Scope of work
Everything that's included
Four workstreams, one team. Each deliverable below is fixed-scope — no vague "and more" — so you know precisely what you're getting.
01
Brand identity
A confident, modern identity that finally looks like the category leader Acme already is.
- Logo system — primary mark, monogram, and responsive lockups
- Color palette, typography scale, and an iconography set
- Voice & tone guide with messaging pillars and example copy
- A 40-page brand guidelines PDF your whole team can use
02
Website design
A 12-page marketing site designed mobile-first, from the homepage down to the smallest empty state.
- Sitemap, wireframes, and two homepage design directions
- High-fidelity designs for all 12 pages, desktop and mobile
- A reusable component & design-token library in Figma
- Accessibility pass to WCAG 2.2 AA contrast and focus standards
03
Build & launch
We build the site on a fast static stack and ship it — no hand-off-and-pray.
- Production build with a CMS your marketing team can edit
- Analytics, SEO metadata, sitemap, and 301 redirect mapping
- Performance budget: sub-1.5s loads and 95+ Lighthouse scores
- Launch day support and a 30-day post-launch warranty
04
Enablement
You leave the engagement able to run the brand and the site without us.
- Two live training sessions for your marketing team (recorded)
- A Loom library covering every common edit and publish flow
- A 30-day Slack channel for questions after launch
Timeline
Fourteen weeks, five gates
Each phase ends at an approval gate. Nothing moves forward until you've signed off, so you're always in control of the schedule.
1
Discovery & strategy
Weeks 1–2
Stakeholder interviews, a competitive audit, and a written strategy brief we both sign off on before any pixels move.
Strategy brief approved
2
Brand identity
Weeks 3–5
Two identity directions, one round of refinement, and a finished brand system delivered as guidelines plus working files.
Brand system delivered
3
Website design
Weeks 5–9
Wireframes to high-fidelity designs for all 12 pages, reviewed in weekly working sessions so there are no big surprises.
All pages approved

Build & integrate
Weeks 9–13
We build the site, wire up the CMS, migrate content, and put everything through QA on real devices.
Staging site ready for review
5
Launch & handoff

Good to know
A few common questions
What do you need from us to start?
A single point of contact for approvals, access to your current analytics and brand assets, and roughly two hours a week of review time at the gates.
What if our timeline slips?
Phases are gated by your approvals, so the schedule flexes with your feedback. We re-baseline the launch date together whenever a gate moves.
Can we change tiers later?
Yes — you can upgrade from Essential to Signature mid-project and we'll credit the difference. Downgrades aren't possible once a phase is underway.
Who owns the work?
You do. On final payment, every source file, design token, and line of code is yours, with no lock-in to us or any platform.
