Everything people ask before working together

What areas does Plan-It Creative Studio serve?

Plan-It is based in Nova Scotia and works with small businesses across the Maritimes, including New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Most work happens remotely, so location within the region is never a barrier.

What services does Plan-It Creative Studio offer?

Four core services: web design, brand identity, SEO (including AI search optimization), and social media management. Projects can be scoped individually or combined.

How much does a website cost?

Every project is quoted individually based on scope — there are no fixed packages. A simple site and a booking-enabled build are very different projects, and the quote reflects what yours actually needs. Reaching out for a conversation is the fastest way to get a number.

How much does a logo or brand identity cost?

Like everything at Plan-It, branding is quoted per project. The main factors are how much of a system you need — a logo refresh is different from a full identity with guidelines and launch collateral.

Why don't you list prices on the website?

Because fixed packages force your project into someone else's box. Custom quoting means you pay for what your business needs — nothing bundled in that you won't use.

Who actually does the work?

Plan-It is a small, hands-on team. The person you talk to during scoping works directly on your project — no handoff to a junior, no outsourced work.

How long does a typical project take?

Most websites take three to six weeks; branding projects typically run two to four weeks. SEO is ongoing by nature, with local improvements usually visible in two to three months. Every quote comes with a realistic timeline.

Do you work with businesses outside the Maritimes?

The focus is the Maritimes, where local knowledge adds real value. That said, if you're elsewhere and the fit is right, it never hurts to ask.

Can you fix or update my existing website instead of rebuilding it?

Often, yes. Sometimes a site needs targeted fixes — speed, mobile issues, SEO structure — rather than a rebuild. An honest assessment of which is part of scoping.

What is AEO and do I need it?

AEO (answer engine optimization) is about making your business findable and citable by AI tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews, which more customers use every year. If being found matters to your business, it's worth building for — and it's included in how Plan-It approaches SEO.

What happens after my website launches?

You get a walkthrough so you can manage everyday updates yourself. Ongoing help — maintenance, SEO, content — is available but never required.
