Brand Designer Peter Coleman

Your Questions Answered

What does it cost to hire you?

Due to the different requirements of each business I don’t have a fixed price list. My pricing is built around the needs of your business.

The best way to get a quote is to book a Free Brand Discovery Call or contact me here. We can then discuss the best way forwards. My design is based around the needs of your business so you’re essentially paying to increase your bottom line.

What is the process?

Typically my process is the following:

  • Initial Consultation: This could be a Zoom call or a face-to-face meeting, depending on your preference.

  • Needs Analysis: We will discuss your specific requirements, goals, and expectations for the project.

  • Proposal Presentation: I will present a tailored proposal outlining my proposed approach, timeline, and cost.

  • Agreement & Initial Payment: Upon agreement, you will sign the Statement of Work and provide an initial payment of 50% to kickstart the project.

  • Branding Workshop (optional): This is a collaborative session aimed at brainstorming and discussing brand identity, values, and positioning.

  • Project Development: This involves defining the brand strategy, creative direction, and final deliverables. Typically, it includes 5 stages with 2 rounds of feedback at each stage.

  • Project Review: We will regularly review project stages to ensure alignment with your vision and objectives.

  • Project Sign-off & Final Payment: After your approval on the final design, you will make the remaining 50% payment. For larger projects, we can break down payments further for ease.

  • Ongoing Support: I offer ongoing support and reports upon request.

  • Monthly Support Services (optional): You can opt for monthly support services for continued assistance and guidance.

Do you work with anyone else?

From time to time, I collaborate with a select group of partners when necessary. My choice of partners is meticulously curated to ensure the highest quality of service. I exclusively work with professional, UK-based service providers, each with a solid track record of delivering exceptional results.

How long does it take?

The timeline for each project varies based on its specific needs. Typically, a brand identity project takes about 4-5 weeks, while a website project may take around 3-5 weeks, depending on the scope. To ensure that we have enough time for thorough research and optimal creative results, I generally recommend a minimum of 4 weeks for most projects. Please note, maintaining timely feedback loops during the process is crucial in keeping the project on schedule and ensuring the final result aligns with your expectations.

Do you work in our industry?

Absolutely, I work primarily with high-level professionals across a broad spectrum of sectors. My expertise lies in the adaptability of brand strategy principles, which remain consistent regardless of the industry. This allows me to help various professionals drive success and growth within their respective fields.

How does payment work?

Payment for larger projects is conveniently divided into 3-5 phases to provide ease and flexibility. I accept payments via bank transfer. The exact details, including the terms, will be comprehensively outlined in my project proposal. Please note, the final payment is due upon completion of the project, and this is required prior to releasing the final project deliverables. For a detailed look at the terms and conditions of my services, please follow the provided link. My terms and conditions are here

if I choose to work with you, what guarantees do you offer?

Peace of mind is paramount in our collaboration. Once projects are signed off and completed, all produced work—including full website builds, master design files, and more—are sent to you for safekeeping. This ensures you have full access and ownership over all the materials related to your brand.

What if I want a website and not branding?

That’s entirely possible! While branding and website development often go hand in hand, they are separate services and you can opt for one without the other. If you’re specifically interested in having a new website created or improving your existing site, I can certainly help with that.
 
My approach focuses on creating a website that is not only visually appealing but also user-friendly, SEO optimised, and designed to meet your business objectives. Whether it’s an e-commerce platform, a blog, a portfolio, or a corporate website, I can tailor my services to suit your specific needs.
 
Please note, though, that while a great website can help you engage with your audience, a strong brand identity enhances that connection and creates a lasting impression.
 
Therefore, even if your current focus is on website development, considering branding could be beneficial for your business in the long run.

What if I already have a brand, but want to rebrand?

Absolutely, rebranding is a significant part of what I do. I’ll work with you to preserve the parts of your brand that are working well, while updating and improving those that aren’t. We’ll create a new, refreshed brand that aligns with your current business strategy and resonates with your audience.

What do I need to provide for you to start the project?

Initially, I’ll need a thorough understanding of your business, your goals, your audience, and your vision. If you have existing branding elements or marketing materials, those will be helpful as well.

Any other industry-specific information or competitor insights can also be beneficial. We’ll discuss specific requirements during our initial consultation.

Will I own the rights to the design work once the project is completed?

Yes, once the final payment is made, you will have full ownership of the completed design work for your brand.

What happens if I don't like the initial design concepts?

Your satisfaction is paramount. If you’re not happy with the initial concepts, we’ll discuss your concerns and revisions will be made accordingly. I offer a set number of revision rounds within the project scope to ensure the final outcome aligns with your expectations.

Can you help me with print or production of the designs?

I certainly can guide you through the process and provide printer-ready files. I can also liaise with printers and manufacturers on your behalf if needed.

Can you help me with social media and content strategy?

While my main focus is on branding and design, I understand the crucial role of social media and content in today’s digital landscape. I’d be happy to discuss your needs and see how I can assist.

I continuously engage in professional development and industry research. This includes attending relevant workshops, seminars, and online courses, as well as following design blogs, podcasts, and forums. I believe it’s crucial to stay on top of trends and technologies to deliver innovative and effective solutions to my clients.
