How to outsource web design?

Outsourcing web design isn’t just about hiring a team and handing over a brief. It’s about knowing what you want and being ready to co-create it.

Sounds simple, right? 

But here’s what we’ve seen more than once:

• Great design teams join the project. Processes are smooth. But... the client isn’t clear on goals.
• The brief keeps changing.
• The feedback loop drags on.
• And suddenly, a 6-week project turns into 6 months, not because of bad work, but because no one set the foundation.

Before you outsource, here’s what you might want to check:

• Are your goals aligned with business outcomes - not just “we want it to look modern”?
• Do you know your users - what frustrates them, what they expect, what they ignore?
• Have you mapped out what success actually means (hint: it's rarely just “launching the site”)?

The best outsourcing outcomes aren’t about who you hire. They’re about how ready you are to work with them.
