5 MAJOR reasons why Day Rates are better than Traditional Projects

I recently transformed my business model from long, drawn out projects to a day rate model and I couldn’t be happier! It has been life changing!!

When I started my web design business, I was set up like most designers… each project was spread out over a period of 4-6 weeks and had a specific schedule to follow – one that was never actually followed all the way through…

No matter how hard I tried to set up a schedule that made sense to me, it never seemed to work out… The whole week 1 is for the homepage and then week 2 is for feedback felt off…

I mean, it definitely doesn’t take a week to design a homepage and it shouldn’t take a week for a client to provide feedback. I could go on but I think you see my point…

I never understood why a project needed to be drug out for so long. I always found it to be frustrating to try and set a project timeline knowing that I can whip up a website, create a mini brand or setup a course in a day or two if I could get immediate feedback along with having all the information I needed upfront. It is also super frustrating to set a project timeline only to be thrown off schedule when feedback isn’t prompt, or there is a delay in receiving copy, images or other necessary requirements…

As someone who works best when inspired, spreading the work out over an extended time causes me to lose momentum and energy. Not only that, it definitely causes unnecessary frustrations between both me and my clients. Plus, I hate chasing my clients for the things I needed…

While long, drawn out projects may work for some, deep down, I always thought there had to be a better way – a simplified way.

INSERT DESIGNER DAY INTENSIVES – A FULL DAY DEDICATED TO YOU, AND ONLY YOU SO I CAN FOCUS ON YOUR NEEDS!

During a Designer Day Intensive, it’s you + me, with no distractions. So, instead of dragging projects out, my focus is now narrowed down to the project at hand and my clients and I commit to dedicating the whole day (or half day) solely to that project. No more long, drawn out projects and instead, my clients get results fast!

HERE ARE 5 MAJOR REASONS WHY A DAY RATES ARE BETTER THAN TRADITIONAL PROJECTS:

✨ It’s a COLLABORATIVE experience as you’ll be able to give real-time feedback as I’m working

✨ It’s STRAIGHT-FORWARD – you’ll know when I start, when I finish, & what I’ll be working on

✨ You’ll get results FAST – it really doesn’t get much better than ‘done in a day’ work

✨ It’s ORGANIZED – you’ll know exactly what’s going on because there will be a plan of action in place

✨ It’s EFFICIENT – decisions are made quickly in order to make the most of the day

Now that you know WHY I transformed my business model AND know my top 5 reasons why day rates are better… I would love to know if you think day rates for you!!

SO, LET ME ASK, ARE YOU…

👉Tired of never knowing exactly what you are going to earn each month?

👉Tired of wasting hours on discovery calls, writing proposals and calculating how long an entire project will take only to be let down when the client says you’re too expensive?

👉Tired of dealing with the never-ending scope-creep clients?

HOW WOULD IT FEEL TO…

✨ Work only 1 or 2 days per week and you know exactly what days they will be.

✨ Have DREAM clients raving about the work that you’ve done for them – so much so, that you no longer need to spend hours inside of Facebook Groups promoting your services?

Would this be magical and life-changing for you like it was for me?!
