Analysis and Advice - 2 Methods

Evaluation Report
Based on sample editions of your materials and a telephone review, Ruddle Creative will prepare a customized Evaluation Report telling you what works, what doesn't and what to do next. Often the report includes design makeovers or copy rewrites in situations where minor changes can have a major impact on the materials' effectiveness.

Every Evaluation Report is followed by an in-depth telephone consultation (45-75 minutes) with Henry Ruddle to review the findings and suggestions, and to answer questions. Normally an Evaluation Report requires 3-5 business days from receipt of your sample materials to prepare, and the telephone follow-up usually occurs on the day after the report is delivered.

Fee: Newsletter - $350
Marketing materials - $500

Encore (that is, a reevaluation of the same materials at a later date once the suggestions from the first report have been implemented): Newsletter - $175
Marketing materials -
$250
