So you already got started. By this point, you should know what to ask to us and what to expect from us. Then, it's time to formalize the business relationship. The ingredients to become a satisfied site's owner are pretty simple. We know the mix. Keep on reading.

So far, everything has been done with no obligation for you. Now it's time to consolidate the business relationship. We'll simply ask you if you want to contract the project with us. Now, a few simple steps have to be taken to start the web site development.
- In order to have all pertinent information about your company and person(s) that will be in contact with us during the project development, you'll be asked to submit our Customer Basic Information Online Form, form that you will fill and send using your favorite browser. This information will ensure that we have the right data about you and your company. Rest assured that we never share or release this information without your written approval.

- It's been established that almost all communications and data sharing between you and us are conducted via e-mail, which ensures that everything has a written documentation. More details about coded correspondence are in this tutorial.
- A welcome message will be sent –upon arrival of your submitted form– containing the assigned project code (if you hasn't received it yet) which will identify the project at all instances: correspondence, contract, invoicing, archive, project schedule and production sheet; name(s), e-mail(s) and phones of the person(s) in charge of your project at GraphicBiz; and some easy instructions to follow regarding project correspondence. It will also contain an outline of the information both parties have shared so far.
- You will be asked a few more questions about your personal and/or business goals and product(s) and/or service(s), via e-mail. We also will list the features your site should carry. We'll analize your response and will produce an internal project draft based on your released information, requirements and expectancies, plus the data gathered from our research –mentioned in part one–. Finally, an ante-project will blossom. We'll email you detailing our ideas –and probably inviting you to check a demo!–, proposing ourselves as your Information Design and Web Builder provider. If necessary, a quote will be included.
- If everything goes ok, a contract will be issued to be signed by both parties. It will contain and explain all legalities to protect both firms, and will detail all about what you're contracting and what we're going to build. You're on your way to own your web site!
- A project schedule is set. Also, within the next 72 hours after the contract is signed, a corporate home page is published, establishing your firm online, allowing web presence while the project is being developed.

The development has started. We'll keep a close and constant contact with you to ensure that the final product will respond not only to the established criteria, but to the new discoveries and requirements that usually pop up along the way.
A web site is about to be born.
