What happens during kickoff

Welcome to AZKY! We are absolutely thrilled to have you onboard as our valued client. 

We are dedicated to providing you exceptional service and we are here to support you every step of the way. We believe that a successful partnership starts with clear communication and a deep understanding of your needs, and we look forward to building a long-lasting relationship with you.

So let’s get CRACKING!
‍

Kickoff is the stage where we sit together and do a deep-dive on the look and feel of your app

But before we jump on to the kick-off call, there are a few things we need from you:
‍

• Complete the onboarding checklist 
• Review the Canvas Figma Design file
  ‍

Onboarding Checklist:

This checklist has some basic questions and guidelines about setting up a bubble.io account so we are all ready to build your application. Things we need from you are domain name, brand guidelines and terms and conditions, etc. 
‍

This step should only take a few minutes.
‍

Canvas Figma Design File:

You will receive an invite to the Canvas Figma design file. This file is quite comprehensive but our main focus is desktop/mobile blocks and desktop/mobile page templates. There are templates for login, sign up, basic onboarding, left menu dashboard with some tables, 404, reset your password and the list goes on. These are really helpful boilerplates that we can plug and play.
‍

You don’t need to be a UI/UX designer but just familiarising yourself with the structure will help you formulate your ideas in more tangible ways. Of course we can tune and change them as we go. 
‍

Before the kickoff call you are expected to think about the exact field you would like to use. You can leave comments in the Figma design file or in the Google T-Shirt sizing sheet.
‍

You need to think about the overall flow of the app and the exact fields that are needed on every screen. For example, if you are building a job portal then the on-boarding page should ask for business name, business logo, manager name, manager last name, company headcount, etc. 
‍

At this stage, you do not need to worry too much about the specifics like UI design. We know which blocks work best for which features based on experience. 
‍

Finally, the Kick-off meeting:

This has to be our most exciting part of the entire project.
‍

This is a 60-120 min session so make sure you block your diary. We are generally able to collect all information in one meeting, but we may need multiple sessions if your app is complex.
‍

We will go through your app from start to finish. You can see a marketplace example in the video above for more clarity. For every screen, we will select the blocks needed from the Figma file and discuss the exact fields required. 
‍

Once we make sure we have everything we need from you, we will take all this information offline. Our team will tidy up everything, apply your brand style guide, logo, and trim all the blocks and add the necessary fields. We will turn the design into a clickable prototype so you can really see your app screen by screen. You will be able to see what happens when the particular button is clicked and align with the T-shirt breakdown to make sure nothing is missed. 
‍

You can suggest any changes at this stage. After all the adjustments and the final review, we can start actually building your app in Bubble.
