Branding & Visual Strategy

Watercolour Heart branding clients are bright, spirited entrepreneurs who have put their whole heart into the growth of their business and are ready to see it flourish.

They understand that it’s time to invest in telling and artfully curating their brand story - why they began, what is at the core and how they can transform the experiences of their clients by doing so.

FAQ

 

+ How long is the project?

It may vary from one client to another but generally 4 - 5 weeks.

+ What is the payment plan?

I require a 50% deposit on project start and the remaining 50% when we've completed the project, before sending final files. I am happy to discuss custom payment plans if need be.

+ do i need to book?

Projects spaces fill up pretty quickly, it's always best to book at a minimum of 1 month in advance or pop me a message to see what availability is like.

 

+ IF 2 REVISONS ARE NOT ENOUGH?

By the time we are working on the revison sets, we would have covered enough ground together, knowing your business heart with a clear vision that this shouldn't be the case. However, there is always room for us to discuss reasons why this may be and additional time added to your quotation.

+ CAN WE MEET IN PERSON?

While in-person meetings aren't possible I'd love to 'meet' you one screen to another over Skype or Whatsapp to discuss your brand questionnaire, I promise to make it as lovely and personal as if we were sitting across a table from one another!

+ DO YOU DESIGN A LOGO ONLY?

To benefit from the strength and impact of an artful and dynamic brand identity that tells your story - a logo, on it's own, is not enough. Branding is deeper than aesthetics only - it’s really about speaking directly to your dream client and carving out your unique place in the market with your one-of-a-kind story. I believe in starting where you are with what you have, but saving to invest richly and wisely in your business.
