Hey there, I’m Chelsea.

A graphic designer who understands your business needs

My goal as a graphic designer is for you to have a custom, eye-catching brand that helps you build a professional reputation within your industry. I have a decade of experience as an educator and an early childhood business owner, so I know how it feels to need a well-defined brand, but not having the time or energy to make it happen.

Your brand is how you represent your business to the world. Customers are surrounded by media and advertising constantly, so having a consistent, professional brand is vital now more than ever before.

Don’t let the fear of creating your own brand continue to take up space in your busy mind. Each day that you go without a strong, well-defined brand is another day your business gets lost in the messaging.

I’m here to guide you through the process of developing a brand that allows you to stand out from the crowd, while you focus on doing what you love, improving the lives of families and children!

How it works

1. Connect

2. Strategize

3. Design

4. Refine

5. Deliver

  • You’re ready to take the first step, great! When you choose a plan you will be prompted to answer some introductory questions and schedule a 30-minute connection call with me.

    During this call we will discuss:

    • The type of business you have and where you are at on your entrepreneurial journey.

    • What you are looking for in a logo design.

    • Any questions you have about the process of working with me.

    After our call, I will develop and share your project proposal which outlines what’s included in your chosen plan, the timeline and the payment schedule.

    You can choose to approve the proposal or request modifications. If we both come to agreement on the proposal then we move on to officially working together!

  • Once you’ve accepted the proposal you will be prompted to:

    1. Sign a contract for the agreed upon terms

    2. Pay a 50% deposit

    3. Book a 90-minute strategy call with me

    4. Complete a design brief to the best of your ability

    During the strategy call we will discuss:

    • What you are looking for in a logo design.

    • What colors, style and typography you like.

    • Who your audience is.

    • Who your competitors are.

    • Any questions you have about the design process.

    During this call we will also be developing a mood board and filling in the remaining sections of your design brief. Then, we move on to the design phase.

  • Phew! It’s finally time to start designing!

    I begin the design process by drawing 5 concept sketches to share with you for feedback. From those sketches you will choose which variation you would like me to pursue. Once you’ve chosen a concept sketch, the clock starts! From here I will design the first draft of your logo within 10 business days.

    Once you receive the first draft, you will have the opportunity to provide feedback for the first round of revisions.

  • During the logo design process there will be two opportunities for revisions.

    The Major Revision

    • This is when any major changes to shape, form, and typography choice take place

    The Minor Revision

    • This is when any minor changes to color, size, and proximity take place

    Additional revisions can be purchased for $175 each.

  • Design revisions are finished and you are completely satisfied with your logo. It’s time for delivery!

    Upon final payment, you will receive all print, digital, and web files. You will also be granted full copyright ownership of the final design.

FAQ

  • The quoted prices include the design work that I complete for you, open source typography and any added features mentioned in the plan description.

    They do not include:

    • Commercial license fees for typography

    • Software subscriptions e.g. Canva or Adobe

    • Fees to hire outside specialists e.g. typographer or photographer

    I also offer clients the option to add-on specific services that are not included in their chosen plan e.g. revisions or logo variations. These add-ons result in an additional charge that would be shared with you in your project proposal.

  • No. The reason I do not offer “solo logos” is because when utilizing your logo in marketing you will need a variety of variations depending on the context.

    For example, you may need a round logo variation for your social media pages but a horizontal variation for your letterhead. Or, you may be able to use a color logo on a white background, but will need a white logo for a colored background.

    Due to this, my logo package includes enough variations for you to have the perfect logo for whatever the circumstance.

  • Yes. I also design marketing materials, slide decks, social media banners and more.

    Have a specific project in mind? Request a quote and I’ll let you know if it’s something I can do.

  • When working together, there will be multiple opportunities for you to share feedback on the progress of your work. Every project I work on includes a minimum of 2 revisions, a major revision and a minor revision.

    During this time I will make modifications and adjust the design to your liking. If after your included revisions you still want to make adjustments, you are able to purchase an additional revision for $175.

    If during any time you choose to end our contract together, you will only be responsible for payment of work already completed. This option does not result in a final deliverable or copyright ownership.
