FAQs

The cost of your job depends on a number of variables. For design jobs, design estimates are based on one or more of the following:

  • Type of job (e.g. a postcard vs. a 16-page brochure)
  • The rounds of edits per project
  • The need to commission a photoshoot
  • The need to hire a freelance proofreader

In order to get started, consider your budget for this job. Plan in advance to vet copy or other content with appropriate team members so when the designer receives the project, he/she has all the relevant details in place. If you鈥檙e unsure of how to prepare, reach out to creatives@villanova.edu to set up a meeting with one of our team members so that we can help guide the process.

Should we find we鈥檙e unable to take on your job due to our workload or scope of the job, we work with a vetted group of freelancers. In this case, the cost of the job will be discussed with the freelancer and must be approved by you, before any work begins.聽

Project duration depends on a number of variables, including:

  • Complexity of the piece
  • Extent of the rounds of edits
  • Number of people needed in the approval process
  • How final the copy is when we receive it

For example, for jobs requiring聽new聽design concepts, we request four to six weeks' lead time. The schedule breakdown looks something like this: the first 10 days are used for meeting with you, developing concepts and design layout; the second 10 days are used for sending design proofs, making edits, and receiving final approvals; and the final 5-10 days are reserved for printing and production. Those six weeks go by very easily!

There are two rules of thumb for how your job will print:

  • If the quantity is under 6,000 and your piece is under 16 pages with no variable data, you can expect a print turnaround of five (5) business days.
  • If your quantity is over 6,000, and/or you have variable data, and/or the pagination is over 16 pages, please plan for seven (7) to 10 business days from when the job goes to print.聽
