Hey! Let me explain — branding is a customer's gut feeling about a product, service, or company. So when you think about it, a logo on its own isn’t enough to shape that feeling clearly and consistently. Imagine your logo being seen by hundreds or thousands of people — each with their own unique perspective. Without a solid brand behind it, everyone will interpret it differently, which leads to mixed messages and confusion about who you really are as a business. That’s where branding comes in. A proper brand strategy gives your business direction — it aligns your visuals and messaging with your goals, ensuring that what you stand for is clear to your audience. Without strategy, your brand is just a random mix of logos, fonts, and colours. With it, your brand becomes a powerful tool to drive awareness, build credibility, and grow your business. Your brand identity is the visual and emotional side of your brand — things like your logo, colours, typography, and overall design style. When those elements are cohesive and intentional, they do more than look good — they make your brand feel trustworthy and memorable. Then there are brand touchpoints — every interaction someone has with your brand, from your website to your social media, even down to your packaging. These touchpoints are all opportunities to create a consistent, meaningful experience that builds connection and loyalty. And finally, brand guidelines make sure that no matter where or how your brand shows up, it looks and sounds like you. They keep everything aligned so your message stays strong across all platforms. So, while a logo might seem like a quick fix, it's just one piece of the puzzle. Branding gives your business depth, direction, and distinction — and that's what truly sets you apart.

Thank you for the question! Honestly, I’m not one to compare myself to others — I believe we all have our own unique paths, and the real focus should be on growing and improving every day. What I can say is that I’m genuinely relentless when it comes to learning and evolving. That drive for constant improvement means I hold myself to high standards — not just in the work I deliver, but in how I communicate, collaborate, and build meaningful connections with my clients. I don’t just design logos — I help build brands with intention. I put a lot of thought and care into combining strategy with visuals so that everything I create not only looks great but also works hard for your business. It’s not just about what your brand looks like — it’s about how it feels and how it functions in the real world.

That’s a great question — and to be completely transparent, no, I can’t guarantee specific results for your business. Branding is just one part of a much bigger puzzle. It lays the foundation, but how it performs also depends on how it's used, your market, your offering, and the consistency in how you show up. What I can guarantee is that I’ll bring clarity, strategy, and intention into your brand. I don’t just make things look good — I create a brand that’s designed to resonate with your audience and support your business goals. Everything I do is rooted in research, thought, and purpose. So while I can’t promise instant results or a certain number of sales, I can promise to deliver a brand that’s built to grow with your business, and to give you the tools, direction, and confidence to move forward with intention.

Great question! Typically, a branding project takes up to two months to complete. That said, every project — and every client — is different. I tailor my approach to suit your needs, so timelines can vary depending on how complex the project is and how smoothly everything flows. Sometimes things align perfectly — feedback is quick, content is ready, and we’re on the same page from the start. In those cases, we can wrap things up in under two months. But there are also times where delays naturally happen or the project requires deeper strategy and more moving parts — in those cases, it might take up to three months. What matters most to me is doing it properly, not rushing the process just to tick a box. I’ll always give you a clear timeline at the beginning, and keep you updated along the way — communication and flexibility are a big part of how I work.

This answer will likely lead you to one of three categories: 1. You’ve worked with a designer or agency before, so the price makes sense — great, let’s get started. 2. It caught you off guard, and now you’re wondering how I’ve got the nerve to charge that much. 3. It’s a bit more than you expected, and you’re not quite sure whether it’s worth it. If that’s the case, let me explain. My branding projects start at **€5,000+**. That price reflects the end result — a strategic, meaningful brand identity that’s built with care, intention, and a lot of thought. I don’t charge for time spent — I charge for the impact and quality of what we create together. There are no templates, no copy-paste solutions. Everything is designed from scratch, grounded in strategy, and shaped around your goals. The process is collaborative, and the outcome is something we’re both proud to stand behind. If you're looking for continued creative support after launch, I also offer ongoing support partnerships. These are tailored to each business and often include things like social content, packaging updates, campaign visuals, or brand touchpoints — all the bits that help your brand stay sharp and consistent as you grow. It’s perfect if you want to take design off your plate and keep things moving without compromising on quality. So no, it’s not the cheapest option out there — but it’s crafted properly, with care, clarity, and a high standard every step of the way.

Yes — for larger projects, I offer split payments to make things a bit easier. Usually it’s broken into two or three stages: a deposit to secure the slot, one mid-project, and the final payment before handover. If you’ve got a specific setup in mind, feel free to bring it up during our discovery session — I’m happy to find something that works for both sides.

Yes — once the project is complete and the final payment is made, the approved brand assets are all yours. You’ll receive everything neatly packaged and ready to use, along with brand guidelines so you know how to use it all properly. Just to clarify — I don’t hand over raw working files or unused concepts unless we’ve agreed on that separately. What you get is the full, final brand identity, built to last and fully owned by you.

That’s completely fine — I often work with businesses who already have something in place but feel like it’s no longer doing the job. Whether it’s a full refresh or a completely new brand identity, we’ll figure out what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to evolve. The goal is to create something cohesive and intentional that actually reflects where your business is headed — not just where it’s been. I’ll guide you through the process so the final result feels aligned, clear, and built to grow with you.

Not at all. While I’ve worked with a range of industries — from tech to hospitality to lifestyle — what really matters to me is alignment. If you care about building something meaningful and are serious about investing in your brand, we’ll probably get along just fine. My process is rooted in strategy and collaboration, so it works across all types of businesses. Whether you're just starting out or levelling up, I tailor everything to your goals and audience — no cookie-cutter approaches here.
