Creative Retainers

Ongoing design support — when you’re ready to level up.

Your brand isn’t a one-and-done project. It evolves. It expands. It needs fresh visuals to keep up.

A creative retainer gives you reliable, regular design support without starting from scratch every time. Whether you need monthly social content, rolling web updates, or just a designer on standby for the next “can-you-just” request — we’re here for it.

Think of us as your in-house design team. Just without the overhead.

Every retainer client benefits from The Pixel Process — our six-step creative framework that keeps your brand on track, on time, and always looking sharp.

The Pixel Process

1. Share Your Vision

You’ll tell us what kind of support you need — social, web, print, or a bit of everything.

2. Creative Consultation

We’ll map out how your hours will be used, what’s on your wishlist, and what we’ll prioritise each month.

3. Proposal & Pricing

You’ll get a retainer package tailored to your workload — flexible, clear, and built around your actual needs.

4. We Get to Work

We start creating. You get fast, reliable design — with consistent quality and full brand alignment.

5. Review & Refine

You’ll review designs as we go, with time for tweaks and adjustments built in.

6. Final Delivery & Support

Files are delivered, feedback is implemented, and we roll into the next month with momentum.

Why Curious Pixels?

You won’t have to reintroduce your brand every time you need something designed. We’ll know your tone, your style, and how you like things done — and we’ll deliver quickly, clearly, and consistently.

It’s like having an on-call creative — minus the desk and payroll.
