Please note that you are purchasing a block of hours, not a completed deliverable. I will work as quickly and efficiently as I can, but there is no guarantee that we will be able to complete all your wish list items in one day.

Prioritising the items we focus on while being realistic in what can happen will make for a successful day. If you need to book another day or several hours to complete other tasks, then that is also an option.

  • The branding/logo design process is designed to take 1 week. To help keep things on track, we'll establish an organized timeline prior to the project start date. I’ll need your detailed questionnaire submitted in advance.

  • Your brand identity—including the logo—represents your business and instill an impression on potential clients. Your logo is on every website, card, handout, presentation, and package you’ll ever produce. Your logo speaks for itself, even when you’re not there to speak on behalf of your business. But it’s not just the logo—a brand identity is complete visual system that represents your brand. When this all comes together in a logical, cohesive, distinctive package, your business persona is recognizable on every level.

All of this will provide guidance that determines the design direction. Since you’re helping to set those parameters yourself, you can be confident your brand identity will be just right.

  • Compatibility is super important. Be sure to check out my Portfolio—does it have the general style you’re after? You need a designer whose work matches the aesthetic you’re aiming for. You might love how a designer presents their work, or maybe they have a great reputation or you genuinely like them as a person. But if their body of work itself doesn’t feel like you could imagine your project fitting in, you should probably find someone who feels like a better match.

  • Yes! All questionnaires I provide are due the week prior to your booked calendar days. That way, when we have our Consultation Call on the Monday your brand design begins, I’ll have had a chance to prepare. We’ll discuss your business in more detail.
