This is so cool! Thanks Megan. One question - when you create 2 or 3 versions of design for landing page, do you also create moodboards for the client so they could pick the mood they want, or, do you let them choose design keywords that represent the mood they want? Which way do you think is more effective if you have tried both? Thanks for the amazing video!

Hi Megan, i have a question, you said that you can give them some proposal in two days. For exemple, if you had to design the microsoft website, how many time would you take ? is it something that can be done in two days? I am bigenner, i am asking cause i was trying to build the design of microsoft website on figma to get used to this CMS. And it take me so so much time jsut for the home page (without animation ). And when you re designing an E commerce website, is it really take you two days ? You have to do different template for each customers right, did you give the same template for different client one time (with just different logo and color) or you really try to avoid that?

But do you charge your clients for the copywriter who needs to get paid? Content us the hardest... my clients usually write it themselves but it often takes ages. I like to design off the copy so the client isn't restricted in any way and in my opinion the design should be designed around the copy, not the other way round - as the content is what's most important. Thinking about a solution... maybe I offer them to design with notes so I know what copy needs to be in there and it helps them to finish the copy when having a design structure.

Very good point!! Maybe adding in a note about what’s included in your packages so they understand the value? I think that’s a solid point. I found I was spending time on discovery calls and would spend the whole call getting to know them/ telling them my process, but then as soon as they heard pricing it wouldn’t work so it wasn’t super time efficient for me and them… You definitely have me thinking of how to approach it differently though.

I also had NO clue about task boards - I’ve learned so much from you!!! ♥️
