Here are some questions that come up regularily. If your question isn't answered here, then shoot me an email!
How much do you charge?

Business Card design - $350 (+ cost of printing)
Web site design -
+/- $1500.00 (depending on complexity)
(These prices are based on certain time and design constraints. We reserve the right to adjust prices based on your actual project expectations.)
Where should I buy my domain name?
I recommend getting a domain name through Doteasy.com. They start at US$25/year which may seem like more than other companies, but they also offer $0 web site hosting which may be a viable option for your site. That is, you may only have to spend $25/year for both domain name + hosting. Check out a comparison here.
How about web site hosting? Where should I do that?
If you are starting from the ground up, I also suggest (and personally use) Doteasy.com.
I want you to design my logo! What's the first step?
Download my logo design questionnaire (Word Doc), answer the questions, then email back to me. Download the Logo Design Questionnaire here.
I want you to make my web site! What's the first step?
I've got a questionnaire for web design too. This information will give me a better idea of the size and scope of what you are after. From there I can quote your project. Download the Web Design Questionnaire here.
Is having a logo or brand identity really necessary?
Your logo is the foundation of your business. It communicates volumes to your clients, telling them that you take your work seriously and can be trusted. It is essential that your marketing material (including business cards and web site) reflect your logo, its colours, style and tone. Consistency is key in projecting a professional image to your clients.
Can you make things besides logos, biz cards and web sites?
Absolutely. Promo flyers, brochures, wedding invitations, DVD covers, and whatever else you can think of. Email me for more info.
How the heck do I pronounce your name??
It's pronounced "Cake-oh". Like "Cake" (mmmmmm, cake) with an "oh" on the end.
I detect an accent...where are you from?
I'm from Trinidad and what I miss most is mango season, "doubles" for breakfast and "shark and bake" at the beach (with ketchup and shaddow benny sauce, of course. I'm drooling!!!).
