FAQ
Why wouldn't I just hire a full-time designer?
Great question! To begin with, hiring a full-time senior-level designer comes with a hefty price tag of over $100,000 per year, including benefits. Furthermore, there might be instances where you don't have sufficient work to keep them occupied consistently, resulting in paying for unutilized time.
By opting for the monthly plan, you have the flexibility to pause and resume your subscription whenever necessary. This allows you to ensure that you're only paying the designer when you actually have work for them, maximizing your utilization of their services.
Is there a limit to how many requests I can have?
Once subscribed, you're able to add as many design requests to your queue as you'd like, and they will be delivered one by one.
How fast will I receive my designs?
Once subscribed, you're able to add as many design requests to your queue as you'd like, and they will be delivered one by one.
Who are the designers?
You might be surprised to hear this, but Gem City Creative is mainly a design studio of one. This means you'll work directly with me, Chris, founder of Gem City Creative. However, requests such as 3D animations as well as some website and design services are provided by our brand designer partners. Click here to see some of our work examples.
How does the pause feature work?
We understand you may not have enough design work to fill up entire month. Perhaps you only have one or two design requests at the moment. That's where pausing your subscription comes in handy.
Billing cycles are based on 31 day period. Let's say you sign up and use the service for 21 days, and then decide to pause your subscription. This means that the billing cycle will be paused and you'll have 10 days of service remaining to be used anytime in the future.
What programs do you design in?
All of our designs are made with Adobe apps.
How do I request designs?
Gem City Creative offers a ton of flexibility in how you request designs using Trello. Some common ways clients request designs is directly via Trello, sharing Google docs or wireframes, or even recording a brief Loom video (for those who prefer not to write their briefs out). Basically, if it can be linked to or shared in Trello, it's fair game.
What if I don’t like the design?
No worries! We'll continue to revise the design until you're 100% satisfied.
What if I only have a single request?
That's fine. You can pause your subscription when finished and return when you have additional design needs. There's no need to let the remainder of your subscription go to waste.
Are there any refunds if I don’t like a service?
Due to the high quality nature of our work, there will be no refunds issued.
