Services

Managing a brand is hard. It's harder without a system.

Built for B2B marketing teams at 25 to 250 people: past piecing together freelancers, not ready for a full-time creative director. Every engagement starts with a Brand Fit Call, a 30-minute conversation to confirm the fit before either of us commits.

Engagements

Four ways to work together

Every engagement starts with a Brand Fit Call. Most begin with the Brand Audit, then scale into a Sprint, a Sales Kit, or ongoing creative direction.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a brand audit?

A brand audit is a written diagnostic of your existing brand system. I review every public-facing asset — website, deck, social, sales materials — flag the inconsistencies, and deliver a prioritized fix plan. It is not a redesign. It tells you what to fix before anyone touches a file.

How much does a brand audit cost?

$5,000 flat, paid 100% on kickoff. One-time. No retainer attached.

What does a brand audit include?

A full review of your live brand assets, documented inconsistencies with screenshots, a prioritized fix list, and a 30-minute walkthrough call. You receive a written PDF deliverable plus the live walkthrough.

How do I know if I need a brand audit?

Three signals: your team is asking 'is this on-brand?' before publishing; your assets look different across channels; or your brand has drifted across multiple freelancers, agencies, or in-house hires. If any of those are true, the audit pays for itself.

How long does a brand audit take?

Seven days from kickoff to walkthrough. Day 1 is kickoff. Days 2–5 are the review. Day 6 is delivery. Day 7 is the walkthrough call.
