Consults

I thought I would touch on what is involved in a Noteworthy Designs Consult. When possible, I enjoy meeting with my clients face to face at least once. It is a great time for me to get to know the clients, their interests and desires in regards to their stationery. In addition, they can get to know me as I believe that connection is key when designing something so custom.

Top Ten Things to Know for a Noteworthy Designs Consult


1) It is a free initial meeting so that the client and designer can meet


2) Expect to see samples, if you would like


3) Come bearing gifts...I mean samples of anything you have planned so far if your stationery is for an event. If you have color swatches of fabric, dishes, decor or other elements in your wedding, it is great to bring those.


4) Be prepared to talk colors, textures, design elements, all things to do with your unique paper products. And if you aren't sure - no problem. Our samples can help you to decide.


5) As we are based out of our home, we do the initial meetings at a coffee shop, etc and we are willing to travel to one near you.


6) It is a no obligation consult. If you don't think it will be a good fit for you, no problem.


7) Don't be scared if you don't know what vellum, grosgrain ribbon or the difference between an escort card and a seating card is. We will help you through it all!


8) We pride ourselves on doing things custom. If you don't see something you want, just ask.


9) Feel free to bring 1 or 2 people along with you to the consult.


10) Be prepared to have fun and enjoy the process!
