DesignFlow, senior design on subscription

The senior designer your brand is missing.

A senior designer who already knows your brand and the strategy behind it. Decks, pages and campaigns, most delivered within 24 to 48 hours. No hire, and no new freelancer every time.

The design dilemma

Growing fast makes design harder.

Every new hire, campaign and pitch can pull the brand in different directions without proper design ownership. Founders, marketing leads and in-house teams rarely have a senior designer on hand, or the time to brief a new one. So the choice becomes an expensive hire too early, freelancers who do not know the brand, or letting it drift.

Why DesignFlow

Design support that already knows your brand.

DesignFlow keeps every touchpoint saying the same thing, every week, so the trust you've built keeps growing. Senior design for a fraction of a full-time hire, and you can pause when the backlog is quiet. Ocean Bottle has kept us on for three years.

  • Senior design from people who know your brand and the strategy behind it

  • Pause when the backlog is quiet

  • The same team, every week. Reliable, consistent output

  • One task at a time, done properly, with unlimited revisions

How it works

One backlog. One task at a time.

You brief the creative director directly. The same designers work on your brand every week, so they learn it once and build on it.

  • 01

    Add it to your backlog.

    Every request goes into your design workspace, where your brand assets already live.

  • 02

    We design it.

    One task at a time. Most are delivered within 24 to 48 hours, depending on the task.

  • 03

    Review, approve, download.

    Feedback happens in the same place, as many rounds as it takes. Approve it and the next task moves into progress.

Kick-off call to start. Billed monthly. 10 working days' notice to stop. Unlimited revisions. You own everything we make.

FAQ

Before you book.

What can I send?

Pitch decks, website design, social media, print, product design and merchandise. Everything on the included list, in either plan.

How fast is it?

Most requests are delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Bigger pieces take longer.

Why one task at a time?

So each piece gets finished properly. Approve it and the next one in your backlog starts straight away.

Who does the work?

You brief the creative director. The same designers work on your brand every week, so it's always someone who already knows it.

Do I need BrandCraft first?

No. Upload your brand materials to the workspace and we start with a kick-off call. If the story itself isn't clear yet, BrandCraft is the better place to start.

What happens to days I don't use?

Up to five unused days roll over into the next month. If you don't use them that month, they expire.

How do I stop?

Give 10 working days' notice. On the Full plan you can also pause for up to 20 days.

Who owns the work?

You do. Every file and all the IP.

If you’ve outgrown the way the market sees you, that’s worth twenty minutes.

A straight conversation about where you are and what you need. If someone else would suit you better, we’ll tell you.
