FAQ

What does Somers Creative do?
Somers Creative is a UK-based design studio offering agency-level creative support for startups, small businesses and established brands. Services include brand identity design, video and motion content, creative direction, campaign development, and ongoing design retainers.
-
Who is Somers Creative best suited for?
We work with ambitious SMEs, founders, and marketing teams who want flexible creative support without the overhead of a full agency. Many clients come to us when they’ve outgrown DIY design and need strategic, cohesive brand visuals that scale with their business.
-
What makes Somers Creative different from a traditional design agency?
You get the best of both worlds - the personal collaboration of a freelance creative and the strategic thinking of an agency. Projects move faster, communication is direct, and the output is always tailored to your business goals rather than agency processes.
-
Do you offer ongoing design support or retainers?
Yes. Somers Creative offers flexible retainers that provide consistent creative output each month - from social content and campaign assets to video editing and brand collateral - ideal for businesses that need reliable, ongoing visual support.
-
Can you help develop a brand strategy or just the visuals?
Both. We help you define your strategy, brand positioning, messaging and tone before translating it into a cohesive visual identity. That means your design work isn’t just beautiful - it’s purposeful and aligned with your audience.
-
What industries do you work with most?
We collaborate across all sectors. The focus is always on helping purpose-driven organisations communicate with clarity and confidence.
-
How does the design process work?
We start with discovery - learning about your goals, audience and visual landscape. From there, we build concepts, refine collaboratively, and deliver final assets optimised for print, web and digital platforms.
-
How can I get started?
You can start with a free discovery call to discuss your project scope, goals and timeline. From there, we’ll put together a proposal outlining deliverables and next steps.
-
Do you work internationally or just in the UK?
While we’re based in East Yorkshire (UK), Somers Creative partners with clients worldwide. Projects are managed seamlessly through virtual collaboration tools, ensuring clear communication and on-time delivery regardless of location.
-
What are your typical timelines and pricing?
Timelines depend on scope - for example brand identity projects typically take 4–8 weeks; while individual video or campaign assets can be delivered faster depending on length and style. Pricing is either project-based or retainer-based, ensuring transparency and scalability for any size business. We are always happy to talk over the details of your project and give you a clear idea of time scales before we formalise any bookings.
