The DoodleDo Design Form – Designed for Meeting Expectations

Our design clients are very familiar with the form we use to begin a new design. Photographer Lisa Fitts asked DoodleDo to “keep it very clean and simple” while noting her preference for a black and white theme with light graphics. The Design & Preferences Form gives each of you the opportunity to indicate all the critical foundational information we need to come up with a good concept. It also allows for additional comments, such as Lisa’s, to aid us in providing a first draft that will meet your expectations, as well as your client’s expectations. This not only saves time but often cuts down on revisions. In fact, used well and in dialogue with your own client, it can eliminate revisions altogether.

If you have signed onto our Email List and completed an Account Application, then you should have the link to our online Design Form. Use this for each and every design you want us to create for you. We encourage you to provide as much information you feel necessary to communicate your own ideas. And be sure to include the client! Ask if they have any ideas or special requests regarding the design. Feel free to send them to our Design pages to view samples for reference, then indicate your likes, and even dislikes, on the Form. These practices will help a great deal in achieving a satisfying first draft with little or no revisions.

A detailed Design Order & Preferences Form, referencing the design samples here on the website, and providing a folder of Must Have images will help us meet everyone’s expectations right from the start. In an upcoming post we will discuss this very important Must Have image collection, and some ways to use it to your advantage.
