GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, WEBSITE DESIGNERS AND CREATIVE DIRECTORS

I'm looking for an experienced Graphic Designer to take care of the amazing branding, packaging and Rocketspark website design clients I've amassed over 20+ years of self employment.

Based in Auckland, I've a huge network of valuable clients all over NZ as well as a couple in Australia. I've worked really hard for my entire working adulthood to build this active network of clients who also actively refer me to their friends and colleagues.

No two clients or projects are the same, with the work I offer ranging from logo & brand design, to stationery & graphic design, to print & packaging design and website design using the epic, NZ-owned website hosting company, Rocketspark.

If you don't know much about Rocketspark or website design, I'm happy to offer introductions to the team and to get you up to speed with managing the  40+ Rocketspark websites that you'd inherit as part of this purchase, along with the commission that comes with them.

SO WHY AM I SELLING?

Firstly, it has not been an easy thing for me to decide to sell my business. It's been the one constant thing in my life from the age of 22 to now... it's seen me through moving cities, travelling & working overseas and having children... in many ways it's been my one true love. The thing that’s always had my back and been at my side. It’s literally been my life's work. 

However, I always felt I'd not yet experienced the "corporate creative" life and the hustle, collaboration, the highs (and the lows) involved. That opportunity was presented to me last year - somewhat unexpectedly - and I've really enjoyed seeing the skills I’ve amassed as a business owner-operator, translate into full-time employment managing a creative marketing team for a well-known, nationwide retailer over the past 9 months… While also continuing to run my business "on the side".

Safe to say, I’m at risk of burnout and one of these things now simply has to go so that I can get back to enjoying time with my teenagers before they fly the coup completely, and having that work-life balance that I protected so fiercely for all those years as a working mum.

THE OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU

Greenhouse Creative is a full-service design studio focused on brand strategy, web development and digital marketing. We design with purpose for seasoned entrepreneurs at all stages of their business journey. We enable brand growth through strategic design.

And we I say “we”, I mean me as the graphic designer and creative director, along with my team of talented contractors who work with me on an as-needed project-basis as copywriters, search engine optimisers, photographers, videographers and administrators and graphic design assistants.

Together, we can service any client who wants to nail their brand presence in print and online, in order to grow their business.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

The accountant has valued the business as it stands based on goodwill, database, and intellectual property. They have taken into account that I have been the key person in the business and have removed me from their equations. The business has therefore been valued at $135,000, including:

Not included in the valuation, but available by negotiation is:

  • Training & Handover: 30 hours of training and hand over, with me, either in Auckland or online, preferably within one calendar week, but this is negotiable

  • Photoshoot: A 2 hour headshots session with my photographer, so we can replace my face with yours online 😊

  • Business Mentoring: An experienced business mentor with Business Mentors NZ, I can include business mentoring to support you on your journey of new self-employment

LET'S CHAT
