For businesses just like yours.
My clients come in a variety of sizes, types, backgrounds, and stages of growth, and while each one is unique, what they want to accomplish with their brand is similar, so if this sounds like you, I can help.
Make a great first impression
You’re starting your first business and need solid branding to get established. You want your brand to make a great first impression but aren’t sure where to start.

You feel like you’re not quite connecting with what your customers is really after. Despite your best efforts, you can’t seem to capture the attention or engagement of your ideal customers.
You know it’s time to refresh your brand visuals from a few years ago. Your business has grown, but your branding is stuck in the past and needs a new look that reflects where you are and where you’re going.

Let’s build a brand that blows away your customers and your competition together.
I’ve got the tools and experience to make it happen all I need is you!
-
My brand designs are more than just what you see. they are made up of 10 key components that go beyond your logo to form the basis of not only your logo but your brand's entire look, feel, style, personality, messaging, target audience and positioning. This makes for a significantly more robust brand and provides you the tools you need to build trust, drive growth and maximize your impact.
-
Turnaround times vary but you should plan four to six weeks. Additional deliverables and how quickly you respond to questions, proofs, feedback etc. will have an impact on the timeline as well.
Need it more quickly than that? I have option for quicker turnaround. Just ask.
-
Cost can vary depending on the number of additional deliverables you need but my clients spend between $2,500 and $5,000 on average.
-
My process involves in-depth research, assessment and discussions to narrow down your goals, values, audience, personality and preferences. All of this information is used to develop distinct design directions and/or brand concepts. The project will not move forward until you have approved a concept. If necessary, rounds of revisions can be used at this step to tweak the concept(s) to your liking. This process ensures that we are on the same page before I begin the design stage and virtually guarantees you'll be happy with your final brand design.
-
Different types of communication happen at different phases in the process. Initially, a phone call or two helps us get to know each other and the general scope of your project.
Once you pay your fee/deposit I’ll start the onbaorading process and set up your online client portal. This is where the bulk of communication will happen throughout the project.
You’ll be able to see milestones, review concepts, provide feedback and any documents/files needed for the project here. This is also where I will post your final files for download.
Screen sharing meetings are used to present concepts and final branding assets.
-
Your final deliverables will be provided in a variety of industry standard formats suitable for both web and print purposes including .png, .ai, .eps, .pdf and .jpg. This usually covers 99% of needs but if there is another file type you need, let me know and I’ll do my best to provide it.
All of the files will be labeled and organized into easy-to-navigate folders.
I also include a PDF guide of file types and how to use them.
-
Every project requires a deposit to secure a spot on my calendar and begin the onboarding process.
The deposit amount and when the balance is due will be included in a detailed, custom quote/proposal you’ll receive before we begin.
-
Absolutely! Once we've built your new brand I can help you impliment it by creating the colateral materials you need. Signage, social meida, merch, brochures, trade show booths, business cards...you name it. Just let me know what you need and we'll hammer out the details.
Except websites...See the next FAQ.

Web design and development is a specialty in itself, so I no longer take on web projects. I recommend my clients hire a dedicated individual or company for this. The company can reference the branding guide and use all of the assets we develop to build the site and keep it on track and consistent with your new look.
-
With me, you'll save time and money over an agency and still get high-quality design because I don't have the high overhead of a fancy office or large staff handling dozens of projects at once. Plus you'll get the personal attention and focus of a freelancer without having to deal with flaky, disorganized creatives and their unpredictiable processes and outcomes.
