My design work has helped companies raise over $3M in private funding and led a crowdfunding campaign that exceeded its goal by 600%. If you need visuals that get people to act, that's what I do. I work primarily with B2B brands across sustainability, construction, and property development sectors, and bring close to a decade of experience across brand identity, marketing, and investor materials. Here’s what I can help with: ✅ Logos and full brand identity systems (colour, type, guidelines, assets) ✅ Pitch decks and investor presentations (structure, storytelling, visual polish) ✅ Marketing and campaign creative (print/digital ads, social, email) ✅ Social media systems (templates, carousels, infographics) ✅ Reports, whitepapers, and editorial design ✅ Website and landing page design (UI layouts, hero graphics, icons) ✅ Packaging and product visuals I can work from a rough brief, a half-finished deck, or just a conversation. I'll tell you honestly if the structure needs work before we touch the design. I keep projects moving with clear communication, realistic timelines, and structured feedback rounds. No disappearing acts halfway through the job. Message me with your brief and I'll tell you within 24 hours whether I'm the right fit. -Mark.
