Just wrapped a new branding project ⚡
DealDesk helps companies negotiate smarter SaaS dealswith a strong premise - “Every vendor has a Deal Desk. Buyers should too.”
The challenge? They needed to look premium enough for C-suite trust but modern enough to stand out. Go too corporate and you're just another boring procurement firm. Too startup-y and you lose the gravitas. Threading that needle was exactly the kind of ask that makes branding work so fun.
We’re now moving into web + asset design under my Design Support service - taking the brand from strategy into real-world touchpoints.
Full case study is live 👀 Check it out
The DealDesk branding is so sharp! That balance of premium and modern is exactly right for a B2B SaaS brand — the dark teal palette and clean typography really communicate trust. Great work!
Contra just launched payment links.
Faster. Simpler. Less friction.
For most payments, sending the link is enough.
But for larger projects or milestone payments, presentation still matters.
So we built a minimal payment summary designed to pair with Contra’s payment links.
- Add your branding.
-Generate your link on Contra.
- Update the QR code in Canva.
Share a polished, client-ready summary when you want that extra layer of professionalism.
It’s not about adding steps. It’s about elevating the moments that deserve it.
This is very clever!

I've spent nearly 5 years building for other people:
Websites.
Digital products.
Launch strategies.
For e-comm brands and top creators. I'm good at it but, it's also fully dependent on clients.
One slow month meant a slow everything.
That was the problem I had to solve.
