Vincent de Paul - Mt Vernon, OH

Express Sites and Feedback

Good afternoon Greg,

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today.

My project manager created a spreadsheet that allows you to see our express site options.  The really great option we included is including some parishes that have utilized the express site format which allows you to see how incorporating your branding, colors, fonts, and content transforms the site into a unique showpiece.  There are a couple of options that are not quite live websites, but I included the mockup for you to view.

I think the best route to take is the hybrid style of our process we discussed.  You and Father can review the sites and provide feedback.  Also, you can let me know which option might be the best fit for your parish.  Feel free to also include websites you liked along with what you like about that particular website.  My team will then be able to review this information and we can schedule our Deep Dive conversation via Zoom to finalize the design idea.



Let me know if you have any questions

Thank you!

Good afternoon Greg,

I hope all is well.

It's been a few weeks since our discussion regarding our process for a new website.  I wanted to follow up with the spreadsheet I sent over, and schedule a discussion to find out if one of those would work for you.  Would there be a day that works best for you?

If you have any questions, or if you need further information don't hesitate to let me know.  

Thank you!

  3. Who is the target audience for the new website?

  4. What goals do you have for the new website?

  6. Is there an idea for the budget for the new website?
  7. Will we be creating a logo for you, or polishing an existing logo?
  8. You mentioned you are currently using GoDaddy for your domain hosting.  Would you be wanting to transfer the domain to Diocesan?

Alan,

Good afternoon. I spoke with Mark on Friday, and he said you could send me the quote no later than today. Once I look it over, I had a few additional questions for you.

Greg
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Hi Greg,

Thank you for reaching out.

I spoke with Mark and I have all of the information to send out your proposal.  If it is not in your mailbox now, it should be there momentarily.  There were 3 attachments, so sometimes it can take several minutes for it to be delivered.

In your voicemail, you asked about my office availability.  I will be in the office for the rest of today and all day tomorrow.  After tomorrow I will be out of the office until Monday, January 4th.

Thank you!

Please cancel the mtg with Veronica on Wed. The monthly web hosting fee is minimal, and this will also ensure that people have full access to our website while we finalize our new site.

Good morning Alan.
Will the $300/yr hosting fee stay the same from yr to year? Is it locked in for a couple years or will it increase the 2nd year?
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Good morning Greg,

The $300 website hosting and $15 domain hosting will be the same year after year.  We don't do "introductory pricing" or increase after the first year.

Thank you!

Alan,

Our domain for the parish is about to expire with GoDaddy. If we renewed with you, could we retain our same address, https://st-vincentdepaul.org/? If so, how would that work?
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Hi Greg,

If you wanted to move your domain into our hosting package, you can definitely do that.  The domain is yours, so you are able to move it from host to host.

When you are ready to move forward with the transfer, we will send you a document that lets you know what information we need to make the transfer happen.

Thank you!

FROM THE CLIENT Greg Henkel, Vincent de Paul - Mt Vernon, OH Staff
Mark/Alan,

Attached is the signed web development contract.
Mark, is there a separate bulletin contract we have to sign?
Alan, just a reminder that our domain name renews Jan 9, 2021 with GoDaddy. Please switch that over to Diocesan so it doesn't auto renew with GoDaddy.
Merry Christmas to all, and we look forward to working with you all next year.

Greg
