DESIGN RETAINER
Monthly Retainers cater to clients with diverse design needs on a recurring basis.
Here's a brief overview of how the Retainer Fee agreement operates between the designer and client:
​
- Clients benefit from a discounted rate compared to standard hourly or a la carte rates.
- Enjoy peace of mind with a guaranteed amount of work each month, ensuring project priority.
- The fee remains consistent throughout the contract duration, eliminating concerns about fluctuating design fees.
- Gain access to professional design services without the overhead costs associated with hiring an employee.
- Most design services are covered within the monthly price, including graphic design, layout, marketing, web maintenance, and social media marketing.
- Retainer fee payments are made at the beginning of each month, providing clients with dedicated time rather than a specific service. Depending on the chosen retainer package, we allocate the appropriate number of hours monthly and plan our workload accordingly.
