Hi, I’m Robin. ▪️ Award winning brand strategist and marketeer ▪️ MBA from Brunel University ▪️30+ years in marketing and consulting ▪️Helping businesses and independent professionals create brands with substance. Brand strategy is positioning, not logos, colors, typography, and design. Individuals and businesses come to me to define and articulate the core DNA and identity of their brands. Only once positioning is clear, can we translate that into a clear visual identity and relevant marketing, messaging, and content strategies. Without clear brand positioning, businesses struggle to differentiate themselves. Marketing is fractured and inconsistent, messaging is off the mark, and the consumer is left with more questions than answers about your brand. By analyzing your competitors and defining your audience segments, I’ll help you build a differentiated strategic foundation, sharpen your positioning, voice, and value proposition, and create clarity across every customer touchpoint. My approach blends decades of proven thinking and practical experience with modern technologies to balance strategic rigor and logic with commercial grounded creative thinking and ideas. My experience comes from working on global and local brands across a broad range of industries including personal brands, automotive, technology, retail, healthcare, media, consulting, engineering, financial services, energy, real estate, professional services, nutrition, and distribution. I’ve worked with Upwork clients in the US, Canada, Uruguay, UK, Dubai, Netherlands, India, and South Africa.

I help service-based brands create clear, professional and engaging content for Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn, without the stress of having to design and plan everything themselves. Through my business, Original Edge, I support brands with: - Monthly social media content planning - Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn post design - Branded carousel creation - Caption writing - Reel covers and story graphics - Content calendars - Ongoing social media support I have created content for consulting, property, audit, education and consumer-facing brands, adapting each visual style and message to the client's audience and goals. My approach is simple: content should not only look professional; it should help your business remain visible, credible and consistent. Whether you need a monthly content partner or support with an upcoming campaign, I can help you turn your ideas into polished content your audience can engage with.

I help businesses solve brand, digital and communication problems, from strategy and identity through to websites, business systems, packaging, presentations and ongoing digital support. With more than 20 years of experience, I combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution. That means I can help define what needs to change, build the solution, and make sure the different parts of the business work together rather than becoming disconnected projects. What I can help with • Brand strategy, positioning and identity • Logo design and brand systems • Website strategy, UX, design and development • Digital platforms, forms, workflows and business systems • Packaging, labels and print production • Presentations, proposals, tenders and corporate documents • Digital marketing strategy, campaigns and content systems • Creative direction and ongoing brand support I work with startups, established businesses, agencies and corporate organisations. My experience includes senior creative and strategic work for corporate and government clients in Qatar, as well as hands-on brand, website, packaging and digital projects for growing businesses. I currently serve as Design Director at Foresight Communications Qatar, where my work includes brand strategy, annual reports, corporate communications, tender and presentation work, and creative direction across high-level government and corporate projects. My strength is the ability to move between strategy and execution. I can look at the wider business problem, identify what is actually needed, and then help build the brand, digital experience and supporting materials or systems around it. If you need someone who can take ownership of more than one isolated design task and help connect the bigger picture, let’s talk.

I design logos and full brand identities for founders and growing businesses. With years of experience in logo design and visual identity systems, I create considered, high-quality brands that feel calm and confident. My work is grounded in clarity and intention, ensuring your brand communicates trust before you have said a word. I specialise in branding for coaching, wellness, creative and premium product-based businesses seeking an elevated and thoughtful visual presence. Whether you are launching something new or refining an established brand, I help translate your vision into a cohesive identity that feels aligned and commercially strong. My approach combines strategic thinking with refined visual execution. Every decision — typography, colour, layout, mark-making — is guided by long-term brand positioning and genuine creativity rather than trends. Clients value my clear communication, discretion, and ability to manage projects smoothly from concept to final delivery. I love to work with clients who value collaboration, depth, and attention to detail. I offer a tiered approach starting with Logo Essentials $250 - $350. Brand identity projects typically range between $750–$2,000 depending on scope and deliverables. If you’re looking for a designer who will treat your brand as an investment rather than a quick fix, I’d be happy to connect.

Marketing. Sales. Customer Experience. Projects. Strategy. Execution. I’m a versatile marketing and business professional who brings together strategy, creativity and execution — with a strong focus on helping businesses attract customers, improve their processes and turn ideas into results. My experience spans digital marketing, email marketing, e-commerce, sales, customer experience, project management, content creation and business processes/SOPs. I’m comfortable working across different areas of a business, which means I don’t just look at one task in isolation — I look at how everything fits together. I can help with: • Digital & Growth Marketing – campaigns, content, social media, lead generation and marketing strategy • Email Marketing – campaign planning, customer journeys, retention and platforms such as Klaviyo • Sales & Customer Experience – sales processes, customer journeys, follow-up, conversion and creating a consistent customer experience • E-commerce – Product marketing, promotions and customer retention • Project Management – coordinating people, timelines, deliverables and moving projects from idea to completion • Content & Copy – social media, promotional campaigns, email copy and customer-focused messaging • Processes & SOPs – turning the way a business operates into clear, repeatable systems • Client & Stakeholder Management – communicating clearly, managing expectations and keeping projects moving One of my biggest strengths is being able to see both the big picture and the details. I can help develop the strategy, but I’m equally comfortable getting into the practical work required to make it happen. I’m naturally curious, commercially minded and solution-focused. When I see a problem, my first instinct is to understand why it’s happening, how it affects the customer or business, and what can be done to improve it. Whether you need someone to execute an existing marketing plan, manage a project, improve your customer journey, build a sales process, manage your email marketing or help bring structure to a growing business, I can step in and add value. If you’re looking for someone who can wear more than one hat, think independently and actually get things done — let’s talk.
