If you've had half as much fun using our websites as we've had making them... then we've have twice as much fun making our websites as you've had using them.
So this form looks pretty nasty, right? It's not, we promise. It's designed to simplify things from here on out. Don't feel stressed by it. Fill it out as best you can. Some things you might know. Some you might not. That's what we're here for. What you tell us helps us figure out what you need and what you want and when you want it and how much it'll cost and how easy i't'll be to get it done and how much time it'll take to get it done in......
Boy. That was a mouthful.
BASIC INFORMATION
ENOUGH ABOUT YOU. LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS.
Describe the marketing strategy of our business. What is the purpose for your website? Who are your best current customers? If you don't have any yet, who do you want to come visit your website? We're not looking for specific companies, but rather, why types of people are you interested in as visitors? Type as much as you want, we've got room.
What do you expect to be included within your website? What do you want people to see and know? How many pages do you think it will take? If you're not sure, guess. We've got to start somewhere, right?
Do you have a domain name? If so, hopefully you put it in the Basic Information section of this form. If not, hop over to the left and fill that bit out. If you don't have a domain name, what are some ideas you've thought about? Jot a few of them down here. If the cockles of your brain are a blaze with creativity, you can write more than one domain name per line, if you so desire.
DETAILS... DO THE QUESTIONS EVER END?
Let's talk imagery. Do you have a logo or logos? Any other imagery that you'd like to use on your site? Discuss.
Color is always important on a site. Have you thought about a color scheme? Maybe a few colors you'd like to see on the site, perhaps?
Are there any websites that you like? Even if it's some small piece that you like and want to incorporate on your site, jot that down. List the domain name and any specifics that are relevant.
Alternatively, are there websites you can't stand? We can tell a lot by what you might not like. As before, please list the domain name and any specifics that are relevant.
Will you be needing any e-commerce on your site, like a shopping cart so people to buy your stuff?
If so, how many items do you think you'd be wanting to sell. Any options for any/each item?
Have you ever used or do you plan to use PayPal as a payment processing method?
WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE...
When this whole project is complete, how do you intend for the site to maintained? Keep in mind that the answer to this question directly affects the cost of the project. If you intended to edit any portion of the site without knowledge of a web language, there is extra cost involved, be it extra time on the designer's part or the purchase of additional software like Adobe Contribute.
Do you or anyone in your organization have any experience in web design?
Are you interested in Search Engine Optimization for your site? That is, are you wanting to be put out there on places like Google so people can find your site?
MONEY DOESN'T TALK. IT SWEARS.
What sort of budget do you have to work with?
With an idea of your budget, we can tell you what we can do that fits your budget or recommend a strategy.
FRIENDS, ROMANS, CLIENTS...WE LEND YOU OUR EARS
Any other ideas, comments or question?
