Pricing questions
Your questions, answered.
Use these answers to plan your budget. Your proposal will confirm the exact scope, payment schedule, and responsibilities.
01 · Are these fixed prices?
These are starting prices and planning ranges. Your quote depends on the agreed scope, content, integrations, and timing, and is confirmed in a proposal before work begins.
02 · When is a paid review useful?
A review is useful when you know something is underperforming but are unsure why. It helps you decide what to fix before committing to a full redesign or build.
03 · What changes the investment most?
The amount of content, number of user journeys, custom integrations, data migration, approval process, and delivery deadline have the biggest effect on scope and cost.
04 · Can an engagement be delivered in phases?
Yes. Applications and mobile products can be delivered in stages. Each stage has an agreed scope, budget, and review point so you can decide what to invest in next.
05 · How are payments scheduled?
Diagnostics are normally paid when scheduled. Focused website builds commonly use a 40% start, 30% design approval, and 30% pre-launch cadence. Product work is invoiced by agreed milestones so investment follows visible progress.
06 · Can we begin below the listed build range?
A review or a smaller, clearly defined engagement may fit. Share your budget and priorities so Van can discuss what is realistic within them.
07 · Are third-party costs included?
No unless a proposal explicitly says otherwise. Hosting, software subscriptions, payment fees, app-store accounts, licensed assets, paid media, and other vendor charges remain visible and separate.
08 · Who leads and delivers the work?
Van leads your project from planning through delivery. If specialist support is needed, you will know who is involved and what they are responsible for.
09 · What if the project is not the right fit?
Van will explain if the project needs a different approach or specialist. Sending an inquiry does not commit you to an engagement.
10 · What happens after an inquiry?
Van reviews your inquiry and responds personally within two business days. He may ask a follow-up question, suggest a conversation, or recommend a useful first step.
11 · How is success defined?
We agree on what the project needs to achieve and how to review it. Measures may include completed customer tasks, inquiry quality, time spent on a process, or technical performance, depending on the information available.
