This is great! Mega-congrats on the launch team Design, Inc. I often find myself using design marketplaces, like 99d, for brand identity but wishing I had my hands on something that took a lot of leg work out of finding great/vetted designers who love what they do & respect the process.
Great timing. We're looking to dramatically improve my wife's brand identity. We may run in this direction sometime in the next couple of months! Looking forward to seeing this evolve.
Best of luck with the launch!
@xmcgraw David! great to see you again sir! Really excited to hear your feedback, please reach out if there is any questions you may have!

congrats on the launch @hemeon! have you thought about adding some sort of design feedback loop? personally, i'd be a lot more inclined to pay the $16.5K if i wasn't just paired with a designer, but if the work he or she comes up with also receives feedback/suggestions/tweaks from multiple designers on your service. so that when it comes back to me as a client i'm mentally assured that the logo, brand, and identity are the best they possibly can be given the multiple perspectives gone into it and not just the subjective opinion of 1 designer
@arjunkmehta So whats interesting here is we have built a community behind the scenes for the designers on design inc. they share work with each other, get feedback privately form one another and really support one another. For me, I charge around $8k for a logo with a usage and branding guide and all the corresponding social media and marketing assets - I've done quite a bit of branding work for the last 20 years and I can say with confidence wether you hire me or someone else on the platform you will get every pennies worth of value that you invest on Design Inc. / Design can truly be make a huge difference in your product or service
Hey congrats on the relaunch @hemeon (+ @zinssmeister, @mkadenbach et al)! Everything looking super great.
Now that I'm full-time freelance I'm looking forward to seeing the services expand from here. Plans to push out into more product / project based chunks or is that too big for the commodity focus you've got going on?
@buckwilson@zinssmeister@mkadenbach we have a strategy to chunk up product design - its the one feature we think is going to really set this platform apart - more soon.

This is great! We've needed a service that makes thoughtful design-driven critiques easily accessible for customers. What an exciting step forward! I'm looking forward to contributing to the community through it! Congrats, @hemeon!
@cdavis565 Here! here! We have tons of design services we want to build out - for example things like "visual design and style guide from wireframes" or "product design audit" and of course more classic services like Illustration, pitch decks, content market etc.
@krispuckett@hemon grateful to have you Kris! you are an active and important part of our community!

Had the pleasure of meeting Marc and Joshua when they held open office hours in San Francisco last spring and the design and product feedback they gave me was invaluable. Affordable, quality design is something that even small, stingy, bootstrapping startups cannot skip and your new service could be a great solution. I do wish that you had included prices (or a range of prices) for the various packages and options (or maybe you did and I missed them?)
Anyway, best of luck! Looks like a great service!
@hagit Hi Hagit!!! really great hearing from you again! glad you found us again - so go to Desinginc.com > then select Design Critiues > then Pair with Designer give that a try and then you will see a bunch of designers who are offering that service and their prices - hope that helps!
Super excited to be an early member of Design Inc. Great early product and I'm looking forward to seeing it develop and evolve from here. Congrats @hemeon!
