Services
Websites
Work from one of my designs, a template or inspiration concept, or straight from scratch. All websites are built in WordPress with a lean fast theme such as Astra, Neve, or Blocksey. I am moving away from page builders to achieve Google's benchmarks for speed. Websites are hosted with a reputable host (SiteGround, WP Engine, Kinsta, we'll discuss). Custom graphic design, logo service, help with content creation, and content data entry included as needed. Stock images from StockUnlimited and Deposit Photos included free of charge in many cases.
Graphic Design
Social media images, infographics, custom graphics packs, logo work, business cards, brochures, rack cards, posters, website banners, letterhead, MS Office or Google Suite templates, and more. Stock images from StockUnlimited and Deposit Photos included free of charge in many cases (excluding for logos and branding). Graphics delivered in the file formats you need, and all design files turned over to you upon project completion.
A Note About Logos
I have created many logos and cleaned up or improved many DIY logos. Often people come to me with something that doesn't have a transparent background, maybe something they made with a bit of clip art they "borrowed" online. I can do a lot to improve things in these situations.
However, I don't consider myself an advanced logo designer. If you are looking for something really high level and original, I will probably refer you out.
Here are some examples of my original logos
Examples of logos replicated to create vector files
Stock Logos
I also have stock logo templates or can work with a stock template that you provide. Some examples:
Online Marketing
Large complex sales pages for WordPress websites, LeadPages, OntraPages, and more. Sales funnel design from opt-in to upsell. MailChimp, Ontraport, WooCommerce integrations. Social media campaigns on Instagram and Facebook. Managing e-newsletters and blog posts with user-provided content, repurposing your old content, graphics and written content creation, as needed.
I am currently looking to add one or two new clients whose work aligns with my mission and values (sustainability, eco-activism, building community resilience in Floyd, Virginia and the New River Valley, personal growth, and conscious loving business.)
