We love to work with international companies and with people from all around the world. Digital technology means that we are increasingly able to cross borders and work seamlessly with overseas clients.
- We like to meet potential clients to understand their needs, so we normally start with an hour's initial meeting. This could be either at our office in Bristol in the UK (with no charge to you) or in your office (with the cost of travel, accommodation etc. being paid by you). We are also happy to use Teams, Zoom or Skype to have a video conference call. Just let us know what method you prefer!
- We can then create initial outline estimates (including a timescale) if you wish to take things further - we don't make a charge for these, and expect to turn them around in 7-10 days in most cases.
- You can then decide whether you want to have more detailed estimates, after clarifying which options you want to include (we normally make a small charge of £350 for a detailed specification document, refundable against the work if that is proceeded with).
- Should GWS be instructed to do the work then we will provide accompanying paperwork, including a formal contract and an invoice for the initial payment. We normally work with a 40% advance, followed by 20% / 20% / 20% staged payments, but can also offer an option of payment by standing order (subject to status).
- We keep in touch in the course of the contract with progress reports and with any requests for feedback or information / assets. We can assist with copywriting and photography where needed, and provide training once your project is ready to launch.
- We also offer maintenance and support contracts at a reduced rate, and online marketing services where that is appropriate for you.
- Our care for the client does not end once a project is completed - we have worked for many companies for more than 10 years on a series of projects, and our very first client was with us for 19 years.
We look forward to discussing your requirements and seeing whether we can help. Our team speaks French, Spanish and Polish and we also have reasonable German, which helps with multilingual projects.
