Design Services
I offer web design, logo design, header design, web graphics design, ebook design, and business card design. I have also begun offering Budget Options and Special Packages.
Question: What’s the difference between regular design stuff, Budget Options, and Special Packages? I’m confused!
Here is where I explain it, and make a friendly comparison chart for you: Comparisons: What Do You Actually Need, Anyway?
MOST ASKED-FOR SERVICES
Web Design
I design both static websites and dynamic websites. For dynamic websites, I build using Wordpress and Thesis.
You can find my portfolio of web designs here.
Pricing for Web Design
A static website starts at $1000.
Wordpress + Thesis websites start at $2000.
Question: Do I have to use Thesis?
I can design on any other theme you want to use, including free and paid themes. Here are five reasons to use Thesis.
Question: Why are you using an existing theme as a framework?
My special brand of awesome means that I am great at design and great at augmenting a pre-existing theme to look amazing. Also, using an existing theme cuts down on production time.
Consulting and Coaching to Make You Awesome
I offer a unique brand of down-to-earth, friendly, creative consulting and coaching for the business owner (or wannabe business owner) who could really use some help and direction. I also package up some of my design services for the clients who need a little bit of change made to their existing website, so talk to me about that if this seems right for you.
Pricing for Awesome-izing Consulting and Coaching
Hourly rates for Consulting and Coaching start at $125.
Package rates for Consulting and Coaching go like this: $230 for two hours (discount!), $450 for four hours (bigger discount!), or $650 for six hours (biggest discount!).
Question: why is it consulting AND coaching? That’s kind of confusing.
I couldn’t settle on one or the other, and then I realized that is because I am actually doing BOTH for you. You can hit me up for ideas, run things past me, ask my opinion or advice. That’s consulting. And I can create structure for your thoughts, give you specific tasks to help bring out your awesome ideas, and give you concrete, specific steps to take. That’s coaching.
Logo Development & Design
I design great logos that introduce and augment your business or personal identity. My logo designs are very typographical in nature, and may include judicial use of accenting graphics or illustrations.
You can find my portfolio of logo designs here.
Pricing for Logo Design
Logo designs are $600.
Question: What’s the difference between a logo and a header?
A logo is something that has been carefully developed to represent you and your brand. It can be used on the web, as part of your website, your Twitter background, and your advertising; and it can also be printed on physical items such as letterhead, tshirts, magnets, and business cards.
A header is part of every great website design, but is not intended for use anywhere else. It cannot be used in print materials because it was designed for web resolution, not print resolution.
Wordpress themes from PSD graphics
I am happy to offer a new service this year, specifically targeted to designers who need to outsource the coding of the lovely delicious design they created.
Pricing for PSD to Wordpress
PSD-to-WP pricing starts at $325. Talk to us first about your design and what functionality you need, so that we can get it perfect for you.
Twitter Background + Avatar
I offer Twitter backgrounds with custom matched profile colors, and a unique avatar that matches.
Pricing for Twitter background and avatar
Twitter background + Avatar is $125.
Question: What if I only want a background?
I have special pricing for backgrounds only, so let me know what you need. :)

Your Wordpress-based website needs to be kept updated, along with your plugins. And your data should be backed up regularly. Would you rather give this job to someone who can do it efficiently and quickly? I’d love to help.
Pricing for Wordpress Maintenance
Wordpress Maintenance is $100 per hour a la carte.
Wordpress Monthly Maintenance starts at $200/month for 3 hours of maintenance per month (you get a free hour!). If you have a larger site or need more work done, I will create a special package for you.
