discovery call with kayla
Once you reach out, we'll promptly arrange a personalized Zoom discovery call with our founder, Kayla, at a time that suits you best.
In this conversation, we'll dive into your story, aspirations, and challenges in your photography journey. It's a chance for us to understand you better, explore your goals, and see how we can best support you. Kayla will guide you through our services and process, providing an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have!
2.
make it official
Following the discovery call, Kayla will share our comprehensive service selection guide with you. Here, you can pick your brand designer, select your website service, and explore exciting add-ons like blog content creation or email lead generation funnel design and setup.
To secure your dedicated project timeline, a 10% retainer fee and a signed contract for services are required. Let's make your vision official!
3.
Deep dive
Hooray, you are officially booked and now the fun begins! Promptly after your signed contract, our virtual assistant and project manager, Sarah, will be reaching out to you and sending our tried and true BRAND DEVELOPMENT GUIDE!
This guide goes through several questionnaires, helping you walk through your desired visual aesthetics, mission and vision, dream client demographics and psychographics and finally your brand voice! All are extremely important for diving deep into the purpose and mission of your brand!
4.
STRATEGY CALLS
Time to dive into the nitty-gritty! We've got two strategy calls coming your way to kickstart our project:
First up is the Branding Kick Off call. Kayla will lay out the game plan, covering your vision, mission, dream client, and what sets you apart. Then, she'll whip up a moodboard based on your work and BDG info. Gotta make sure we're seeing eye to eye before we jump into the design trenches!
On the Website Strategy Call, Kayla will walk you through your custom Trello board and break down each page's content. It's all about crafting a solid game plan, so get ready to bring your A-game on the content front!
5.
brand suite delivery
Get ready for a fully customized design suite in just 2-3 weeks! This includes a main logo, alternate logos, sub-marks, pattern design, illustrative elements, signature, color palette, and typography—all in full color and black and white!
We'll present it all in a brand suite document, showcasing how each element works together. Plus, you'll get a Loom video with your designer explaining the vision behind each design. After your feedback, we'll make edits in the following week. Let's make your brand stand out!
6.
UX Design & wireframes
Here's what gets my passion firing up in our process—it's the strategic core! Elly, our SEO strategist and copywriter, dives into your Brand Development Guide (BDG), conducting keyword research tailored to your location and niche.
Once she's got the optimal keywords, Elly rolls up her sleeves and crafts wireframes. These are essential tools that shape your website's content and layout, free from the distractions of visuals like color and photography.
Why this approach? Because we believe in a strong and powerful message. To achieve that, we let the copy lead the way in visual design—not the other way around.
7.
Showit design
Once your branding gets the green light from you, it's Showit time! Our fantastic Showit designers take Elly's wireframes and bring them to life, seamlessly blending your new branding with your stunning photography.
Each page undergoes a careful review from Kayla before reaching you. Once she gives the nod, the page, along with a Loom video detailing our design thoughts, is all yours to review and send feedback!
Why the page-by-page review? Simple—it ensures your website truly reflects YOU. We're all ears for your ideas and suggestions, fostering a collaborative spirit that elevates the design. Many minds, great design—that's our motto!
8.
Final strategy call
As we approach the final stages of your website design, it's time to schedule your last strategy call with Kayla. In this meeting, she'll guide you through the exciting details of your upcoming launch. Get ready for a collaborative planning session where you'll pick and plan for the big launch day!
But wait, there's more! It's not just about choosing a launch day; together, you'll also craft a game plan for your launch week celebration on social media. That's right—we'll create a week's worth of Instagram graphics, including stories and post graphics, to help you shout out your new brand and website!
9.
launch week celebration
Cheers to your fabulous website and brand making waves in the world, working as a powerhouse tool for your business! Now, it's time to create a buzz on social media and revel in the success we achieved TOGETHER.
We'll deliver all the social media graphics we discussed in our final strategy call the week before the launch, ensuring you're just as thrilled about your visuals as we are (and giving you time to plan your feed).
During launch week, soak in the fun and show some love to your supporters who've helped your business thrive. We absolutely adore it when our clients throw giveaways—it's a fantastic way to celebrate, build excitement, and give back to your amazing community!
10.
continued partnership
At Something Blue Design Co, our clients aren't just clients; they're lifelong partners. Think of us as your dedicated design team, always here to support you!
After your website launch, Sarah will send over your offboarding guide. It includes a comprehensive video by Elly, breaking down the SEO work done on your site for optimal keyword performance. Plus, you'll find Showit tutorials, guiding you on updating your new site with photos and galleries.
But that's not all! We've got your back with an SEO blog guide, a handy tool for your future blog writing endeavors.
Our goal is to set you up for success and ensure you feel confident using your new brand and website. And because we understand that websites evolve with your business, we offer design days for past clients to book whenever they need a boost in their online presence!
