Your Budget and Time-Scale

It is important to realise that your budget is a factor in the final solutions of your design. The more development a design takes, the more it will cost. By ensuring you have clearly defined you audience and goals, this will help us advise you on what is possible with your budget.
Time scale is also an important consideration, if you need a website to coincide with any other marketing, let us know the deadline.

Consult with Colleagues

Consult with as many people within your organization as possible before sending the brief. Showing the design brief to lots of different people will highlight remarkable differences in opinion about the operating circumstances and aspirations of your organization.
