Common starting points

CLIENT GUIDE / How it works
THE DESIGN PARTNERSHIP

Copy a request brief

A practical template you can copy, fill in, and share through our agreed request channel.

Copying a template does not submit a request.

A useful brief explains the business problem before prescribing the design. Fill in what you know, mark anything undecided, and link to the current files. The copy button below gives you the template without the surrounding guidance.

Request template

Request title: Business goal and problem to solve: Audience: Deliverable and where it will be used: Required sizes, formats, pages, or variations: Approved copy (link): Brand assets and images (links): References and what I like or dislike: Technical requirements or printer template: Deadline and why it matters: Decision-maker and approver: How we will judge the result: Missing inputs, assumptions, or decisions:

Keep the brief useful

  • Use one link to the current copy rather than several conflicting attachments.
  • Explain what a reference gets right. A screenshot alone leaves the important decision unstated.
  • Distinguish a real launch deadline from a preferred delivery date.
  • Name one person who will consolidate feedback and approve the work.
  • Flag missing information before work starts. Discovery can be the first request when the direction is still open.

Share it in the agreed place

Copying the brief does not submit a request. Paste your completed version into the request channel we agree on at onboarding. Use collaborator invitations for access, not passwords in the brief.
