Questions about outsourcing graphic design
Why outsource graphic design to the Philippines?
Filipino designers work in fluent English, know Western brands and audiences, and cost well below a local hire. The time difference works for you: US teams brief before logging off and review in the morning, and Australian teams share most of their working day with us. Our Manila team has designed for overseas marketing teams for 15+ years.
Is it an unlimited design subscription?
No. Each plan reserves guaranteed hours with the same designers every month, so you know your capacity and who does the work. Revisions aren’t capped; changes simply use your plan’s hours. If you have a quiet month, tell your project coordinator and we’ll carry your unused hours over to the next month as a one-time exception, so this isn’t a standing rollover.
Can you do one-off jobs, like a logo or a single flyer?
We’re set up for ongoing monthly design work, so a single logo, a rebrand or a one-off flyer usually isn’t the best fit. If your team needs design every week or month, tell us what you design and we’ll recommend a plan.
How is this different from hiring freelancers?
You work with one project coordinator and designers who stay on your account and learn your brand, and a creative reviewer checks every job. From the Growth plan up, a backup designer trained on your brand covers leave. On Starter, if your designer is on leave, you choose: wait for them to return, or we assign an available designer.
Can we pay in Australian dollars?
Yes. Plans are priced in both AUD and USD, and Australian clients are invoiced monthly in Australian dollars.
Who owns the designs and source files?
You do. Final designs and editable source files are yours, supplied on request. We’re happy to sign your NDA, and your files are only accessible to the team members working on your account.
How do we get started?
Tell us what you design each month. Qualified businesses can start with a free trial task (up to one day of design on a real brief). Most clients then begin with a one-month paid trial, and we agree the ongoing plan with you after that.
