  • Choosing a new development partner can be a big decision—especially when it comes to something as technical and business-critical as your Drupal site. At Drupalify, we understand that trust isn’t built overnight, which is why our first 30 days together are designed to make you feel confident, informed, and in control.

    Here’s what you can expect when you begin your Drupal journey with us.

    Week 1: Kickoff and Deep Discovery

    It all starts with a clear understanding of your goals. After your initial consultation call, we schedule a project kickoff to dig deeper into

    • Your website’s current state (if applicable)

    • Business goals and KPIs

    • Technical requirements and timelines

    • Key stakeholders and communication preferences

    We gather all the context we need to make strategic decisions that benefit your users and business.

    Week 2: Technical Audit or Planning Sprint

    Depending on where you're starting, we do one of two things

    • For existing sites we conduct a full Drupal technical audit, reviewing code quality, performance, modules, and security

    • For new projects we run a planning sprint to define architecture, modules, and functionality

    You’ll receive a clear summary of findings and next steps with recommendations based on real data.

    Week 3: Design and Development Kickoff

    Once strategy and planning are in place, we move into design or development

    • For redesigns, we start wireframing and designing based on your brand

    • For dev-only projects, our developers begin setup and configuration in a staging environment

    We keep you involved with weekly check-ins, demos, or async updates—whichever method works best for your team.

    Week 4: Delivery Milestones and Feedback Loop

    By week four, you’ll start seeing deliverables in action—whether it’s working components, templates, or modules. We focus on

    • Fast turnaround with small, reviewable milestones

    • Active feedback collection

    • Adjustments based on priorities and feedback

    This iterative approach keeps progress aligned with your expectations while ensuring high quality.

    Open Communication Throughout

    We prioritize transparency and clarity. Expect

    • Dedicated Slack or email thread for real-time questions

    • Weekly reports outlining tasks completed and upcoming items

    • Access to staging servers or progress tracking tools

    If you ever have questions about our process, pricing, or technical approach, our FAQ page is always available to give you quick, clear answers.

    Why Clients Love Their First 30 Days

    • Clear Roadmap You know exactly what’s happening and why

    • Fast Wins We prioritize low-hanging improvements or tasks early

    • Collaborative Process Your feedback shapes the direction

    • Low Risk High Value Even in the first month, you get real progress—not just planning

    At Drupalify, we believe the first 30 days set the tone for a long, productive partnership. Whether you’re starting a full site build, migration, or ongoing support plan, we’ll make sure you feel confident in our team from day one.
