Most **website design Perth** projects drag because the brief is vague. The studio guesses. You wait. Screenshots bounce for three weeks. Then the quote changes. This page is the opposite: what to send once, so a Perth studio can price and build without the email tennis.

**JetBlok Studio** is a Perth web design and SEO studio (ABN 39 822 500 563). Packages are Starter $999, Growth $1,999, Pro $2,999+. Call [0431 242 326](tel:+61431242326) or [WhatsApp](https://wa.me/61431242326) if you want a human read before you write anything. The [brief](https://jetblok.com.au/get-started) is optional. It is not a ten-minute form you must finish before we talk.

## What a useful website design Perth brief actually contains

Keep it short. One page of notes beats a 40-slide deck.

- **Legal name, trading name, ABN, phone, suburb.** Same NAP you will put on Google Business Profile.
- **What you sell, in one sentence.** “Blocked drains and hot water in Joondalup to Wanneroo,” not “full service solutions.”
- **Who you want calling.** Homeowners, strata, builders, cafes. One primary audience.
- **Must-have pages.** Home, services, about, contact. Add suburb or gallery pages only if you will maintain them.
- **Proof you already have.** Licence numbers, three job photos, Google reviews URL, competitor sites you respect.
- **Hard constraints.** Launch date, budget band, who owns the domain today.

That is enough for a fixed Starter or Growth quote. Pro work needs the same core, plus the custom feature list (portal, calculator, ecommerce).

## What to leave out of the first message

- Colour theories and font essays. Send one site you like the feel of. We will adapt it to your brand.
- Every suburb in Perth. Start with the areas that already pay you.
- “Make it rank #1.” Ask for SEO foundations and Local SEO months instead. We do not sell ranking guarantees.
- Stock photo moodboards. Real vans and finished jobs convert better.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I need a finished brand kit before briefing?

No. Logo, phone, and a clear service list are enough for Starter. Brand polish can follow.

### Can I brief after we talk?

Yes. Call first. The brief is a written path for people who prefer it, not a gate.

### What if my brief changes mid-build?

Small copy edits are normal. New page types or custom apps move you toward Growth or Pro. Fixed packages stay fixed when the scope stays fixed.
