Discovery

A few questions
before we talk.

Thanks for this — it's going to be a fun one. Before our call, a handful of questions to get the practical things out of the way, so we can spend the 45 minutes on the parts that actually matter.

Don't overthink it. Bullet points and half-formed thoughts are perfect — the conversation is where we go deep. About fifteen minutes.

01 — The essentials

The shape of the thing.

Quick facts. Some of this we can already see — tell us where it's heading too.

Etsy, markets, shops — name them.
Upload it. The rougher the better; it tells us where you started.
02 — The business and the why

Where it comes from.

Just open the door here — we'll walk through it properly on the call.

03 — Who it's for

The person on the other end.

The clearer the picture, the sharper the brand can be.

04 — The field

Who else is out there.

This is the homework that's painful to do live — so we'll bank it now.

"Modern and traditional" is too broad to brief a team on. We need the why.
05 — Personality and the paradox

How it should feel.

The heart of it. Keep the answers loose — we go deeper together.

The authentic specifics, not "Chinese" in general. Tick as many as ring true.
Dragons, takeaway red-and-gold, "oriental" — draw your own no-go list.
TraditionalModern
06 — Practical guardrails

The real-world constraints.

Fast — but this saves us genuine time.

So we design for the surface that earns money soonest. Tick all that apply.
Genuinely shapes what we can design.
Done

That's everything.

This goes straight to the studio and becomes the spine of the brief. We'll dig into the interesting parts on the call — bring opinions.

Received

Thank you, Jonathan.

We've got it. Speak soon — and come to the call with the half-thoughts you didn't write down. Those are usually the good ones.
