Studio II prides itself on being as open as possible with our clients, our design process from beginning to end is broken down into the following three steps.
A crucial part to a successful project is knowing the design needs of our clients in depth. That's why we like to have at least two calls with our clients before any project starts.
The first to learn about you and your business as well as give you the chance to tell us about the problems your business is facing.
The second is where we show you how we can help and give a detailed look into the services we can provide. This includes cost, timeline and which of our team will be working with you.
Studio II is formed of a group of talented designers that have their own specialities. Now we know about the challenges your business faces and have a clear direction of what outcomes are needed - it's easy to identify which of our team can help.
From there our designers get to work on producing the deliverables set out in step one. We'll also keep you updated with the progress we are making with regular calls.
Depending on the project these calls can be weekly, bi-weekly or monthly.
The most exciting part for you - seeing the end result!
We'll have a final call with you to showcase the deliverables and answer any questions you may have. This helps us give clear directions on how the outcomes should be used in order to benefit your business the most.
After the end of a project we like to arrange a time to get back in touch with you, usually a month after the project. This is simply to make sure that the deliverables are having the intended effect and if there's anything else Studio II can do to help.

Studio II are passionate about passing on our knowledge to the next generation of designers, many design courses in further and higher education don’t usually cover working for yourself and everything that is involved such as promoting yourself, finding clients and closing that first project. Studio II aim to cover all these aspects and more in our curated design course.
"How do I start getting my own clients?" One of the biggest questions a creative student starts asking during their studies - and yet it's rarely addressed in detail. This is where Studio II's design course begins.
We show students lead generation methods used by design freelancers and studios and even show how Studio II uses some of these methods. Getting the lead is only half the battle however, we need to also teach the students how to conduct a sales call to gain that client.
The natural next question that will be asked is "How do I price my work?" We'll take students through each direction of pricing work and give recommendations on which method works best in different scenarios.
This section will also cover examples from Studio II's own work and how we tackled the pricing of those projects.
A majority of creative students don't get their first clients until their final year in University and it's our aim to change that. With this design course we want to give students the knowledge to not only gain their first client, but then also use that as a platform to get their next one.
