Disciples of the Mission - Saint Cloud, MN

Website Proposal

Hi Dorothy,

Thank you for your patience as we worked to finalize the proposal for the community's new website. 

During the Deep Dive conversation, we were able to learn a lot about Disciples of the Mission as well as what you wanted out of the website.  As discussed, the website will be modeled after River Valley (https://www.rivervalley.org/).  Your website will be responsive and fully integrated with whatever device (desktop, laptop, small laptop, mobile phone) is being used to browse your website.  Some of the additions we will be making are a staff page, ministry landing page, ministry pages, archive pages, and sacramental pages.

There are 2 optional pieces to this project.  The first optional piece is related to migrating content into the new website.  We can do a base migration that includes the following only the homepage, a styles page, sample pages, and usability testing.

Alternatively, Diocesan's content specialists can do a full migration of any content that the parishes send over to us, including:
  • content migration from previous websites
  • any new content sent over to us
  • recreating PDFs as online fillable forms
  • creating posts from the bulletin
  • adding past homilies & recorded Masses
  • adding all staff members

The other optional piece is the logo.  We can create just the logo, or we can create a logo and branding package.  In addition to the logo, the branding package would include the following:
  • style guide
  • logo usage guidelines & samples
  • double-sided business card design
  • custom letterhead design
  • custom envelope design
  • typeface names, samples & usage
I have included a separate proposal for the logo to better see the cost break down.

Let me know if you have any questions, or if there are any aspects you would like to discuss.

Thank you!

Good morning Dorothy,

I hope all has been well since our last conversation.

It has been a couple of weeks since I sent over the proposals for the website and logo with a branding package.  Sometimes this can be somewhat of information overload, so I wanted to find out if there is anything you might need from me.  How have the discussions been going?  

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns.  If you discussing this over the phone would be better than email, let me know a time that would work for you.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you!

Good afternoon Dorothy,

I hope all is well.

At the end of July, we met and shared with you the design ideas we had for your community.  I wanted to find out how the discussions have been going related to the proposal I sent you for the new website and logo creation.

Are there any questions that have come up, or any additional information I can go over for you?  Let me know how I can help.

Thank you!

Good afternoon Dorothy,

I hope everything has been going well.

Last month I sent over a proposal for the mission's new website.  I haven't heard back yet, so I wanted to find out if there is anything I can do to help.  If you would like to schedule a call to go over any questions or concerns, let me know when you would be available.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you!

Good afternoon Dorothy,

I hope everything went well during the holiday season, and that 2021 has gotten off to a great start.

Back in August, we met to discuss design ideas for your new website.  I sent over a proposal for the website creation, as well as a proposal for a logo and branding package.  Since it has been a few months, I was hoping we could reconnect.  We can discuss the proposals as well as any questions you have.

Let me know a day and time that works best, and I can send over the Zoom details.

Thank you!

Good morning Dorothy,

I hope everything has been going well.

I was hoping we could schedule a phone conversation to go over the website project and proposal I sent over.  Would you have a few minutes Monday or Tuesday to go over the project?

Let me know your availability, and we set up a conversation.

Thank you!

Good morning Dorothy,

I hope you had a great Easter.

Last summer we met to discuss a new website for the Disciples of the Mission.  During our Deep Dive conversation, we shared design ideas with you and then I was able to create a proposal for you.

Since we were last able to meet, how are the conversations going related to a new website?  What questions have come up regarding the proposal I sent for you to review?  

If you would rather schedule a phone conversation versus email, let me know when you would be available.  

Thank you!

Hi Alan,
Thank you for the email. As I explained last summer, the whole purpose of reaching out to your business was to get an estimate as to the cost of Web design. At this time our ACC is focusing on other technological updates that better serve our needs as we traverse the pandemic.
I am not sure when our attention will be focused on our website.
Thank you again for your time and consideration.

TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Hi Dorothy,

Thank you very much for the update.

I will definitely keep your proposal open so if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Knowing that there are no questions currently regarding the proposal, I will follow up a little less frequently.  I will periodically check-in to see how you and the website project are doing.

Thank you!
