Nope. No, we sure won’t. That is, unless you are offering to pay all of our bills for a year. 
Then we might consider it. While we’d love to be able to offer free services, be it “just a quickie” or a full-blown site, we just can’t keep a roof over our heads doing so. If you are a current or prospective client, we are happy to answer any questions you may have. But, if you’re looking to see how much friendly assistance you can get for free, please keep on truckin’.
Whether you realize it or not, what you’re asking for is called “spec work” (short for ‘speculative’) and we don’t jive with that. If you’re seeking an experienced designer with integrity, you shouldn’t jive with “spec” either. We encourage you to read more about spec work and learn why it’s the design industry equivalent of flatulence at a dinner party.
When we are able, we love to do shiny, happy things like offer donations or spread the word about an event. We can’t always accept every offer to provide a donation or sponsor an event, but it definitely can’t hurt to ask. Give us your pitch! You never know…
Depending on the availability of your designer, we can work with a modest budget. You might not be able to get everything on your website wishlist, but we can certainly try to work within your budgetary restrictions. If we cannot, we’ll tell you straight away. We’re not here to yank your charitable chain.
