HOW we do it...THE outline |
I'M FAST...but initially establishing your website consumes the most time. The design methods I use enable me to create new material in a fraction of that time after your website is established. After your site is initially created, we move like lighting when it comes to adding new material. But there is quite a bit of upfront setup time.
|
THE Preliminaries |
Before the creation process begins we determine how many hours per week I am to work on your website. If you are buying a share of my time, you may want to arrange for me to work more hours than your usual timeshare at the outset, to get your initial website up quickly. This is another reason for my 30 hour work week; new sites might require I work up to 60 hours. |
I start working after I am paid for a week's work upfront and I expect to get paid upfront every week thereafter. This arrangement can be modified if you hire me full time. (This applies only to a 30 hour time share NOT extended hours required for initially setting up your website.) |
Initially I won't be able to work without media from you. It is important for you to get the media I need to work with to me as quickly as possible. That media will be: your old and new brochures, artwork, photographs, latest order forms and related spreadsheets or database information. |
You will have your first usable website in two to seven weeks, if I work on it full time, depending on how many products you have and their complexity, and heavily depending on how much additional writing I must create. The initial website will be without videos and many of the flash animations will be added over the weeks to follow. |
It will take approximately one to five months for completion of video presentations with flash animations, depending on how many products you have and their complexity. This is an incremental process. You will have important core videos very quickly at the beginning of the process. Then subsequent videos will be added in the order of their importance. |
Web space must conform to the tools I use. If you have existing web space that conforms but is too small, we have to buy more disk space from your present web host. If you don't have web space, or if existing web space does not conform, please allow me to get it for you. It will save time and money. |
