Your Creative Partner

Consistent design support you can rely on.


If your business is growing and your design needs are ongoing, a Creative Partner retainer gives you steady, reliable support without the need for a full-time hire.

This isn’t just about getting design done.

It’s about having someone who understands your brand, keeps everything aligned, and makes sure nothing feels rushed or pieced together.

With dedicated hours booked each month, you’ll have consistent support from someone who knows your business inside out.

No repeating yourself. No last-minute scrambling. Just design that feels considered, professional, and easy to manage.

What this gives you:

  • A brand that feels consistent and pulled together

  • More time to focus on running your business

  • Confidence in how everything looks and feels

  • Ongoing support from someone who understands your brand

  • Priority access and guaranteed hours each month

What I can support you with:

  • Social media graphics and templates

  • Brochures, reports, and marketing materials

  • Website updates and ongoing improvements

  • Presentations and internal documents

  • Campaign and launch assets

  • Day-to-day design support as your business evolves

What my clients have to say

June Hogan - Wildwood Coaching

I absolutely love working with Sam, I really feel like she gets me, my business and my brand. Her designs and creativity never cease to amaze me in how she can turn an idea in my head into something simply brilliant.

Sam is more than a creative designer, she understands marketing, social media and business, and will regularly share ideas with me over and above design work.

I really value having Sam on my team and would recommend her without hesitation if you're looking for someone to partner with you to bring your business brand to life.

Frances Fleming - Tuckwells

Sam is a joy to work with and a strong part of the Tuckwells marketing team. She understands our brand guidelines and works creatively within them; happy to work to a tight brief or offer her own design ideas as needed. Sam works well to deadlines and always responds quickly to emails, often going above and beyond to meet a tight schedule.
