What Is a Discovery Call?
Think of it as your business's first design meeting.
A Discovery Call is a friendly 30-minute conversation where we get to know each other before any design work begins. It's your chance to explain your ideas, ask questions and find out how I can help bring your vision to life.
You don't need a finished brief.
You don't need all the answers.
You don't even need to know exactly what service you need.
That's what I'm here for.
Whether you're looking for branding, graphic design, personalised products, custom clothing or ongoing design support through Marsden Makes On Demand, we'll explore the best route together.
"Hi, I'm Abi. Award-winning graphic designer, business owner and mum of three boys. I know starting a design project can feel overwhelming, so my aim is to make the whole process relaxed, enjoyable and easy to understand."
What We'll Talk About
I want to hear your story.
We'll chat about what you do, who you help and where your business is heading. Understanding your business is the most important part of creating design that genuinely works for you.
Your Business
Bring everything.
Pinterest boards, Instagram accounts, Sketches, Screenshots, Notes on your phone or absolutely nothing at all.
Whether your ideas are fully formed or still floating around in your head, we'll turn them into a clearer direction.
Your Ideas
What are you hoping to achieve?
Maybe you want to attract more customers. Perhaps you're launching something new or maybe your branding simply no longer reflects who you've become. Whatever the reason, we'll work through it together.
Your Goals
Ask me absolutely anything.
From pricing and timescales to what it's actually like working with me, nothing is off limits. Even what its like to run a business with three boys.
Your Questions
I'll recommend the services or packages that suit you best.
That might be one of my branding packages, a one-off design project or simply some honest advice about what I'd do if I were in your position.
The Best Way Forward
I’ll send over everything we’ve discussed, including costs, timings and next steps.
Then it’s over to you - no pressure or awkward follow-ups. If it feels right, amazing. If not, that’s completely okay too.
What Happens Next?
“I have used Marsden Makes Co for many projects, from personalised clothing, multimedia presentations, personalised items, advertising campaigns, logo designs, and the list goes on. Abi has always been professional in all aspects of her work. She is quick to respond to any questions or requests, and nothing is too much trouble!”
