Introduction

Hi, I'm Karen and I am a Creative Director turned Freelance Branding Specialist and Graphic Designer. I feel rewarded doing what I do best, designing identities for everyone! Effective logos are so important for a successful business. I get a real thrill out of introducing new companies to the public. Having worked with the biggest and the smallest clients, I know that there is no difference in the passion that they exude. I love my work and take great care to watch out for the tiniest details. And I can communicate! But to be clear... I will take on any project on any platform, big or small with joy and fun for us both in the process. I will meet all deadlines (in fact am usually early) while providing the highest quality of designs for your needs. I am 24/7 customer support ready to answer any questions during the design process. I can design logos in my sleep! And I never ever use templates to speed the process. Time is so irrelevant when you are working on the computer, that sometimes I look up and I have been working three hours on a job I estimated for 1 hour.. But it's ok. That is my gift to you.

This has been my first experience working with a graphic design professional and Karen has set the bar EXTREMELY high. Karen takes the time to understand your project goals and the broader image, vibe, message, etc... you want communicated. From our initial conversation, Karen has felt more like a vested partner than a contracted professional. She has delivered everything asked, ahead of schedule and with quality that has exceeded expectations. What more could you want? I'll definitely be leveraging Karen's talents again, do yourself and your business a favor and work with her on your next project!!!

I hired KMS Design to create a 10-slide PowerPoint presentation. I provided the content and the original slides, requesting a design update and the addition of animations. She assured me she could fulfill this request, so I promptly paid a $125 deposit. Unfortunately she was unable to fullfill the request due to my new timeline but she immediately alerted me and refunded my deposit. Thank you,

Details: PowerPoint • 11 - 20 slides • One-time project • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc. • Remotely (phone or internet)

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My minimum for logos is $300. and if you want to keep researching looks past what the initial process, then it will be more. Usually it works out within the first blush. I dream that all of us will some day get what we deserve for our art.. this has really reduced the cost of Design. I hope you know that the Graphic Designers deserve much more.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We meet, chat on the phone or talk via text to get as much information and ideas as possible. I love to get visual samples that the client likes, or maybe inspires them... and them come up with a minimum of 5-10 initial looks.I will email the rough ideas to you. Then we go from there to fine tune and pick the best solution. Final art is completed upon payment.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I had the BEST training that my parents could buy in Northern California. SJSU was a highly credited Design school.
