What is a typical timeline for a brand or website project?

Project timelines vary based on each client’s needs, readiness, and the scope of work involved. We have completed brand and website projects in as few as two weeks, while more comprehensive engagements have taken as long as six months. Whether you need a streamlined website build or a full brand, strategy, copywriting, imagery, and development process, we tailor each engagement to support the best possible outcome. This ensures every project receives the right level of time, strategy, and creative attention to meet our standards and your goals. Projects move most efficiently when clients provide timely, clear, and actionable feedback throughout each phase.

Will my company be able to maintain the website?

After launch, Curator provides the guidance and resources you need to confidently maintain your new website. You’ll receive a Website Maintenance Guide along with a personalized 90-minute pre-recorded tutorial to help you understand the platform and make basic updates. Most clients are able to manage smaller edits, such as updating copy, images, colours, and links, with a little time and practice, as well as adding new projects to the portfolio. Larger structural changes are best handled professionally to protect the design, functionality, and strategy of your site. For added support, Curator also offers website maintenance packages for assistance after launch.

Which web design platforms do you use?

Curator’s preferred website platform is Showit because it offers exceptional design flexibility, creative freedom, ease of use, and seamless WordPress integration. It allows us to create custom, professional websites with rich user experiences while reducing the need for costly custom coding. Clients often appreciate that Showit is intuitive to maintain, making it easier to update their websites over time without advanced technical expertise. We also design and develop websites for Squarespace, Wix, WordPress, and Shopify, depending on each client’s needs and goals, however our flat-rate page fee structure only applies to Showit web design projects.

Will my website be optimized for mobile devices?

Every Curator website is designed to deliver a polished, strategic experience across both desktop and mobile devices, particularly with Showit websites. Showit offers some of the best mobile optimization available because it gives our designers the flexibility to customize the mobile design separately. Rather than simply shrinking or rearranging the desktop design, we create a fully custom mobile version that considers how users actually browse, navigate, and take action on smaller screens. This allows us to carefully refine layouts, navigation, visual hierarchy, and calls to action so your website feels seamless, elevated, and easy to use on every device.

Will investing in a professional brand and website be worth it?

A strong brand and website are long-term marketing assets that help your business build trust, communicate value, and stand out in a competitive market. When your visual identity and online presence reflect the quality of your work, potential clients can more easily understand why your business is the right choice. A polished, strategic website can also reduce friction in the buying process by creating clarity and confidence before someone ever reaches out. For many businesses, investing in a competitive brand and website pays off through stronger inquiries, better alignment with ideal clients, and a more professional presence that provides lasting value.

Does Curator offer payment plans?

Curator offers payment plans to make our services more accessible and easier to plan for. Most projects require a non-refundable 25% deposit to reserve your place in our production calendar and officially begin the engagement. The remaining balance can typically be divided into three milestone payments, depending on the scope, timeline, and specific needs of the project. All payments must be completed before final assets are delivered, ensuring a clear and organized process from start to finish. In rare cases, custom payment schedules may be discussed before contract signing, but they must be approved in advance.

Why should I choose Curator for my brand or website project?

Curator is a Canadian design company based in Calgary, offering thoughtful, strategic brand identity and web design. Our process is highly collaborative, and we tailor the engagement to your goals, timeline, and level of support needed. One of our most meaningful differences is that we offer unlimited revisions, which is practically unheard of in the design industry and reflects our commitment to getting the work right. We combine refined creative direction with practical strategy, clear communication, and flexible project options, making Curator a strong fit for clients who want beautiful, intentional design without feeling rushed or boxed into a rigid process.
