Get Started with TDS
Design as a Service

From your first call to your first deliverable in 48 hours. Here is exactly how TDS onboarding works — no surprises, no complexity, just a great creative team working on your business from day two.

THE ONBOARDING PROCESS

Four steps from first call to first deliverable

Step 01
Book a Strategy Call

Schedule a free 30-minute call with a TDS account director. We discuss your business, your current creative situation, your goals, and volume of work needed — and identify the right plan for you.

Step 02
Select Your Plan

Choose Growth ($3,500/mo), Scale ($7,000/mo), or Enterprise (custom). We confirm your subscription scope, send the agreement, and align on your onboarding start date — typically within 24 hours.

Step 03
Meet Your Team

Your dedicated creative team — senior designer, account manager, and creative director — is introduced. We set up your shared workspace, load your brand assets, and align on your first priorities.

Step 04
Start Briefing

Submit your first request through the workspace. Your team begins producing within hours. First deliverables arrive within 48 hours. From here, the relationship runs on your schedule and your priorities.

FAQ

Get started questions answered

How long does onboarding take?
Onboarding takes 48 hours from subscription confirmation to your team being live and ready to accept briefs. The first deliverable typically arrives within 48 hours of your first submitted brief.
What do I need to prepare before starting?
Ideally, your brand assets (logos, fonts, brand guidelines), examples of work you like, and a list of your first priorities. If you don't have brand guidelines, we can help create them — your first brief can be a brand identity project.
Can I start on the Growth Plan and upgrade later?
Yes. Most clients start on Growth and upgrade to Scale once their brief volume and confidence in the model increases. Upgrades take effect at the next billing cycle with no interruption to active work.
Is there a trial or money-back guarantee?
TDS does not currently offer a free trial, but there is no lock-in contract — if you are not satisfied at the end of your first month, you can cancel with no penalty. We also offer a 7-day trial engagement for qualifying businesses — ask about this on your discovery call.
