Our Process
Our 5 crucial steps to a Successful Project Completion
Initial Consultation
The first step in our process is an initial consultation with the client. This is where the team gets a feel for the client's brand, vision, and goals. The client will typically choose from the Basic, Standard, or Premium package, each providing varying levels of service. This step lays the foundation for the entire project and sets the stage for the design process.
Research and Conceptualisation
Once the team has a clear understanding of the client's needs, the next step is in-depth research. This includes studying the client's industry, target audience, and competitors. Using this information, the team will conceptualise logo and brand identity ideas that align with the client's vision and stand out in the market.
Design and Development
Armed with a solid understanding of the client's needs and a conceptual framework, the design team will start creating the client's logo and brand identity. Basic package clients will receive a single design concept, whereas Standard and Premium clients will receive multiple concepts to choose from.
Presentation and Revisions
Mains Media then presents the design(s) to the client. The client provides feedback, and revisions are made accordingly. The Basic package includes three revisions whilst the Standard and Premium packages include four revisions. The goal is to fine-tune the design until the client is fully satisfied with the final product.
Final Delivery
Upon approval of the design, we prepare the final files for delivery. These include vector files, which can be resized without losing quality, and a 'brand guideline document' that includes the logo, colour codes, and typefaces used. The delivery is done digitally, ensuring a quick turnaround time.

Frequently asked questions
What is Mains Media?
Mains Media is a media company born out of a passion for all things Graphic Design. We embody the concept of 'less is more' through our minimalistic design philosophy, our affordable costs, and our swift project turnaround. However, it's important to note that while our approach is minimal, our dedication, effort, and commitment to delivering top-tier quality and service to our clients are anything but.
What are the differences between the Basic, Standard, and Premium packages?
Please see the Brand Identity and Website pricing tables in the Packages section for a full breakdown of the differences between the packages we offer.
How long does the design process typically take?
The duration varies for each project, but on average, the Basic package takes around 1 week, the Standard package takes around 1-2 weeks, and the Premium package takes around 2-3 weeks. Any add-ons will increase the turnaround time for the project.
What if I need my design sooner?
We offer expedited services for an additional fee. Please contact our team to discuss your timeline and we'll do our best to accommodate your needs.
Can I upgrade my package midway through the project?
Certainly! You can upgrade your package at any time during the project. However, differences such as cost and turnaround between the packages will apply.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the designs?
Depending on the package chosen we offer 3-4 revisions on the initial design. These revisions are based on your feedback to ensure the final design meets your expectations.
Do you provide ongoing support after project completion?
Yes, we provide post-project support. If you have any questions or require minor tweaks to your designs, we are here to help.
Why do you take a 75% deposit upfront?
At Mains Media, we require a 75% deposit upfront to align with industry standards, boost our working capital, and ensure client commitment to the project. This practice helps mitigate the risk of non-payment, maintains financial stability, and allows us to focus on delivering high-quality results while upholding our commitment to our clients.
