WORK WITH ME

Not every job needs a massive process.

Sometimes you just need a fresh pair of eyes. Sometimes you need a few days to work through an idea. Sometimes you need to sort the whole bloody thing out.

Here are the ways I can help.


CHEMISTRY CALL

Free

30 minutes

Let’s see if we’re a good fit.

A chance to meet each other and talk about the job. Tell me what you’re working on, what you need help with and what you have in mind for timings and budget.

I’ll tell you a bit about how I work, and we can see if it makes sense to do something together.

It all starts with a conversation.


SECOND OPINION

$650

90 minutes

Got something that’s not quite working?

Send it over before we meet and I’ll take a look. Brand, packaging, pitch, new identity, whatever you’re wrestling with.

We’ll spend 90 minutes going through what’s working, what isn’t and what I’d do next. Afterwards, I’ll send you a short recap of the main points and next steps.

An experienced pair of eyes when you need a bit of clarity.


BRAND STRATEGY

From $3,500

3 to 4 days

Let’s find the soul of your brand.

I’ll work with you to get to the heart of your business. Why you started, what you believe in and what you want to change. We’ll uncover your purpose and work out why it matters to the people you want to reach.

Then we’ll look at the competition and find your place in the market. Something that feels true to you and gives people a reason to choose you.

You’ll get a clear purpose, positioning, personality and key messages. All pulled into a short, useful strategy to guide what comes next.

The foundations for a brand with soul.


NAMING SPRINT

From $2,500

2 to 3 days

Just need a name?

If you’ve already got your brand strategy nailed down, let’s find a name that fits.

I’ll work out what the name needs to do, explore a few interesting directions and come back with a shortlist of names with an idea behind each one.

Not hundreds of names. Just good ones.


DESIGN SPRINT

$5,000

3 days

One problem. Three days. Proper thinking.

Give me a brand or design problem and I’ll get stuck into it for three days.

I’ll come back with a small number of considered creative directions and a clear recommendation on what to take forward.

I’ve been doing this for 25+ years. We don’t need 25 meetings.


BRAND SPRINT

$10,000

8 days

Get the thinking and the design moving as one.

I’ll work out what your brand stands for, who it’s for and why anyone should care. Then I’ll turn that thinking into initial creative directions so you can see where it could go.

You’ll get a focused brand strategy and design concepts to discuss, test and build on. Further development and finished artwork are scoped separately.

Clear thinking. Something to get excited about. A way forward.


REBRAND

From $25,000

3 to 6 weeks

When a tweak isn’t going to fix it.

I’ll work out what needs changing, what’s worth keeping and build something that feels distinctive and true to your business.

Strategy, a finished identity, visual language and concise, practical brand guidelines.


THE LOT

From $50,000

6 to 10 weeks

Sometimes it all needs sorting.

I’ll help find the soul of your brand, give it a name and bring it to life.

Strategy. Positioning. Naming. Identity. Brand world. Packaging. All the pieces working together, from the first conversation through to the finished designs.

We’ll agree exactly what you need upfront, including the packaging range and launch materials I’ll design, so you know what’s covered. Production artwork is handled separately.

Basically, the lot. Thought through and designed with soul.


BRAND PARTNER

From $4,000 a month

Need someone who knows your brand and keeps it moving?

I’ll work alongside you and your team on new products, packaging, campaigns and the brand decisions that crop up along the way.

We’ll agree a set amount of time each month and what to focus on. You’ll have regular time booked with me, and I’ll get to know your business better as we go.

No account managers. No layers. You deal with me.


AN EXTRA PAIR OF HANDS

Rate by arrangement

Freelance support for agencies and in-house teams.

Need someone who can get stuck in? I’ll work alongside your team, bringing 25+ years of brand and packaging design experience to pitches, projects and busy spells.

Whether you need me for a few days or something more regular, I’ll bring fresh thinking, hands-on design and a willingness to get on with it.

Rate agreed upfront, based on the brief and length of booking.

Let’s talk.


THE PRACTICAL BITS

All prices are in Australian dollars and exclude GST.

Days shown refer to my working time, with the delivery schedule agreed before we start.

I’ll confirm the scope, timings and fee with you upfront.

Starting up and need to make the budget stretch? Let’s talk about what matters most and what can wait. We can break the work and payments into agreed stages.


STILL NOT SURE?

Let’s start with a chat.

You don’t need to know which option fits. Tell me what you’re trying to do and I’ll help you work out where to start.
