The first and most important point to find out is: WHY do they want a website? If it is just because it is cool, or because they know the guy down the block is doing and they feel they need to too, then they need to be smacked over the head. Do they want to offer services via the web "reserve our services by filling out this form" .... or maybe it will be more of an online brochure that can be referred to from other advertising as in "see our website for more information". Honestly, I doubt anyone looking for their services will turn to the web first to find them. They will probably turn to the phone book or newspaper advertising or something like that. So the site can't be designed as the primary selling vehicle. It should probably just play a backup role to whatever else they do to get the word out. I know you said they have no other ad materials, but I'm sure they are advertising SOMEWHERE. They would be fools to sink their money into a website without having other, more traditional avenues of advertising. So, they tease someone into an interest in their service via the phone book ... now the customer decides to look them up on the internet to see what this company is all about ... Put yourself into the shoes of the customer. What questions would you have? Prices, services, how fast are they ,,, What will you be doing for art? Will they supply you with some photos? edit: If they have no other advertising planned (which is really stupid) then maybe you can offer to hook them up with some newspaper advertising too. What the hell, ya know!? A few extra bucks for a few extra services couldn't hurt! You would be doing them a HUGE favor!
