focus is you, your business, and how we can create print media so you can successfully market your business. We use this information and insight to develop a design, development, and production plan.

Plan Ahead - The Timing of Your Projects

It’s always a good idea to plan at least 30 days for all projects. This usually gives everyone enough time to be thorough with all processes of most projects.

Quick Requests are things like logo art to vendors, business cards for additional staff (once the initial project is complete, it would only need to be revised), reprints of existing projects, and similar jobs. We’ll squeeze this into our day(s) and turn them around quickly for you without incurring rush fees whenever possible.

Receipt of All Content
This is the most important facet of understanding project delivery time. Most often than not, it is the client that delays their own projects through delay in sending us information or files required to complete the project. We understand what it takes to run a business and how challenging it can be to focus and follow through on one project at a time. With multi-tasking common place these days, people can forget what it takes to really get something accomplished.

Realizing this, Zee Designs does its best to support our clients with retrieving as much data as we can with as minimal interaction with the client as possible. For instance, “Give us the contact information for your photographer, and we’ll make the request.” “Give us the contact information for your assistant and we’ll ask for copies of this and that.” “If you can provide us with a draft, we can acquire professional writing services.” I’m sure you all get the drift of this.

When we receive content in “dribs and drabs,” that’s fine by us. We don’t mind reviewing and organizing materials as they come to us. However, it’s easy to see how a delay with receiving ALL content for a project can cause delays and rushes with a project’s final delivery date.

When it comes right down to it though, we rely on the content that is provided by you and your associates as well as the time you make for us during the many project phases as indicated above to get your projects done in a timely manner.
