For UX designers
Teams want screens, and the work that matters happens before them. Sell a research half day first, the design sprint as a project with a share up front, and monthly design support for the team that ships.
What product teams ask
What does a UX designer do?
Works out how people use a product, where they struggle and why, then designs the flows and screens that fix it.
How do freelance UX designers charge?
By the project for a sprint, by the day for research, and by the month for ongoing support.
How long is a UX design sprint?
One to three weeks for a defined problem, from research to a tested prototype.
What’s different for UX designers
Research before screens
Sell a research half day as the first step, paid when it’s booked, so the problem is understood before the design is quoted.
Design support each month
A monthly offering holds design time for the team after the sprint, renewed on the company’s card.
Your page on the first day
This is the design or creative setup, and it’s what your page starts with. Change any of it where it appears.
- Clients can book from tomorrow onward.
- Moving or canceling is free up to 24 hours before.
- Before booking, your page asks: “What are we making, and by when?”
Your project agreement opens with this: Half of the project price is due up front and half on delivery. The scope is what we agreed in writing; new work is a new agreement.
What gets in the way
Clients ask for mockups in week one, before anyone has talked to a user.
A sprint ends, the team ships, and the next question comes as a favor.
Research sessions with users get scheduled across three calendars.
What it doesn’t do for you
There’s no prototyping tool, no user testing platform and no design library. Work in the tools you use now.
