How quickly can I get my 
                                         job?
                                            As soon as you provide us 
                                             with a brief and the information listed 
                                             below we can get started straight away. 
                                             With larger, would send over a couple of 
                                             pages to agree the design before progressing 
                                             with the work.  
                                         We aim to return a first proof 
                                           to you within a couple of days of receiving 
                                           the brief. If you require any amends we 
                                           try to get them to you within a couple of 
                                           days.

                                                 what you would like and how you would 
                                                 like it to look

                                           via e-mail throughout the project. 
                                         What about amends – 
                                           how quickly do they get done and will you 
                                           charge me for them?
                                         We will do all amends for 
                                           you as quickly as we can, if they’re 
                                           simple changes we can do within a few hours. 
                                           It will depend on the structure of the quote 
                                           we have given you as to whether or not amends 
                                           are included in the price - this will always 
                                           be agreed at the outset. 
                                          What if you’re busy 
                                           and my work is urgent?
                                         We have a selection of freelance 
                                           designers that work with us to help when 
                                           we get busy, so as far as you are concerned, 
                                           deadlines should never be a problem and 
                                           we endeavour to start your project straight

                                          How many designers will 
                                           be working on my job?
                                         We will dedicate one designer 
                                           to your project. However, we are flexible 
                                           enough to support one another if necessary. 
                                         Who will I talk to regarding 
                                           my design?
                                         You will be dealing with your 
                                           designated designer directly and can contact 
                                           them at any time during the working day 
                                           either by telephone or e-mail. 
                                         Will I own the files at the 
                                           end?
                                         Yes, if required, we can give 
                                           you a CD with your artwork on it. 
                                         What if I want to get my 
                                           work printed?
                                         We can arrange all your printing 
                                           for you through our relationships with both a local digital printing company and litho printers. We get good prices and a very quick turnaround. If you prefer, we can send print-ready files 
                                           to your existing supplier. 
                                         I want to get started straight 
                                           away – what do I need to do?
