Although I'm open to work on retainer or on an hourly basis, for most projects I create a bid. My bids are easy to understand and serve as a starting place to talk about your project cost and where exactly your money (my time) goes.
Even if you don't hire goldmanDesign I recommend you never work without a detailed, line-itemed bid that your designer creates based on your specific requirements.
I'm fast. I've used most common production software since 1994.
Goldman Design Headquarters (which happens to be in my home in Seattle) is equipped with scanners, digital audio i/o, separate test and development machines, Mac and PC, and all the most popular design and development software apps
I'm a Microsoft vendor. You open a PO, we fill out a Statement of Work (SOW) and we're good to go.
