With my help, you will…
Stay Happy
Stay happy while you grow your business
I won’t bullshit you, running a business is a lonely place.
You make all the decisions, you shoulder the burdens, you decide the future of everyone in your team.
If you don’t play it right, it will eat your life. You’ll lose your happiness in a hole the shape of the work you used to enjoy. I know this, because I’ve let it happen, more than once.
I will help you stay happy while you plan and grow your business. I keep you accountable to yourself and the things you want from life, so you go to work in the right frame of mind to create the future you want.
Get Money
Want to know where your next projects are coming from?
The world runs on money. It’s the system we live in.
The good thing is, there’s lots of ways to make money. In my time in business, I’ve found lots that work and lots that don’t.
Your skills, your experience and the way you think makes your business unique. We’ll find ways for your business to make money that work for you, so you can design at a price that you deserve without that yucky selling feeling
On the way we’ll likely find new ways that don’t work, that’s just business. I’ve got ways to deal with that too 😉
Make Impact
With great power comes great responsibility
We’re super fortunate to do what we do for a living.
Being a designer, owning a creative business, it’s fun! Through a mixture of study, practice, hard graft and luck, we’ve put ourselves in a position of influence.
It’s up to us what we do with it.
I got into design to do good work for good people. If you’re good people, I’ll help you create a creative business that contributes to the the lives of the people and the communities around you. To use the influence you’re building to have a positive impact on the world.

Hullo I'm Orwell
I’m a designer. I’m a business owner. Freelancing since 2011 and starting my first business in 2016, I’ve been at this a while.
I learned the hard way that knowing design doesn’t mean you know business. But we can learn to take control of our businesses and make money in a way that works for our lives and our happiness.
I’m here to make sure other creative business owners don’t have to go through what I did. By sharing my experience I steer you through the challenges, support you towards your goals and provide accountability to keep you on track.
I am a board member for charity Stepping Stones for Families, I give design and marketing masterclasses to students for Young Enterprise Scotland and have been a guest lecturer at Glasgow’s universities and colleges.
I give you what I wish I had in the first years of my business, a mentor who’s been there and done it, to help you stay happy, get money and make impact.
