Design services that fit any advertising budget

At Like Minds Designs, we understand that purchasing creative services can be confusing for the customer. Unlike a standard good purchased from a store, graphic design services vary for each job. Our years in the creative field help us to estimate how long certain projects will take and will cost. Our job proposals include a combination of a flat rate design fee and an hourly billing estimate to ensure that our clients receive the highest quality design work at the best price for their advertising budget.

Our design prices are determined by our level of expertise and our low operating costs. We believe you will find Like Minds Designs' rates to be significantly lower than larger companies in the advertising field.

Each design proposal conains the following elements:

The Flat Fee:

Your custom project proposal will specifically detail what is included in your flat rate. The flat rate will specify the number of versions you can expect for your initial design. It will also list the number of revision rounds included, as well as final design finishing services and production services. Like Minds Designs guarantees you will not pay more for the services detailed in your flat rate quote, even if the project takes longer than we originally estimated.

Hourly Billing Rate:

Should a project require additional revision rounds beyond those specified in the flat fee, the additional drafts will be billed on an hourly basis. We will provide an up-front hourly estimate as changes are requested on a case basis. If additional revisions drafts are not needed, the client is not charged beyond the flat rate. In some cases, a client will also request to add additional services to a project, such as extra website pages that were not included in the original proposal. These types of additions are also be billed at the hourly rate. Hourly charges are then added to the flat rate upon final invoice.

Vendor Costs:

Your quote proposal will also include estimated vendor costs for your job. We work with a network of trusted vendors who provide services such as printing or stock photography. Often we are able to purchase these services at a wholesale rate, and can pass the savings along to our clients. We are also happy to work with any vendors who our clients prefer. At the time of final invoice, our client will only be charged for any vendor costs actually incurred.

Always Included:

We pride ourselves on the one-on-one interaction that is missing with larger firms. We don't want our customers paying extra for an account executive to play liaison between client and designer. Instead, our clients speak directly to the person who is providing the creative ideas and design services. We encourage our customers to email and call us as much as they like, and provide individualized attention for every client and project.
