The Client Worksheet

While it is easy to make the simple complicated, it takes skill to make the complex feel simple. That is Webdezign’s speciality.

We’ve put together this handy worksheet to help you capture your vision for the project. Think of this as a business plan for your website. The more information you can give us, the better we’ll be able to respond. Please answer each question in a clear and concise manner, and skip any questions that don’t pertain to your project.

Because each member of your team may have a different vision for the project, we recommend completing this worksheet as a group. That way we won’t miss any important opinions. Once you’re happy that the worksheet clearly describes your project, please submit the form to our project manager and we’ll work out the right solution for you.
