Monthly Design Retainer tasks
Put down all the balls your are juggling before you drop one 😉…this blog post is about to change your business, if you are ready to get some help to drive your business forward commercially.
Got a project in mind and want to get in touch?
We’ve seen our design retainers take a £1,500 investment and turn it into £16,500 return in 3 months. This was simply from bringing us on board, letting us ideate with you and improving consistency, email and social media graphics. We’re so confident in our service that we have recently taken away the minimum 3 month booking (although we do suggest you give us an initial period to get up to speed!) and offer retainers on a rolling contract.
We’re all busy and as founders, team leaders and entrepreneurs we understand the juggling act business owners face. Time is your most precious resource, and we're here to help you make the most of it with ongoing Brand Guardianship and Monthly Design Retainers. Let's dive into the perks:
Why Opt for a Monthly Design Retainer or Brand Guardianship?
1. Consistency:
Consistency is key in branding. With a monthly retainer, you ensure that your brand's look and feel remain cohesive across all touch points, from your website to your social media presence.
2. Cost-Effectiveness:
We know every penny counts for small businesses. Our monthly retainer offers a cost-effective solution, providing you with high-quality design services at a fixed monthly fee, saving you money compared to ad-hoc projects (or creating a bad impression with low quality output…).
3. Efficiency:
Say goodbye to endless quoting and project scoping! With a retainer in place, you have priority access to our design team, allowing you to request updates and changes swiftly, so you can keep moving forward without delays.
4. Flexibility:
Your business isn't static, and neither should your design needs be. Our retainer packages are flexible, allowing you to scale up or down as your business grows or pivots. Our minimum retainer is only 1 day of design time per month!
What’s the difference between Brand Guardianship and a monthly design retainer?
A monthly design retainer is the same as brand guardianship except for one crucial additional service; protecting your brand both now and in the future. How do we do this? We act as your art director, ensuring that all brand output is aligned with purpose, mission and continuous growth. We will stand up for your brand for now and the long term by monitoring the output of other agencies/freelancers/suppliers as well as ideating and consulting on creative.
Why?
We have worked with many clients who hire agencies that ask for designs that are flashy and bright, because they attract attention, but don’t consider that the wrong audience might be attracted, the branding inconsistencies and long term impact of these unnecessary ‘quick win’ off-brand designs.
