Frequently Asked Questions
How does a monthly design retainer work and what do we get each month?
A design retainer gives you a set number of creative hours each month that you can use for anything you need, from brochure updates and branded PDFs to website changes, SEO rich blogs, landing pages, product sheets, and social media templates. You send us your tasks, we schedule them in, and your marketing keeps moving without delays or repeated quoting.
Is a design retainer better value than booking design work as needed?
Yes, most businesses find a retainer gives far better value. You get priority scheduling and consistent output because we plan your work in advance. It keeps your website and marketing materials updated every month, something one off projects rarely achieve.
Why choose an outsourced designer instead of hiring in house?
A retainer gives you senior level design and digital support without the cost of a full time salary. You get someone who already knows your brand, can work across print and web, and can support your marketing team without adding pressure or extra staff to manage.
