Design Consulting Services

Great design shouldn't be out of reach. Whether you need quick guidance on customizing a template or comprehensive design consulting for a major project, our team meets you exactly where you are.

01

Design Support That Fits Your Needs

Not every project needs a full design agency. Sometimes you just need someone to answer a question about fonts, review your layout, or help you choose the right template. Other times, you need deep collaboration on a complex brand project. We offer both—and everything in between.

  • No Minimums

    Start with a 15-minute template consult or book hours for a comprehensive project. Pay for what you need.

  • Real Designers

    Work directly with experienced print designers who understand production, materials, and best practices.

  • Quick Turnaround

    Template feedback within 24 hours. Full project timelines tailored to your deadlines.

Three Levels of Support

  1. Template Guidance

    Quick help customizing our templates: font pairings, layout tweaks, color advice. Perfect for DIYers who want expert input. Free for customers; $25 standalone consultation.

  2. Design Sessions

    Hourly design consultations for more involved projects. We'll review your materials, provide feedback, suggest improvements, or guide you through design decisions. $95/hour, no minimum.

  3. Full-Service Design

    Comprehensive design collaboration for complex projects, brand systems, or large print runs. Fixed project pricing based on scope. Includes revisions, file prep, and production oversight.

Template Customization Support

What's Included

Choose any template from our designer library, and we'll help you make it yours. Our template support covers logo placement, typography selection, color customization, layout adjustments, and print readiness checks.

  • Font pairing recommendations
  • Color scheme guidance aligned with your brand
  • Layout tweaks for visual hierarchy
  • Quick file checks before printing

How It Works

Start customizing a template using our designer tool. If you get stuck or want professional input, submit your design for review. We'll provide detailed feedback within 24 hours—often with annotated screenshots or quick video walkthroughs.

This service is complimentary for customers printing with us. Standalone consultations are $25 per template.

04

Hourly Design Consultations

When You Need More Than Templates

Hourly design sessions give you direct access to our designers for more complex needs. We'll review your existing materials, provide strategic feedback, help you refine concepts, or guide you through design decisions for multi-piece projects.

  • Design reviews and critique
  • Brand consistency guidance
  • Print production advice (bleeds, trims, finishes)
  • File troubleshooting and optimization

Flexible & Transparent

Book sessions in 1-hour increments at $95/hour. No contracts, no retainers, no surprise fees. Sessions can be live (video call) or asynchronous (detailed written feedback with mockups).

Most clients need 1-3 hours total for projects like business card suites, postcard campaigns, or event materials.

05

Full-Service Design Projects

For larger projects—brand identity systems, multi-touchpoint campaigns, or high-volume print runs—we offer comprehensive design services with fixed project pricing. You'll work closely with a dedicated designer from concept through final production, with structured revisions and clear deliverables.

  • Scope & Proposal

    After a discovery session, we'll provide a detailed scope document and fixed-price proposal. No hourly uncertainty.

  • Iterative Process

    Structured revision rounds ensure your feedback is incorporated efficiently. Typical projects include 2-3 revision cycles.

  • Production Oversight

    We prep final files, coordinate with our print team, and oversee quality from design through delivery.

Example Projects: Complete business card suites (5+ variations), branded stationery systems, product launch collateral, event materials, packaging design. Contact us for a custom quote.
