UX/UI Design Services

UX/UI designers create user experiences and visual interfaces for digital products - websites, mobile apps, software platforms, and digital services.

UX focuses on user research, information architecture, wireframing, and usability while UI handles visual design, interactive elements, and design systems.

Success requires understanding user psychology, design tools (Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD), prototyping, and collaboration with developers.

Pricing ranges from $75-200+ hourly or $5,000-50,000+ per project depending on complexity.

Projects include user research, wireframes, prototypes, visual design, design systems, and handoff to developers.

Startup costs include design software, portfolio website, user testing tools, and continuing education totaling $2,000-6,000.

Building client base involves portfolio showcasing UX process and beautiful UI, content demonstrating expertise, networking with developers and product teams, job boards (Upwork, Toptal for established designers), and agency partnerships.

Revenue comes from project fees, hourly consulting, or retainer arrangements with ongoing product work.

Operating costs include software subscriptions, user testing platforms, stock assets, and professional development.

Challenges include balancing user needs with business constraints, stakeholder management, keeping current with design trends and tools, and proving UX value through metrics.

Success requires strong portfolio showing process not just final designs, understanding business objectives beyond aesthetics, collaboration skills with technical teams, and staying current on usability best practices and design systems.
