FAQ
How is this different from Design Pickle or Superside?
We match you with PM-led dedicated designers who work exclusively on your brand – not a rotating pool or credit-based subscription. A dedicated PM owns intake, prioritization, and delivery so you don't manage every request. Same people every week, month-to-month flexibility, free replacement guarantee.
What does the PM actually do?
The PM runs the workflow: receives requests, clarifies scope, confirms timelines, prioritizes against capacity, manages feedback rounds, and packages deliverables. You submit work; your dedicated team handles execution and handoff.
Can we scale up or down?
Yes. Engagements are month-to-month. Add designers as volume increases or reduce capacity when priorities shift. No long-term contracts.
What turnaround can we expect?
Typical ranges: ad creative variations 1–2 business days; landing page sections 2–4 days; deck refresh 2–5 days; brand system updates 3–7 days. The PM confirms timing at intake.
How fast can we get started?
Once we confirm scope, brand standards, and access, we typically present vetted options within a few days. Onboarding is designed for fast ramp-up.
