Hyphenated People Prix Fixe

Over at Hyphenated People, we've been spending the summer cooking up something new: a fixed-price deal. Fun and challenging for us, and affordable for you.

For a flat rate, you can choose either:

• The Inspector. In which we explore and analyze your entire application[1] and deliver to you a fancy report including a written analysis (including callouts and sketches) and suggestions for improvement. Topics considered include application structure, flow, individual screens' usability and layout, insights about targeted users, and aesthetics (aka "the pretty").

• The Drive-By Design. In which we explore your application, and thence, with that knowledge, take any single, full page of your choosing and redesign it from the ground up to be more effective. In this case we deliver to you a fully-realized design, original design source files (PSDs) and a written explanation of our recommendations for that page and its situation in the entire application.

Either package is ideal for smaller companies and startups, and anyone who is having a difficult time loosening the purse strings for hiring usability consultants for a long-term project.

There's no further obligation. Our reports and advice are yours. We will happily make ourselves available for further assistance (availability permitting), but you can implement our suggestions any way you want, and with whomever you want.

That Price, Which is Fixed

The price for either package is just $3,500 USD. If you'd like further details, drop us a line at yo@hyphenateme.com with your preferred method of contact and we'll give you a prompt return call or email.

Write us now. You know you want to.

Nota bene: We're only budgeting the time for a few of these projects this summer. It'd be a clever marketing tactic to make that up and then urge you to contact us now if not sooner, but it's actually true. This is something we'll be doing in addition to our normal, larger jobs. We will of course deliver our very best (as we always do), but this is an experiment for us from a business standpoint.
