Choosing Clients, Pricing, Project Priorities, And More

September 8, 2015 Jennifer Bourn

School has started, and the influx of autumn projects from business owners itching to get projects done (or at least started) by year’s end has kicked off with a bang. It’s hard to believe there are just a few more months left in 2015!

Not only does autumn bring a steady stream of new projects, but it also brings a steady flow of new interviews and shop talk.

Today my a blog Q&A interview for WPeka is live! Along with some standards like “what plugins do you recommend,” the WPeka team asked new questions that you normally don’t get in a WordPress interview. It was awesome because who wants to hear about the same old stuff!?

Here are a few of the questions I answered:

  • A change in your college major proved to be instrumental in starting your journey as a designer. Tell us more about it.
  • How do you handle a Catch-22 when clients do not know what they know what they want? What are your pet projects — small local businesses or giant conglomerates?
  • What is your pricing strategy — based on plans or hours?
  • What are your top priorities during a project’s design and development phase?
  • Genesis is the basic theme for all your websites. Why does the Genesis Framework have an edge over its competitors?

I hope you’ll check out my interview and while you’re there, be sure to check out a few other great Q&A interviews with my friends Chris Lema, Syed Balkhi, and Tom McFarlin.
