Design Agency Hiring Guide
What is a design agency?
A design agency is an agency that creates visual and conceptual solutions for clients across various industries. It offers expertise in graphic design, branding, web design, product design, and user experience (UX)/user interface (UI) design.
Design agencies collaborate with clients to understand their objectives, target audience, and brand identity. They concentrate on how brands, products, and services look and improve the appeal of their client's products. They have a team of skilled designers and strategists to deliver high-quality, customized design solutions, such as logos, website design, or product packaging.
What services do design agencies provide?
Design agencies provide a range of services focused on creating and improving the visual and functional aspects of a brand or product. They specialize in graphic design, branding, and identity development, ensuring that a company's visual presentation is cohesive and appealing. They often provide web design and development, creating user-friendly and beautifully looking websites.
Design agencies might also offer packaging design, advertising, and product design services. These ensure that every aspect of a company's identity is strategically developed and communicates the desired message and values to the target audience.
The primary services of design agencies include:
- Branding and identity development: Design agencies create a robust and recognizable brand identity that makes your business stand out from the competition. Services may include logo design, brand guidelines, and color palette development.
- Web design and development: A good design can create a beautiful and user-friendly website for your business. Services may include website design, web development, content management system (CMS) integration, eCommerce solutions, responsive web design, and more.
- Motion graphics and animation: Design firms can create engaging video content for your website or social media channels. Services may include 2D and 3D animation, explainer videos, whiteboard animations, and more.
- Print design: Design companies can also help you with your print design needs, including business cards, flyers, marketing collateral, and product packaging. Services may include graphic design, layout, and printing.
- Advertising and marketing: These companies can develop targeted advertising and marketing campaigns and help you achieve your business goals. Services may include print ads, online ads, email marketing, direct mail, and more.
Other services design companies typically offer include:
- User experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design
- Product design
- Packaging design
- Digital and multimedia design
- Environmental and spatial design
- Illustration
- Photography and videography
- Content creation and copywriting
- Strategy and consulting
- And more
What's the difference between a design studio and a design agency?
The difference between a design studio and a design agency is their size, team extent, and scope of services. A design studio is usually smaller, and it focuses on specialized design areas. Meanwhile, a design agency is larger and provides a broader range of services.
For example, a design studio:
- Often consists of a single designer or a small team
- Specializes in specific design areas
- Caters to smaller clients with personalized experiences
- Offers more flexible pricing due to smaller scale
On the other hand, a design agency:
- Has a large team, often including designers, strategists, project managers, and sometimes even marketers and developers
- Offers a wider range of services for comprehensive campaigns
- Serves bigger clients with comprehensive campaigns
- Has higher pricing, reflecting its extensive expertise and resources
The choice between a design studio and a design agency depends on the project's scale and requirements.
How do design companies charge?
Design companies charge based on their expertise and reputation, the project's scope and complexity, operational costs, market demand, and geographical location. Additionally, specialized skills, deadlines, and the level of customization also influence pricing. Their pricing models include hourly rates, fixed prices, retainers, project-based, value-based, and royalties.
Given the diverse nature of design, costs can differ significantly. Average project costs for the five most common types of design are:
- Logo design: from $300 to $2000 [Review42].
- Web design: from $12,000 to $150,000 [Web FX]
- Graphic design: from $15 to $150 per hour, depending on experience level. The average cost is $31.25 per hour [Eksposure]
- Brand strategy & consultation: from $11,000 to $70,000 [DesignRush]
- Product packaging design: from $10,000 to $50,000 [DesignBro]
The top 50 web design agencies on DesignRush charge an average of $99/hour. Roughly 14.3% of the web design agencies on DesignRush accept projects with a minimum budget of $1,000, while only 1.9% require a $50,000+ minimum budget.
Why should you hire a design company?
There are many reasons to hire design companies, but, ultimately, it comes down to results. A good design agency will have a team of highly skilled and experienced designers who can help you achieve your business goals. It also has the tools and resources to handle projects of any size and scope.
When you partner with a specialized agency, you can expect:
- The right design strategies: Design agencies specialize in creating compelling designs and strategies that attract and retain your target audience. They guide you in implementing these strategies effectively, enhancing your brand's appeal.
- Brand audits: Regular brand audits are crucial for assessing whether your brand resonates with the intended audience and if the colors and logo align with your identity. Design agencies conduct thorough audits and measure the effectiveness of campaigns to ensure your brand is on track.
- Brand consistency: Design agencies maintain brand consistency across all platforms and touchpoints. They create and apply consistent use of color schemes, typography, and design elements, which helps in making your brand more recognizable and trustworthy in the eyes of your audience.
- Innovative ideas: Being deeply involved in your business can sometimes limit your perspective. Design agencies offer fresh, external viewpoints and innovative ideas to modernize your brand and target the right clientele.
- The future-proof your brand: Design companies help in building a resilient brand that stays relevant and grows with changing trends, ensuring it doesn't become outdated or lose its appeal to customers.

What do you look for when choosing a design agency?
When choosing a design agency, look at its past work, expertise, and client feedback: Its portfolio shows its design style, skills, and relevant expertise, while client reviews reveal its reliability and professionalism. Effective communication, transparent pricing, and a strategic approach are also the foundation for a successful collaboration.
Following these steps will help you choose the best design agency for your needs:
- Clearly outline the specific design services you require, such as branding, web design, UX/UI, or illustration. Decide whether you need comprehensive design solutions or help with specific tasks.
- Examine the agency's past projects, especially those related to your industry or specific design challenges.
- Ask for detailed case studies or performance metrics that demonstrate its design proficiency.
- Check its ratings on platforms like Google and DesignRush. Get testimonials or references from past clients to gauge its reliability, professionalism, and creativity.
- Ensure designers have relevant qualifications, certifications, and continuous training in the latest design trends and tools.
- Confirm it uses up-to-date design software and platforms, ensuring efficiency and innovation.
- Ask about design and information confidentiality measures. If the agency handles user data for web or app designs, ensure it adheres to global data protection regulations.
- Understand its design process, from initial brainstorming to final delivery, and how the agency incorporates feedback.
- Determine how it addresses unexpected design challenges or changes in project scope.
- Ensure it follows design best practices and standards.
- Understand its pricing structure, whether it's fixed, hourly, or value-based. Clarify any additional costs for specialized services and revisions.
- Ask about its preferred tools for project management, collaboration, and feedback.
- Schedule meetings to gauge the agency’s work culture and values.
- Shortlist design agencies that align with your needs and send them a request for proposal (RFP). After you get proposals, compare agencies' expertise, offerings, and pricing to make an informed decision.
- Discuss all collaboration terms, including deadlines, deliverables, revisions, copyrights, and contract duration.
