Marketing Lead Flume

Sterre was incredible to work with on our brand design at Flume. She created a beautiful, thoughtful brand guidelines book that elevated how we present ourselves as a company.

Her process was super clear and collaborative - she used Trello to keep everything organised, met every deadline, and was always open to feedback without missing a beat. She really listened to what we wanted and brought fresh, creative ideas to the table that made a big impact.

I'd absolutely work with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for branding or design work. 10/10 experience!

Frequently asked
questions

Frequently asked
questions

What is creative strategy?

It's the planning behind your ads: which messages, hooks and formats to test, and why. Every new ad then has a clear reason to exist.

Who is it for?

Brands and agencies running paid ads on Meta, TikTok or Google that want new ideas to test, based on their own results.

Do I need to run ads already?

It works best with a few weeks of ad data. If you're just starting, we base the plan on your audience and competitors.

Do you design the ads too?

Yes, with the Strategy and design plan. You can also take the briefs to your own designer.

Do you write the ad copy?

Every concept includes the hook and angle. If you need full ad copy, we'll discuss it on the call.

Can agencies use this for clients?

Yes. We plan the creative for each client while you run the campaigns.

How long does it take?

It depends on your account and how much data there is. You get a clear timeline with your quote after our first call.

What happens after the plan?

You can take it to your own team, or continue with our monthly Strategy and design plan.
