“The key to great ideas is not having them, it is executing them. And great ideas come from problems. As designers we call problems, briefs and we call reactions to problems, concepts.”

FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
Unfortunately not. I’m a online only graphic designer. All of my meetings are run through Google meets, however I’m open to any other platforms if needed.
From the first meeting to the brief and final approval, each project really depends on the project itself. A logo design could take 2 weeks with or without a Brand Guide, however if there are some changes then that might effect the timeline. Each project will have a timeline, and hopefully each project goes according to plan, be it cannot always be guaranteed.
Yes, I’m very well connected to offer a brilliant copywriter, campaign manager to manage your monthly social media as well as to engage with your followers. You don’t have time, so why not give a full-time project to someone that’s well equipped to do so.
I do not, however I do recommend a great hosting provider, as they are the best with communication and getting back to you urgently with any complications.
Once we’ve had our first meeting and the project starts please remember that depending on the project, for new projects I would need information and for existing collateral I would need all open files. This will be commutated clearly with each meeting or email response.
I always plan out my days the week before. Depending on my calendar I usually may be able to assist within the next 24 to 48 hours. This also depends on the scope of the project. Small changes to an existing project will take priority to make sure there are no delays to the client.
