YOU RUN THE BUSINESS
I’LL HANDLE THE DESIGN

Clinton Connelly

G'DAY, CLINT HERE

I PARTNER WITH ESTABLISHED OWNER LED SERVICE BUSINESSES THAT HAVE MOVED FORWARD, BUT THE WAY THEY PRESENT OR EXPLAIN THEMSELVES HASN’T FULLY KEPT PACE. TOGETHER, WE WORK OUT WHAT ACTUALLY NEEDS TO CHANGE, MAKE CLEARER BRAND DECISIONS AND BUILD A BRAND WORTH GROWING WITH.

YOUR BUSINESS HAS MOVED FORWARD, RIGHT?
HAS THE WAY YOU SHOW UP KEPT UP?

FIRSTLY... your TIME IS GETTING EATEN UP. You’re spending that valuable time fixing things, formatting or creating material when that time could be going into clients, sales or running the business.

+ THE BUSINESS HAS CHANGED. It has grown or shifted recently, but the website, socials, proposals, presentations or brand still reflect an older version of what you once were.

+ THE IMPORTANT STUFF NEEDS MORE. You can use basic software for day-to-day work, but anything going to a client needs strategic direction, a premium feel, and a matching aesthetic to your identity.

IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY

I GET IT!

I run a business too, which means I’m not just wearing the designer CAP. I’m also juggling marketing, social media, content creation, accounts, admin and everything else that comes with keeping a business moving and growing.

Clinton Connelly

I SPENT YEARS IN THE USUAL 9-5 BEFORE BECOMING A SOLE TRADER AND RUNNING MY OWN BUSINESSES. I WAS WORKING ACROSS THREE JOBS, JUGGLING ADMIN, WEBSITES, MARKETING AND SOCIALS, WITH BARELY ANY TIME LEFT FOR DESIGN.

 

WHAT I REALLY NEEDED WAS A GRAPHIC DESIGNER I COULD CALL WHEN SOMETHING CAME UP. SO I STUDIED, GOT QUALIFIED AND BECAME THAT PERSON MYSELF. NOW I HELP LIKE-MINDED BUSINESS OWNERS BY BEING THE DESIGNER I WISH I’D HAD, SOMEONE IN THEIR BACK POCKET WHO KNOWS THEIR BUSINESS, THEIR BRAND AND IS THERE WHEN THEY NEED THEM.

 

THAT’S WHY I DON’T JUST MAKE THINGS LOOK GREAT. I HELP YOU WORK OUT WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE, BRING THE BRAND UP TO THE LEVEL OF THE BUSINESS AND BUILD A PRACTICAL SYSTEM YOU CAN ACTUALLY USE YOURSELF. WORKING WITH A DESIGNER SHOULD MAKE THINGS EASIER, NOT SLOW YOU DOWN. I KEEP THE PROCESS CLEAR, THE FEEDBACK FOCUSED AND THE HANDOVER PRACTICAL SO YOU STAY IN CONTROL.

READY TO GET ME INVOLVED?
TWO WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

DESIGN & BRANDING

FOR BUSINESSES WHERE SOMETHING HAS CHANGED AND THE WAY THEY PRESENT OR EXPLAIN IT NEEDS TO CATCH UP. THAT MIGHT MEAN A REBRAND, OR IT MIGHT MEAN GETTING THE RIGHT PARTS OF THE BRAND, MESSAGING OR MATERIALS SORTED PROPERLY.
