If you are confused with something ("Is that option included? What isthe delivery time?" etc),
ASK
! Sometimes even friends and relativessee things differently. So it is better to ask and to be sure that youand your provider get everything right and in the same manner.
Communication
•
DOUBLE
check your email address which you specify in the orderform.
•
Make sure that your anti-spam filters and email servers are not toooverzealous and allow the provider's emails reach you.
•
It depends on the PSD-to-HTML company but usually they send youan order confirmation (as well as your login and password to accessa client zone on their website). If you don't receive such an emailduring several minutes, contact them through the order form or livechat -- the reason may be a misprint in your email address.
•
Just in case give the provider's team an alternative communicationchannel (mobile telephone number, instant messenger ID (
Skype,MSN, ICQ
), etc).
•
If time is crucial for you, specify the provider's time zone.
If there are any doubts
•
If it is your first PSD-to-HTML project or you select a company forlong-term cooperation, start from a relatively small pilot project totest the waters.
•
Check the provider's Returns Policy, e.g., whether they provide amoney-back guarantee.
•
If it is important for you, don't hesitate to ask for NDA (non-disclosure agreement).
•
Specify whether they offer after-sale support and what it means. If the provider is confident of their work, usually the technical supportis free.
Change management
•
A small addition to .psd designs may lead to large modifications inxHTML/CSS code. If the process of PSD-to-HTML conversion is inprogress or finished and you change your design, be objective whileestimating changes to be made in the markup.
•
Small changes are usually free.
•
But if changes are large then it is like an additional page in yourorder and should be paid accordingly (note: usually prices onsecondary pages are up to 50% discounted).
