• You can place an order via phone or email. You may call our number +1 (713) 804-6588, fill out the Contact Us forms. You can also send us a direct email to nordicgraphicstx@gmail.com. We will need to gather a few basic pieces of information from you. Your business name, whether you have a logotype or you will be needing one, and the basic contact information we will use to go over the project with you. Then, we can discuss what type of product or service you need from us and we go from there!

• After receiving your quote, and once you have reviewed some of the product specs with our project manager, quantities (if any), and artwork fees - we will send an invoice to process the order. Once the invoice is paid for the order is officially placed! At this point, we kick off the design process. Your first artwork review will arrive in your email in the next 24-48 hours - depending on the type of project.

• An artwork proof is a document that displays a visual representation of your project. Be it a new logotype, print project, vinyl wrap or sign - the colors, shapes and content involved in your project must be revised by you in order to produce a satisfactory product. All products must be revised and approved by you, and the proof allows for a practical way to show what the design looks like before going into production.

• The proof has two main purposes. The main purpose is to show you what your end product will look like. Since the artwork displayed in it is a graphic representation of your project, it may not be a photograph of the end product but it will be the best visual representation of how it will look like in real life. The secondary purpose is to keep track of your projects with us. A good history record will allow us to keep all your graphic projects consistent throughout time.

• Proofs are great in helping keep track of work done and making sure all content is accurate and revised!

• The standard amount of revisions per artwork proof is 3. This will depend largely on the type of design involved. If it's a standard print order 3 is usually enough. For logotype designs sometimes 3-5 revisions is sufficient as well. Nevertheless, sometimes clients add products to their orders after seeing the first proofs, and ideally each additional product will include 1 revision per item. So, in short - each product proof includes one (1) revision and up to two (2) additional revisions for corrections and editing until the product is satisfactory and approved for production.

• Sometimes clients have new print projects in mind that would entail further graphic design work. That may include one or several revisions until done right. That's also why each project has an artwork proof associated with it. It is only in the cases where artwork revisions take more than the average amount of time for the same type of project that higher artwork fees would apply.

• Usually, the project manager will let you know how many revisions will be included in your order.

• Since our products are custom print items, and putting together designs and artworks takes time, it is customary in the print & sign industry to bill clients prior to starting graphic work on their projects. This ensures that the time spent by our professional graphic designers and the cost of materials is covered even if the client never picks up the custom-made item. Custom prints, signs, vehicle wraps, and websites are all billed ahead of project kick-off.

• The items may be billed separately or in parts when projects involve longer times of development. Projects such as channel letters, building signage, tradeshow booths with event participation logistics, and all consulting time are billable in accordance with service contracts established with the client.
