Three Reasons You Need a Pirate in Your Pocket

It’s the end of January. That time of year when the holidays are a distant memory, New Year’s resolutions begin to falter, and that marketing to-do list you have in your head begins to create a little anxiety.

I can’t call you every morning and encourage you to get to the gym but I can help you with the website redesign you’ve been meaning to do, refresh the brand you’ve been limping by with since you paid your nephew $100 to design a logo, or design that annual report that’s due in a few months.

A pirate in your pocket

As a entrepreneur or small business owner, you probably don’t have enough resources to hire an in-house designer but you still have marketing initiatives you’d like to move on in 2024. That’s why you need a pirate in your pocket or, in other words, an experienced designer you can call when you want to plow through your marketing to-do list.

Here are just a few of the advantages of having a designer on call:

  • Get organized and set priorities for your branding and marketing initiatives

  • Move past the procrastination of “I’ll get to it when I’m not so busy.”

  • Relieve the anxiety of your unfinished marketing to-do list

  • Save time and money and avoid the hassle of looking for a designer for each project

I’ve helped many entrepreneurs over the years through my subscription-based support packages. Each one is structured with so you can find the perfect fit for your needs; whether it’s short-term help with a handful of branding and marketing items or long-term support to help grow your business.

Wondering what it’s like to have a pirate in your pocket? Here are three things to consider:

1. Priority and Commitment

I give priority in my schedule to subscription clients so you don’t have to worry about meeting a deadline or getting a quick response. Also, you can begin your client-designer relationship with a low-risk commitment. I offer packages that are monthly, quarterly, and yearly.

2. Get those small jobs done

You don’t have to go through the hassle of finding a designer, requesting a proposal, and waiting to sign a contract every time you have a small design project. You can also avoid assigning these small jobs to your administrative assistant who probably has no interest in being your in-house designer.

3. More than projects

Do you need some quick marketing advice? How about a 30-minute brand consultation? You can easily book a phone or Zoom call and take advantage of my 30+ years of experience. Perhaps you need an in-depth rebrand of your organization. As a subscription client that can be part of your package, as well.

WHAT YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR

My subscription-based support allows me to develop a short or long-term relationship with you, act as a guide for branding and design as your company grows, and provide a high level of service at an affordable price point. If you’re ready to put a pirate in your pocket, schedule a call and let’s talk.
