HOW IT STARTED.
I am guilty of it too…
As a small business owner and wanna-be Wonder Woman I am always trying to do it all in my business leaving myself only a small amount of time left to do those things that I really am best at…you know, those things that you start your business to do in the first place, right? For example, it’s embarrassing to even admit, but I am constantly trying to take my own photos for my site and shop. After waaay too much time spent “shooting” (read: me being scared and confused by how ugly my camera is making my subject!) I then spend hours “fixing” them in Photoshop only to use them (out of sheer determination, mind you) knowing in my heart that they fall very short of the high quality represented by the Ashlee Proffitt brand.
Some work days I end up letting countless hours of this kind of work steal away from the precious little time that I have to focus on what really sets me apart and sets my heart on fire and actually grows my business – designing!!
If you can relate to this feeling then I have created the perfect solution for you. You, my friend, can get your creative freedom and time back starting today.
WHY DO I NEED AN IN-HOUSE DESIGNER?
You will never find a truly successful business settling for less than polished, consistent, and quality graphic design as a foundation for their ongoing brand experience. The hard truth though is that not every small business owner is a trained and experienced graphic designer. Still, many of you are wasting much time attempting to create quality brand level design for the day-to-day needs of your business and then putting it out there for the world to see, all while fully knowing it does not meet your standard or the standard you want to establish for your brand as a whole.
Maybe you have learned your way around design programs enough to get by, but again, your business (and you) THRIVE when you have the freedom to focus on what you do best!
I’M HERE TO HELP!
I am opening up a limited partnership opportunity as an exclusive, on call, “in-house” graphic designer to only three clients at a time. Once those three partnerships are filled there will be a waiting list for a space to open up. The partnerships will work on a three month contracted retainer model at $400 per month for up to 6 hrs of design work per month which offers you a discount over my hourly rate and gives you unheard of same-week turnaround on most projects with special priority treatment on all of your requests. I will be your “in-house” designer!

WHO IS THIS IN-HOUSE DESIGNER SERVICE FOR?
This type of partnership is not for everyone. This is for high-level functioning, already fully branded businesses currently feeling the very real pain of having too many plates spinning already. It is for those businesses who know that they need the highest level of professional, polished, quality and consistent graphic design work but are currently experiencing the less-than professional results of trying to do it all themselves.
Start with one three month contract and allow me to make myself indispensable to you. You might even get to eat dinner with your family again and finally NOT work on a Saturday! (Gasp!) Or you can keep doing what you are doing (relaxation is overrated right?).
I’M READY! SIGN ME UP!
Full branding and re-branding are assessed at regular additional branding rates.
Feel free to send me the type of ongoing design needs that you have and I would be happy to tell you whether this would be a good fit for you!
