One of the best things you can do when meeting with a graphic designer or website design is bring in samples. Look at other businesses marketing products and websites that you like and also designs that you don't like. Look for:
- Design
- Layout
- Content
- Colors
- Pictures
This gets you thinking about what you specifically want and it gives your designer a visual idea of where their client eventually wants to end up.
Ed from Your Neighbors' New Kitchen.com did just that when he came to me. He brought me a copy of an HGTV magazine and said he wanted his new website to be like that - focus on the kitchen design, big beautiful pictures, small before photos, something fun, colorful, bright, interesting, and informative about kitchen re-facing. That is what we designed him. A colorful website that focuses on the kitchens. Check out his website online -

Below are samples from his website we designed last month. Enjoy.
I love working with my clients on a variety of projects from logo design, advertisements, brochures, educational materials, exhibits, flyers, posters, identity packages, business cards, mailers, or websites. Mainly if you need it printed or put online Susan Searway Art & Design can help you get it there.
