Is my company too small for START Communications?
Never! We work with companies of all sizes from small startup businesses to national corporations, we are thrilled to work with people who want to be the best, and we will deliver our very best to make that happen!
How long has START Communications been in business?

Are you an officially recognized graphic designer?
Yes, after working years for design agencies I received a designation of Professional Graphic Designer (CGD, Certified Graphic Designer) in May 2002 by the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada. -- Eric Beal
How much graphic design experience do you have?
I have been working in the graphic design industry since 1990. I have worked for design communication agencies and for some of the leading companies in their respected industries: Sobeys Inc., Quebecor Printing, Irving Oil Limited, J.D. Irving Ltd., Kent Building Supplies, to name a few. -- Eric Beal
Are you expensive?
Not at all! In fact we offer tremendous value. Everything we design, publish online and in print is done with an end use in mind. We literally help companies make more money.
Can you start right away?
It’s possible, but my main focus is on current clients. Contact us for more info.
Can you offer help with printing?
Yes. I have extensive experience dealing with commercial printers, and I am more than happy to offer advice about how money can be saved.
You’re in a different province or country from me. Will this affect things?
Many of my clients come from outside Atlantic Canada, mainly because of my strong search engine rankings and client referrals. This hasn’t adversely affected any of my design projects, and while I’d love to meet face-to-face, it can often save time by communicating only via telephone and email.
What exactly do I receive during the course of the project?
I will normally send clients a PDF presentation showing one or two effective design solutions. Communication can be by phone and/or email to discuss the project.
