About this service

Summary

This monthly design retainer offers flexible, ongoing creative support without the commitment of hiring in-house. Perfect for startups, small teams, or founders who need high-quality design help on an as-needed basis. Whether it’s web design, sales materials, UI polish, or motion, this retainer is designed to fill the creative gaps and keep your brand moving forward. All work is collaborative, on-brand, and delivered with developer-ready files. The price is set for 15 hours per month. Looking for other options? Here's a breakdown of the tiers:

Weekly Check-Ins or Async Updates Share updates, progress, and feedback via Slack, Notion, or email—whichever works best.

End-of-Month Wrap-Up Recap what’s been completed and prep for the next cycle (if continuing).

FAQs

  • What can I use the 15 hours for?

    Anything design-related: landing pages, web updates, sales decks, UI polish, motion direction, or brand visuals.

  • Can I increase hours if I need more?

    Yes, additional time can be added at $80/hr depending on availability.

  • What if I need less than 15 hours per month?

    This retainer is designed around a 15-hour commitment to ensure availability and project flow. If you need fewer hours, one-off project support (like a landing page or sales deck) may be a better fit—or we can chat about a custom scope that fits your needs and timeline.

  • Do unused hours roll over?

    Unused hours don’t roll over to keep the schedule consistent and availability fair for all clients.

  • Can I pause or cancel?

    You can cancel or pause with advance notice before the next billing cycle. There’s no long-term commitment.
