RETAINER SERVICES
Perfect for businesses who need design materials on a monthly basis but don’t want to hire a full-time designer.
Why a retainer?
• If you know you need design services throughout the year but can’t or don’t want to hire a full-time designer, this is for you!
• You get a discounted rate compared to my normal hourly and a la carte rates.
• You get a guaranteed amount of work each month
• You get access to a professional designer without the overhead cost of having an employee.
• You don’t have to worry about fluctuating design fees and get to pay a set amount each month.
• It’s like a design subscription for your business!
How does it work?
• The retainer fee is like a monthly design fee. Paid upfront each month before work begins.
• You receive a predetermined amount of work each month.
• You will be invoiced at the start of each month which will include any additional charges from the previous month.
• A set amount of unused hours will roll over to the next month so you don’t have to worry about losing money if you don’t have enough design need.
• 3 month minimum commitment. At the end of 3 months we will re-evaluate the program to ensure the number of hours are fitting your business needs.
