Our Process
We discuss the project with the client
to determine the specific requirements of the project (number of pages,
number of custom graphics or animations, level of interactivity desired:
online ordering, search engines, chat rooms, etc.)
We also discuss with the client their objectives for the proposed Web
site and help develop a marketing strategy for the site and for building
or strengthening their brand identity on the Internet.
Based on our understanding of the client's requirements, we prepare a
written price quotation so that the client knows the project cost in
advance. We don't bill by the hour, but instead on per item costs
which enables us to offer firm prices at the onset of the project.
Work will be displayed as Web pages at a private, unpublished Web
address known only to the client, instead of print layouts or
storyboards, in order for the client to see a true working prototype
in its real medium. This is the only reliable process for Web design
and production capable of demonstrating whether or not a design
translates well on the Web.
Revisions can be easily and quickly displayed back via the Web for
you to view at your convenience. This makes for quick and easy access
for client approvals and feedback. It's a simple process and
communications are easily handled with e-mail and telephone.
Initial telephone consultation is free of charge.
Our process and pricing method is straightforward.
Wolfspirit Design's creative director, Cheryl Smith, would be happy
to discuss your project or any questions you may have about
establishing an Internet Web presence.
No two projects are the same. Each client has a unique corporate
identity, distinct services or products, and different objectives
for their Web site. Our job is to create a strategically-designed
Web site which will emphasize the client's uniqueness and meet the
client's Web site objectives by differentiating the client in the
marketplace from their competitors.
Prices
All Web pages are not created equal.
Shopping for a Web design firm is not like price comparison shopping
for the "same" item in different stores. As in any other design and
marketing medium, the results and their effectiveness can vary wildly
according to the skills, talent and expertise of the design firm.
If you'd like to compare Web design prices? Check out Net Marketing's
list of what US Web design firms are charging for e-commerce sites.
Another survey reveals that the average price for a 20-page site was
$77,500. in Sept. 1999, whereas our prices for a 20-page site start
at $2000.
Our prices vary according to the number of pages, custom graphics,
custom interactive programming, etc. that are included in the site but
here are a few representative examples of prices. An online store with
10 pages including a 6 page electronic catalogue with interactive
online ordering for up to 25 products starts around $4,000.
A medium-sized site with around 35 pages starts around $8,000.
Small business starter sites begin at $1,895.
You could save money and get a techie in your own department or maybe
even your neighbour's teenage son or daughter to throw some Web pages
together for you.
