Over the years I’ve been sponge-like in my desire to soak up knowledge and learn from those around me. As a result, I’ve got a wide range of skills across a bunch of (mostly) interconnected branding, design, creative and strategic innovation disciplines.
Brand strategy
Don’t just get a logo designed, get really clear on what gets you out of bed in the morning, and develop a brand strategy that can propel your business to great things!
Advertising
Even though we all hate it, somehow you still have to get the word out about your amazing product or service. I craft copy and images for print and digital formats.
Naming
There are plenty of bad ones out there - so don’t leave this critical step to the last minute, or worse still, think that it doesn’t really matter!
SEO (search engine optimisation)
The internet is a big, crazy place and there’s a bit of a knack to helping your site be found out there. I enjoy keeping my clients’ ranking at the top of the heap.
Strategic innovation
Strategy is innovation! To survive, you have to look to the future and see what’s coming at your business in 5 or 10 years time, and start adapting now. I can help.
Graphic design
The beautiful art of visual communication - the laying out of text and images, the selection of fonts, and of course, making the logo bigger. Yep, I do lots of this.
Website design and optimisation
Wire-framing, design and new website builds, plus optimisation of existing sites. I do content and graphics, but I leave the programming to my nerdy friends.
PR, marketing strategy and implementation
I work with the talented people at Publik Agency, and together we can help you develop a winning strategy to promote your product, business or event.
Design thinking
Whether you’re selling a product or a service or both, design thinking is relevant to your business because it’s all about understanding your customers’ needs better.
Start up services
I love new and disruptive ideas! I’ve worked on a few start ups and been on two winning startup weekend teams. If you want to make an idea fly, I can help.
Brand messaging
Sounds a bit boring, but I actually really enjoy delving deep into a business or product and figuring out what they’re all about, and how best to communicate that.
Trade display and signage
From promoting apples in Asia to selling avionics equipment at the world’s biggest airshows, I’ve been helping my clients stand out and sell themselves for years.
