Q & A Section (aka FAQ)
Q. Why is the company called “Family Creative?” Are you associated with Focus on the Family or the Family Research Council?
A. Choosing a company name is not an easy task. After much thought and internal wrangling, we decided that Family Creative would be a nice name. The meaning of “Family” here is not necessarily according to the traditional definition of a nuclear family of related people. Rather, it talks about a group of people as being a family. Like a small, tight-knit community. And we are really into those. It’s like “we’re all a tight family, bro!” Us and our clients and friends and communities.
Q. Can I have a job?
A. We are not currently looking to hire any full time employees; however, we are occasionally on the hunt for excellent contract workers. Contact us and send us a link to your online resume and portfolio if you are interested in possible future contract work.
Q. How much does a website/catalog/business card cost?
A. Each project is unique, thus, the costs of each project are unique. What we can say is that our services are $50 per hour (less if you are a non-profit or community organization). So if you just need us to spend a couple of hours on a poster or business card, you’re looking at about $100 or so. If you’re looking for a big, dynamic, e-commerce website, it will obviously cost more than that. Please contact us if you would like a quote on a design project.
