About
In a world saturated with information, how do you hold the attention of your audience?
I started MeadDesign based on the principle that good design is simple, elegant and effective. I follow a straight forward process with my clients, which delivers proven results.
MeadDesign Process
1. Project Discussion
First we discuss goals for your project. I am a very good listener and problem solver. I can help you think out loud. Most clients come to me not quite sure about what they want, or what the options are, and that is ok. We will get to know one another and develop a plan for your project.
2. Project Planning
Next we define an end point and/or phases for the project. Everyone is busy and it is always easier to take things in small bites. We will develop a strategy for each step or phase and set some reasonable deadlines. Some pieces belong to the client, and some I will do. Communication and timeliness are key ingredients for success. We will work as a team, and the collaboration is what makes design work so interesting for me.
3. Project Development
Then we build in small pieces, always with an eye towards other options and possibilities. Your end goal is the primary objective and our plan for getting there may change along the way. We may develop sketches, prototypes, mockups – whatever makes sense for your project.
4. Project Implementation
Finally we will implement the final agreed upon design and make whatever revisions are necessary. Revisions are part of the creative process and it can be really fun to see how an idea for a design evolves and becomes refined to the point where it seems really simple and effortless. You will know what it took to get there!
Maintenance and Support:
Once a project is over, I am there to help with whatever comes up. I stand by my work and have enjoyed long term relationships with my clients over the years. Many of my clients want to take control of their own websites, or be able to work with their own graphics files and I love to empower people to do so. I can help you learn and be a reliable resource for you.
To find out more about me, read my bio, or some client testimonials, or you can see some examples of the work I have done.
