This is one of those questions that an awful lot of companies will answer using as many “business-speak” phrases as possible. So, before you rush off to Google “visual communications” or “brand-awareness strategies,” don’t worry – we’re not going to do that.
Beyond the fancy lingo, it’s really not a complicated thing. A creative design agency is where you go for help with all the – you guessed it – creative aspects of running your business, organisation or event. You might be looking for digital support, such as video content, web design or social media management. Alternatively, you could be searching for promotional print-materials, such as flyers, posters or even business cards. Perhaps you need someone to write you an engaging blog post or a press release for media outlets?
The short answer is that a creative design agency is there to bring your ideas to life, with the goal of growing your audience and showing off what you do best – by letting us do what we do best! Win-win!
Obviously this is going to depend entirely on who you are, what you do and what your personal skill set is. You might be absolutely brilliant at organising a music festival, but not so hot on graphic design, for example…
Lots of small businesses and organisations use creative design agencies when they’re just starting out. From setting up a website and creating that all-important logo (that’s part of the “brand identity” you’ll hear agencies talking about), to coming up with interesting and exciting ways to get people talking about what you do, a creative design agency can help you make the right first impression.
Going forward, there’s plenty that a creative design agency can do to help take the pressure off, behind-the-scenes. Need someone to run your social media channels? We’ve got that covered! Want to run a campaign, with printed flyers, video content or paid adverts online? That’s sorted, too. Are you appearing at a local event and need a pop-up banner or even snazzy t-shirts to help you stand out from the crowd? Yep, we can help you there as well.
And of course, Little Bird Creative is not your average design agency. We’re highly experienced in the Arts & Culture sector and specialise in it because it’s our passion.
Whether you’re a museum looking for exhibition panels, a music group who needs merchandise designed or a start-up event searching for the whole shebang – logo, promo videos, social media, the whole works – we know your industry and we’re brimming with ideas! We’ve worked in the Arts & Culture sector for years and when we’re not working, we’re participating in it – singing in a barbershop chorus, visiting museums and heritage attractions and taking part in events. We do what we do because we love it, we understand it and we just want to do more of it! All of which means we can create high-quality work that is also budget-friendly. A zillion pounds for a squiggle? Not at Little Bird Creative.
So, now that we’ve hopefully demystified the whole concept of what a creative design agency actually is, why not get in touch and see how we could help you?!
Yes, yes, we know: the weather is being stereotypically British, of late, but Summer will be here before you know it. Is your organisation ready to make the most of it?!
These days, you can find anything you want online – not just quickly, but cheaply. Want a new website? Dozens of companies will promise you a sparkling site, speedily made and slim on the price tag. So, when faced with the promise of getting what you want – without breaking the bank – the offer may seem too good to ignore.
Ever had one of those days where all it takes is one person saying the wrong thing to totally push you over the edge? What about the reverse, where a kind word turns your mood around completely? The tone we take with others – and they with us – has a far greater impact than we might think. But what about your organisation’s tone of voice?
