FAQs

How does ongoing design support work?

+
-

Ongoing design support means booking me for a regular slot - for example, one day a week or a few days a month. We agree on a set-up that suits you, and I become your go-to designer for anything you need during that time - whether that’s social media graphics, a brochure, branded templates, or something else entirely. It’s flexible, reliable and built around your needs.

How long is the commitment for ongoing design support?

+
-

I ask for a minimum commitment of one month so I can plan my schedule and give each client the attention their projects deserve. That said, many clients choose to stick around longer and I love building those lasting working relationships!

Can I book you for a one-off project?

+
-

Yes, definitely. I take on one-off projects - whether that’s a report, set of social assets, or a new menu design. If you have something in mind, just drop me a message and we can figure out what’s needed and how long it might take.

How much do you charge?

+
-

Pricing depends on the type of work and the scope. For ongoing support, I usually charge a day rate. For one-off projects, I’ll give you a quote based on what you need. I’m always upfront about costs and I’ll never surprise you with hidden fees.

What kind of work do you do?

+
-

I specialise in layout design - things like reports, brochures, social graphics, presentations, menus, branded templates and more. I love creating work that not only looks great but is genuinely useful too.

That said, I’m open to most things! If it needs designing, chances are I can do it, and I enjoy a challenge. If you’ve got something in mind, feel free to get in touch for a chat. The only thing I don’t offer is website design, it’s just not my thing.

What programs do you use?

+
-

I mainly use Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Canva but I can work flexibly depending on what suits you best. If you want something editable after I’ve designed it, I can make sure it’s built with that in mind.

Can you work with my brand guidelines?

+
-

Absolutely - I love working within existing brand guidelines, and I’m happy to take the time to read through them properly. If you don’t have any, I can help you develop a consistent look and feel.

Do you offer editable templates?

+
-

Yes! I often create templates in Canva or InDesign that clients can update themselves. It’s a great way to get professional design that you can reuse again and again.

I don’t really know what I need yet - can we chat first?

+
-

Of course! You don’t need to have everything figured out. I’m happy to talk things through and help you work out what’s right for your needs and your budget.
