Why Birmingham

How we work with
Birmingham businesses.

Birmingham is the UK's second city and one of its most competitive SME markets, jewellery-quarter makers, professional services in Colmore Row, food and drink brands in Digbeth. Your site has to work harder here because the average competitor is already sharp. Birmingham clients brief us most often on fixed-scope brand identities and full marketing sites on the Astro stack. Remote-first, UK phone, GDPR-compliant, serving UK businesses since 2018, kickoffs and reviews on Zoom, async day-to-day, no billed travel.

Birmingham branding briefs increasingly come from second-generation family businesses modernising for a millennial customer base, the trick is updating the visual identity without erasing the trust the original brand carries.

We design brand identity for founders and marketing leads in Birmingham who want senior attention without the big-agency bill. Fixed scope, fixed price, written proposal before any commitment. Same team, same process, same 14-day-payout quality standard whether you're in Birmingham or anywhere else we ship.

Questions Birmingham clients ask

Common questions.

Do you understand the Birmingham SME market?

Yes, we've delivered brand and web work for Jewellery Quarter makers, Colmore Row professional-services firms and Digbeth food brands. Each has a different tone and a different competitor set, we don't apply the same template across all three.

Can you work without us coming to a Birmingham office?

That's the default. Zoom for meetings, Slack for async, weekly check-ins. We've never had a Birmingham client flag remote delivery as a problem, if you're used to agency face-time, the first call is the moment you stop missing it.

What's the lead time for Birmingham projects?

Typically 2–3 weeks out before we can start. Brand Identity projects run 4–5 weeks of active work; Marketing sites 6–8 weeks. Full pricing and timelines on /services, we give a fixed date on the proposal after the first call.

How much does a logo design cost in the UK?

A standalone wordmark from a credible UK studio runs £1,500–£3,500 for a proper concept-led process (research, two directions, two revision rounds, print and screen files). A full brand identity · logo plus colour, type, voice, templates and guidelines · runs £3,000–£8,000. Anything under £500 is usually a Fiverr template with the colours swapped. Our Wordmark package is £1,800, Identity £3,200, Full Brand from £5,500. Fixed scope, fixed price, written into the proposal.

Branding agency vs freelance designer · what's the difference?

A freelance designer ships a logo. A branding agency ships a system that holds up in 50 places · website, signage, packaging, invoices, social, uniforms · with documentation your team can apply without going back to the original designer. We sit somewhere in the middle: senior designer + strategist team, agency-quality system, freelancer-style pricing. For most UK small businesses that's the right shape · enough rigour to read credible, not so much overhead that a five-figure quote becomes six figures.

Do you build the brand AND the website?

Yes · roughly half our brand work is bundled with a Marketing site (£6,500). We run them sequentially with one discovery workshop and one project manager so the brand and the site land as one piece on launch day rather than two slightly mismatched halves. Identity (£3,200) + Marketing (£6,500) is the standard rebrand-plus-rebuild package.

Do I need a new name?

Usually not. Most of our clients keep their name and get a new visual identity. Naming is only needed when the current one is genuinely blocking growth.

What's the difference between a logo and an identity?

A logo is a single mark. An identity is a full system, marks, colours, type, voice, photography, templates. Small businesses usually need the system, not just the logo.

Do you trademark logos?

We don't file trademarks directly, but we design with searchability in mind and can refer you to an IP lawyer we trust.

Will you research competitors?

Yes. A competitive audit kicks off every identity project. The point isn't to copy what's working; it's to find the visual whitespace nobody else has claimed yet, so you look distinct, not derivative.

How many logo concepts do I get?

Two directions for Wordmark, two for Identity, three for Full Brand. This is deliberate. More directions = more noise. We research before we design and present directions we believe in, not a wall of options for you to pick from.

What file formats do I receive?

All final logos come as SVG (vector, infinitely scalable), PNG (transparent background, multiple sizes), and PDF. Always delivered in full colour, reversed (white on dark), and monochrome (black only). You own all files and source documents.

Can you design a logo to match our existing brand?

Yes. If you have a partial brand (e.g. colours but no logo, or a logo but no type system), we can design to match and extend what's there.

What if we don't like the concepts?

Revision rounds are included in every package. If after all revision rounds the direction is fundamentally wrong, we reassess on a call and run a third direction. We have never left a client without a mark they were happy with.

Can I start faster with a smaller package?

Yes · MVP Brand (£850 / $1,080 / LKR 73,000) ships a logo, palette and font recommendation in 5–7 days. It skips the brand guidelines and collateral, so it's best for founders who need a mark to launch with, not a full system yet.

Do you offer branding add-ons?

Yes · additional collateral pieces (£350+), packaging per product SKU (£650), extra revision rounds (£250), pitch-deck templates (£550). All billed separately and quoted on the proposal.
