• The first step is to submit a project inquiry on the contact page. Once it’s received, your project details are reviewed to make sure the fit and timing are right. If everything aligns, we’ll connect for an intro call to get to know each other, talk through your needs, and make sure Field Day is the best teammate for your project goals — and if not, I’ll happily share referrals who might be a better fit.

    At that time, I can give you a good idea of where you are in the queue.

    Following our call, you’ll receive a custom scope outlining your deliverables, timeline, a list of what I’ll need from you, and confirmed pricing. Once you approve your scope, your 50% deposit is due along with all required materials — both must be submitted for your project to be added to the queue and to lock in a start date.

    Required materials typically include an onboarding questionnaire, inspiration boards, high‑res logo files, brand assets, service descriptions, team bios and photos, brand images or stock image direction notes, and any key information or access needed for technical setup.

    The goal is always to keep moving down the field. Your project timeline is outlined clearly at the start, but it depends on how quickly homework and feedback are delivered. When materials arrive on time, the process stays smooth, efficient, and right on schedule.

  • You’ll work directly with one creative partner from start to finish unless we determine that your project calls for specialized strategy or skills, such as advanced SEO frameworks or integrations. Any partnerships or hand‑offs are communicated and agreed upon as a team.

    As a Squarespace Circle member, Field Day brings deeper platform knowledge and best‑practice guidance to your project. This means your site is built with long‑term ease in mind and handed over in a way that makes updates simple and manageable for you.

  • Squarespace is Field Day’s platform of choice because it gives service‑based businesses a clean, reliable, and easy‑to‑manage home online. It’s built for people who want a professional presence without the tech overwhelm. The tools you need for scheduling, blogging, email, SEO, and mobile‑friendly design are already built in, which means fewer moving parts and fewer surprise costs.

    Most importantly, Squarespace makes handoff simple. When your site launches, you’re able to update text, swap photos, add pages, and manage your content without needing a designer every time. You get a site that looks polished, works beautifully, and stays manageable long after our project ends.

    Applicable Taxes

    • After our first call, you’ll receive a clear, accurate quote so you can anticipate the full project investment

  • Here’s two ways you can save:

    Signing Bonus Rate: A pay‑in‑full discount is available at the start of your project as a thank‑you for simplifying the process and accelerating momentum.

    Off‑Season Rate: If your project doesn’t need to kick off right away, you can opt into a flexible start date and receive a discounted rate. This keeps my workload steady and gives you a break on pricing — a little teamwork that benefits us both. All required materials must be submitted upfront to add you to the waitlist, but a deposit isn’t due until a start date is established.

  • If you need features beyond what’s included in your package, you can easily expand your project with add‑on services. I offer discounted rates for enhancements like additional graphics, extra pages, or social media profile assets.

Templates typically range from $200–$800 and are an additional cost paid directly through your Squarespace account.

    5. Kickoff Call

    We meet for a focused 30-45 minute call to confirm your content, branding, and template selection so the restyle process is smooth and aligned.
