New business design package…
I have put together a 'Design pack' to help start your new business. Since starting my own business back in 2005 I have helped over a dozen new businesses with branding, stationery and website requirements. 4 Corners Design has put together a special price list together for you, but please note that the printing prices of stationery and domain name registration and hosting may be subject to change without warning. Please call me, Chris Birks, on 01925 570005 for an up-to-date free estimate and don't forget to take advantage of the £100 E-Voucher which can be used towards some of your design costs.



Design pack…
The price list below not only gives a guide to the costs involved but also details timescales of production. I am used to working to tight deadlines and can turn projects as quickly as possible.

Logo design:
4 Corners Design will create up to 6 unique design ideas for you to choose from. The ideas will be presented in a black and white format so as not to sway you decision in terms of a not liking a particular colour and discounting the design. A maximum of 2 designs can then be taken forward to develop into colour and amend typeface style if necessary. Once the final design has been chosen 4 Corners Design will provide you with a CD with the logo in both colour and black and white in a jpg, tif and eps formats. Once the work has been paid for, you are free to use the logo as much as you like.

Price:
£500 + VAT

Timescale:
10 working days

Business stationery:
Most businesses require a minimum of letterhead and a business card. Legally if you are a limited company, you will require a letterhead with your company registration number and registered address and if applicable a VAT number. You may also want to have some compliment slips depending on the type of business you have.

There are two stages in producing the stationery you require. The artwork set up and the printing of the stationery. There are number of different types of printing that can be used to print your stationery – the most common being Litho and Digital printing.

Litho printing offers a superior quality in terms of print and colour. With the setup of the printing machine the costs are more expensive and the recommended printed is a minimum of 500 copies of letterheads, compliments slips and business cards.

Digital printing offers greater flexibility in terms of quantity and small print runs. Whilst digital printing is getting better all the time and to the untrained eye, it can be hard to tell the difference between the two printing techniques. In my humble opinion the quality and where there is a large area of single colour Litho printing wins hands down.

If a logo has been designed in 2 colour, then having your stationery printed using the Pantone colour system may be a viable option. Again there is a minimum print run of 500 copies of each piece of stationery.

The costs are as follows:

Price:
Artwork:
£90 + VAT per piece of business stationery (letterhead, compliment slip and single-sided business card, double sided card – price on request)
(includes up to 2 design to choose from, all pdfs for approval and up to 2 sets of amendments – further amendments are charged £35 per hour thereafter)

Printing:
To print your stationery digitally or using the Pantone system, prices are available on request.

Qty: 500 letterheads, compliments slips and business printed in 4 colour one side only

I would recommend to anybody starting off in business to have a website. It is the only form of marketing that can be accessed by anyboy or business 24/7.
