launch with me
Closing the gap between how good you are and how your brand shows up involves more than just a logo or website. Your brand is experienced through every touchpoint, including your emails, proposals, presentations, social media, onboarding docs, and more. While every project begins with Brand Discovery and ends with Launch + Support, not every service in between will be necessary for every consultant. Together, we'll gain a clear understanding of your business, services, client experience, identify where gaps exist and determine the right combination of services to ensure your brand reflects the expertise and quality you bring to your work.
Brand Discovery + Audit (if applicable)
Before anything is designed, we get clear on your brand. You will complete a detailed questionnaire in advance. Then in our kickoff session, we refine your answers and solidify your audience, services, goals, process, differentiators, core values, and positioning statement. This becomes the foundation that guides every design and messaging from this point forward.
**Sometimes a brand audit is required if you have a previous brand.

Design for Your Client Deliverables
Closing the gap between how good you are and how your brand shows, doesn't stop with your own brand.

These deliverables should reflect the same level professionalism and expertise as the work behind it. Deliverables include, but are not limited to:

On launch day your site goes live, all final files are delivered, and launch graphics are distributed to announce your arrival. After launch you receive a one-hour website training session, a one-hour brand operations training, 10 days of complimentary minor tweaks, and a post-launch advisory session a few months in to ask questions and get guidance as you grow into your brand.
design retainer + advisory
Some projects don't end at the initial design launch...they expand into more designs. My Design Retainer is a
monthly retainer for recurring short and long term design needs or a
design advisory
for clients who handle execution internally, but need expert guidance to keep everything consistent and on brand. This service is offered only to previous clients.
