preferred vendors

An important part of designing is the final product that you receive at the end of the day. After working in the print industry, I know what to look for in a quality printer and mailing house. Up-to-date technology, finishing skill, a keen eye for detail and consistency amongst finished products are vital traits to make it to my preferred vendor list. I am a strong advocate of shopping local when possible. SNAP! Printing, VP Demand Creations, and Leelanau Enterprise (Michigan) and Gutenberg Transfer Printing (California) are my local printers of choice for basic printing and high volume direct mail needs.

policy

It is my personal policy to provide competitive pricing for individuals, small businesses and nonprofit organizations. If you are provided with a quote from another company, I will do my best to beat that price AND provide you with the quality design you expect and deserve. I use only the highest quality software, Adobe Creative Cloud, and am continually educating myself on the newest techniques and trends in the graphic design industry.

Hours of Operation

Monday-Friday 5PM-9PM
Saturday 9AM-1PM
Sundays – Closed to be with Family
Holidays – Closed to be with Family
PLEASE NOTE: Currently I work out of my home so my hours can vary if we have an illness in the household.

Scheduling

Scheduling in advance (one week is preferred, but a few days is helpful) will allow me to reserve time for you and make your project a top priority. Schedule a collaboration meeting!

Client Responsibility

Full disclosure on intent and target audience is requested from Client to ensure quality and timely outcome. New clients are to fill out the New Client Profile. (link to form)

Communication & File Proofs

My preferred method of communication is via email. If a phone or video conversation is requested, I am happy to schedule an appointment with you to offer you my undivided attention. Schedule a collaboration meeting!
Loft Two will use ClickUp for Client proofs, edits and approvals. Client will receive documentation on how to become familiar and navigate the program. All proofs will be low resolution and include the Loft Two watermark to protect artist creative rights. The watermark will be removed upon completion of the project, delivery of the artwork and/or completed payment.

Rush Jobs

Projects that have an unusually quick turnaround or that require work outside of my normal business hours, on weekends or holidays are subject to an additional fee.

Purchased Photos

If images are required to be purchased for a project, the purchased files will be delivered to Client upon receipt of final payment. It is the policy of Loft Two that we will not use images found online without permission of the original creator.

Project Deposits

A 35% non-refundable deposit is required for any projects quoted over $100.00. The remaining balance is due upon delivery of artwork. In the event of Client cancellation of the project, the deposit is forfeited and any additional design time and incidentals incurred are due immediately upon cancellation.

Billing

Billing occurs on the 1st of every month for hourly clients or clients on retainer. Hourly/Retainer invoices are due within 15 days of receipt of invoice. Miscellaneous projects will be billed upon project completion. Payment is due upon receipt of invoice.
Overdue invoices will receive a late of $25 + 15% interest of the balance owed. These fees will continue to be added to your account until the balance is paid in full. If an account becomes chronically late, the account will be put on a Cash On Demand (COD) status before any design work is started.

Payment Options

Payment options include Cash, Check, ACH Withdraw, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and Apple Pay.
