My first freelance client was relaunching their business and needed a full branding consult and website design.
For this, we discussed the current business plan and what they felt they needed in their brand. We looked at the colours they loved together and what they wanted to achieve with the new website.
With this, I designed a selection of logo options from our discussions, varying colours within the same family. We tweaked the logo from of their choosing and colours to include what they loved from each and brainstormed a tag line to go along with the logo that helps clients understand the business straight away.
Then the website! This was a little harder with tweaks and changes to the goal of the site, and we finally got something that delivers for their clients with contact forms, banners, pop-ups, services, events (allowing customers to purchase tickets) and the ability to add e-commerce in the future.

Wendy came to me with the need of a new website before her course went live in April. This was a chance for me to get to grips with a software that I haven't used in a while but is massively effective to create websites with.
We started out with a consultation call to get to grips with what wendy wanted and her branding that has recently been updated by a third party. Wendy has an established business so matching the current branding throughout her social media, print media and website is massively important.
We used wordpress to design a professional, relatable and adaptable website that works for CICs. This included adding third party plugins and linking marketing tools.
Testimonials
"I had bought the domain name, registered to create my website on a self-built platform, but then it hit. Analysis paralysis. I sort of knew what I wanted to say, but the fear around the technology left me with no idea how to start. I knew I wanted hearts in my logo, which was important to me, but I spent hours and hours getting nowhere fast.
I logged into the site and had no clue where to start, so I knew I needed help from an expert.
I find it difficult as a creative person to get to grips with the technology and design side of things – I knew what I wanted but found it difficult to get it out there, and most importantly, for it to make sense and reflect me as a person as well as a business.
Molly sent me a series of questions so she could fully understand what I needed and get a feel for my business and services. After she had analysed my completed information, I was given a proposal and set some guidelines on copy and content. This made it so easy for me to collate and create the information she would interpret and create my branding and website from.
Within the agreed timescale, Molly had given me options for branding and web format. We made a branding decision, and I provided the content and copy. Molly guided me all the way – she totally gets that this sort of thing is way out of my comfort zone, and there is no judgment at all. My weakness is her superpower!
The website was designed within a very short period of time, and we were soon ready to launch and hit go.
Since launching my website, Molly has been on hand to offer support and make any changes that are needed. She has advised on blog articles and keeps a watchful eye on SEO and website visitors.
I would highly recommend if you want a new website or any branding or support, then speak to Molly. Her approach is one of professionalism without the jargon that many find overwhelming, offering a service that is efficient, prompt and above all gets results." - Elaine Mitchell Coaching & Support for women!
