Today, modern businesses are racing to establish a distinctive brand identity. However, the reality is that creating an impactful design presence is often costly, time-consuming, and out of reach for many budding enterprises. Enter Deer Designer, an innovative company founded by Thiago de Carvalho. It presents an on-demand design service model that revolutionizes how businesses approach branding. Rooted in an affordable subscription-based framework, Deer Designer aims to democratize quality design services, making them accessible to global brands.
According to the 2023 Global Digital Design Market Analysis, a shift is apparent in the design industry. As businesses become increasingly digital, the demand for agile, cost-effective design solutions has skyrocketed. It is in this landscape that Deer Designer has anchored its value proposition, using its unique model to cater to over 3,000 brands across the US, Canada, the UK, Europe, and more.
Breaking the Mold with Subscription-Based Design
While traditional design agencies often require hefty retainers and protracted timelines, Deer Designer’s subscription model offers a fresh alternative. For a fixed monthly fee, businesses can access a plethora of design services, from branding and logos to comprehensive web design solutions. This approach ensures predictable costs and fosters an ongoing relationship between the brand and their design team.
“In the conventional setup, design often felt transactional,” Thiago de Carvalho passionately comments. “With our model, we’re building lasting relationships. It’s not just about delivering designs; it’s about understanding the evolving needs of businesses and being their constant creative ally.”
Moreover, the company’s model aligns with the observations of the 2023 Global Business Trends Report. As businesses shift towards subscription-based products and services for scalability and predictable revenue streams, the company’s approach seems aptly timed.
Empowering Diverse Global Markets
Deer Designer’s impact isn’t limited to just one region. Their footprint is now global, with a clientele spanning North America, Europe, and Asia. In a survey conducted earlier this year, nearly 87% of businesses that switched to Deer Designer from traditional agencies or freelancers reported higher satisfaction levels, citing improved communication, faster delivery, and superior quality.
“Every business, regardless of location or size, deserves world-class design. That’s our guiding principle,” states De Carvalho.
Additionally, subscription-based models are gaining traction as businesses navigate the post-pandemic world, seeking opportunities to minimize operational costs while maximizing value. The 2023 Global SME Growth Forecast predicts a 12% increase in the adoption of subscription services across various sectors, further propelling Deer Designer’s potential reach and impact.
Growth and Economic Impact
Companies that have collaborated with Thiago’s Deer Designer have witnessed significant growth and economic impact. Clients have expressed immense support for Deer Designer’s plans, emphasizing the benefits of real-time collaboration, rapid project turnaround, and expertise in American cultural nuances. The move to the US is anticipated to elevate the company’s offerings, especially for American clients.
“As a long-time client, I’m thrilled to support Deer Designer’s plan to relocate operations from the UK to the United States. This move will provide tremendous benefits in two major ways: it will allow for real-time collaboration and rapid project turnaround, with our working hours aligned, and it will give Deer Designer crucial expertise in American cultural nuances and local market knowledge. This will take their great work to the next level for US clients. Having their exceptional design capabilities onshore will be a huge advantage, allowing our agency to scale and better serve our American customers.” said one of their clients.
One of the hallmarks of Deer Designer’s success is the longevity of its client relationships. Some clients have been with the company since its inception five years ago in 2018. While clients can pause and reactivate their services, most remain active for several years, underscoring their value and trust in Deer Designer’s services.
Deer Designer’s Promising Vision
In a time when many companies faced challenges and closures due to the pandemic, Deer Designer experienced growth and expanded its team. Their foresight in adopting a remote work model since 2018 positioned it well to navigate the challenges of the pandemic. This proactive approach enabled Deer Designer to onboard talent laid off by other companies, further solidifying its reputation as a resilient and forward-thinking enterprise.
With plans to launch a dedicated arm in Orlando, Florida, given the substantial client base in the US, Deer Designer’s future looks promising. As Thiago de Carvalho envisions a multilingual setup to cater to diverse linguistic markets, the company seems poised to address an even broader spectrum of businesses.
Moreover, Deer Designer’s dedication to working with brands and assisting agencies in serving their clientele amplifies its commitment to reshaping the design landscape. This aligns seamlessly with De Carvalho’s philosophy of fostering genuine relationships that transcend transactional engagements.
