It is important and extremely helpful for the Client to express their desires for the project BEFORE the Project Design Process begins. OPD is happy to assist the Client in choosing elements for the project but will not “try out” several different designs before committing to a Final-Launch/Final-Design. If the Client expresses a clear design plan (by way of explanation, drawing, sending of links or images, etc.), the design will be created as accurately as possible. Turnaround time is given on a case by case bases. The key reason for this is our services vary and we work hard to customize each project. Clients will receive their full turn around schedule in the Project Proposal via email.
