Four Step Design Process

1. Discover
I'll use a starter document to collect your brand details, colours, and logos. A Trello board is used for project management.

2. Design
A wireframe is made to meet your needs. Next, a mock-up shows the final product.

3. Develop
The website comes with built-in SEO. I will add custom components and test them on different browsers.

4. Deploy
You get a preview link to review the site. Once you're ready, the site goes live. Then, you can announce it on social media.
