THE PROCESS
The 3 D's
DISCOVER +
Initially, it's great to meet in person or over Zoom so I can find out about your company. This is where we discuss your purpose, objectives and target audience.
DESIGN +
Now the fun part begins! I take your creative brief and use this information to create a moodboard. Once we are on the same page here, I can go for gold!
DELIVER +
This is where the final revisions are made and once these are completed, your chosen logo and brand is supplied to you in eps, jpg, png and pdf formats. Yahooo!!
I can literally guarantee a fantastic result

I also know that I will end up with a wonderful library of brand assets and creative that will make my role as the outsource marketing manager so much easier, more fun and more successful.

The whole process was smooth and easy
Working with graphic designer Mel was such a pleasure. Mel connected with us and clearly encapsulated our learning community's vision in her shared designs.
The whole process was smooth and easy from start to finish and we are delighted with our new school logo, Omanu Kid and school house imagery. Thanks so much Mel.

Mel always seems to pick up on the "ethos"
Mel's quality of work can only be described as exceptional.
She always seems to pick up on the "ethos", style and essence of what we are wanting to achieve, and the end product is amazing.
I can give Smith Design the highest recommendation of quality design and workmanship.
