✦ 1. First Hello → Discovery Call
It all begins when you reach out. I schedule a quick call (around 5–10 minutes) to understand your project type, goals, and timeline. This is also your chance to get a feel for how I work and ask questions before we move ahead.
✦ 2. Understanding Your Needs → Project Form
Once we’ve spoken, I’ll share a short Google Form. This helps gather your requirements, inspiration, and expectations in one place. Having it in writing ensures nothing gets missed and makes the next steps more efficient.
✦ 3. Deep Dive → Detailed Discussion & Estimate
After reviewing your form, we’ll have a more detailed interaction to refine scope and direction. I’ll then share a clear estimate and timeline so you know exactly what’s included and what to expect.
✦ 4. Defining the Scope
Before we begin, we agree on the project scope, deliverables, and timelines. Any additional requests beyond the agreed scope are treated as add-ons and quoted separately.
✦ 5. Communication That Works
▸ Primary communication happens via email (or a shared project board if required).
▸ Quick check-ins can happen over calls, but approvals and feedback must be shared in writing.
▸ Timely feedback helps keep the project on track.
