Custom Website Proposal for Corkscrew Hampden
July 13, 2023
Hi Layota,
Thank you so much for your time this week!
I am so excited for you to open your new food + drink space. It looks absolutely fabulous so far! I love that you’re using your Brenology wines as the base for the sangria, and the peruvian/soul fusion sounds absolutely delicious.
After speaking with you about your website needs, I believe we are a good fit and I would be honored to take on your project.
This proposal details my suggestions for your business, your investment, and important dates. When you are ready to book my services, simply scroll to the bottom to pay your deposit.
Warmly,
Lindsay

Frequently Asked Questions
At this time I am not offering hosting services. However, I am a SiteGround partner. I use and recommend their services! Most of my clients have success with the Managed WordPress GrowBig Plan (affiliate link.)
We will have at least 2 meetings for your website: 1 for design, and 1 for content and copywriting. You will need to attend those. I will also ask you to collect websites, images, colors, and creative assets that you admire so I can get an idea of what you do and don’t like.
You will also be responsible with communicating your needs and wants for the projects, as well as all of the information I need to get the project completed. I will use this to make your project successful!
I communicate with my clients via email, Zoom, and WhatsApp. I may also use links to Google Drive and Google Docs to help complete our work.
Yep! After professionally designing logos, marketing materials, and websites for over 10 years, I’ve streamlined my tools, tech, and process. I offer fast solutions to business owners just like you, because you don’t have time to email back and forth for weeks and months on a design project.
If needed, you’ll receive up to an hour of minor revisions. I’ll also record a training session to show you how to maintain your new tools, if applicable. You’ll receive 30 days of email support where I’ll answer questions or help troubleshoot any concerns that arise during that time.
Plus, as an existing client, you’ll be able to book additional work with me at an hourly rate as needed.
