Services
From logos to websites, and everything in between, when it comes to design, whatever your needs, Triggers & Sparks has you covered!
Additionally, if there’s something I don’t do, I’ve developed strategic partnerships with a whole host of brilliant people. Need an illustration? Search engine optimization? Photography? Custom programming? I know a guy. (Or five.)
Oh, and if you already know a guy, I play well with others.
Are you making the world a better place? I want to help! Non-profits and registered charities receive a 10% discount on any of my services.
How does it all work? Well, my design process is all about you. We start by figuring out precisely what you need. Some clients know exactly what they want and just need their vision made into reality, others need design help from the ground up—either way, we’ll begin with talking about you and your business, and how I can make it even better with design!
When all the talking (or emailing, as the case may be) is done, the work starts. First off: rough mockup designs based on everything we talked about. From there, it’s a back-and-forth process of revisions, combining and refining elements until it all comes together into a design you’re sure to love.
Logos & Branding
First impressions do count, and the first thing your customers see of you is your logo. What is it telling them?
- Logo development If you’re just launching a business, now is the time to invest in a quality design and a consistent branding scheme. Get an iconic visual that represents your company and what it stands for.
- Logo redesign Your logo was designed in 1982 and features a swoosh. Perhaps it’s time for an overhaul.
- Identity development You’ve got a logo; now you need a business card, and a letterhead, and maybe a whole range of other materials. I can make sure your look is consistent throughout, so everything just fits together.
- Brand extension Got a fancy-pants branding document from a big agency? I can work within these guidelines to create new materials that suit your developed brand.
Websites & web marketing
Every year, more and more consumers get connected to the internet. Are you there to greet them?
- Custom content management systems If you need to update your website a lot, I can build you a customized system that’s easier to use than MS Word, even if you don’t know a lick of HTML.
- Simple static “brochure” websites Just want to get your information out there? Well, sure.
- Domain registration & web hosting Don’t know what this means? Don’t you worry about a thing…I’ve got it covered.
- Blog design & development I’ve worked with most systems, though my personal preference run to WordPress: open source and highly configurable, I can make your blog do whatever you need it to do.
- Email newsletter design & coding Want to mass-mail your friends & family?
Promotional Material
If you can print it out, or show it on a screen, I can make it eye-catching and gorgeous.
- Advertisements (print & web) Need something cheeky for the Sunday paper? I’m on it.
- Printed promotions Brochures, mailouts, stickers, t-shirts, flyers, postcards, newsletters, packaging—don’t just put your logo on it, make it look lovely to boot.
- Resumes A beautifully designed and well-written resume will get your foot in the door.
- Information design Your menus, signs, posters, annual reports, and wedding invitations will have so much more panache if they’re professionally designed.
- Creative collaborations Some of my favourite projects have been book covers, CD covers, and the like. Let’s make your work a work of art.
