Founder's note005

A note from Sam

Let's be real.

Great designers are easy to find, but working with them can be a pain in the ass.

On one hand you have scatterbrained freelancers who are sensitive to feedback.

On the other, you have expensive agencies who hand your work to whoever's free.

Both juggle multiple clients, and will say anything to get your project wrapped up sooner.

The other option is going in-house, but hiring isn't easy; and neither is onboarding, healthcare, or a 6-figure salary.

I solve this by working with 1 client at a time.

This way, there's nothing to juggle, and your deadline is the only one I care about.

See, trust and intention go farther than taste and experience ever will.

Good news is, with me, you don't have to sacrifice any of these.

As a former founder, I know how much you care; and I know where design actually pays off in a business.

Attraction, conversion, retention, and referrals.

If working with me isn't the best experience you've had with a designer, I don't want your money.

That's why I'm selective about who I work with, why the pricing is where it's at, and why every project starts with a real conversation.

Book the call.

If things feel right, we'll start with a complimentary audit.

You'll get an honest look at your brand and product, and understand the gaps costing you time, money, and energy.

From there, we'll agree on the shape of the work, and get moving.

Excited to chat with you,

Sam HayekDesigner
