Blueys Retreat is a boutique four star Resort. Our website required modernisation and a “new look” we were recommended to Janelle Gerrard. Janelle quickly grasped what we needed with the style and appearance we were looking for. She created a modern, clean and elegant design that rejuvenated our entire brand. The website look was fantastic and we got her to also carry that look through to our stationery, brochures and advertising etc.
We cannot recommend Janelle’s services too highly. She is a delight to work with and has an innate understanding of her clients’ requirements.

I would highly recommend Janelle Gerrard. She is professional, creative and passionate. She quickly solved the issue of getting the message across about our new product in a creative and straight forward way. Not only was the process painless and fun what she delivered was fantastic.

Janelle really got my story. I have always believed I knew what my story was, how it would make people feel, and what my purpose was, but Janelle put that into words, images and colours. When I saw her designs for the very first time, it actually took my breath away. It was like she married my story and feelings and my business evolved and came to life. Wow, I will always remember that feeling of sheer joy and relief that someone really understood the needs of my business. I just love it and so does everyone else, including my clients, so that is brilliant. Not just thank you in words, but from my heart.

Janelle provides innovative ideas in the development of graphic media, and is always willing to make suggestions on how to better present the concept you have in mind. She is highly professional in her work and I would recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional and fun person to partner with you with your brand, marketing and graphic design.

I’ve met thousands of business people over the past 8 years and 4 years ago I was lucky enough to meet Janelle. Whilst its been a while since we have actually connected in person Janelle still continues to add value to my community. For me this is the sign of a true giver…giving to others even when they (or anyone) isn’t watching. I have always found her to be extremely ethical and crazily talented….wacky sometimes but always with imagination and creativity. She is incredibly diligent in doing what she says she will do and makes real connections with her connections, she has done with me.

In one word is ‘outstanding’ at what she does. I have seen her work with a number of local Newcastle business’ and everything she touches is full of passion and enourmous creativity. She has exuberant energy. It’s contagious. Most importantly she is honest with her clients and gets the customer. She has the ability to transform your a business through her creative intelligence. I would highly recommend Janelle to transform your business.

Janelle is a highly skilled graphic designer and marketing consultant. I have engaged her consistently in my legal practice for all design projects for the best part of the last decade. With a long history in design and advertising, she delivers excellent work that is always sharp, fresh and contemporary. She has a quick turn around and is extremely reliable. She is also great fun to work with. Happy to (and do!) recommend her highly.

I have had the opportunity to observe Janelle’s work long before I engaged her for the brand development of my new real estate agency. My profession is all about appearances, quality and marketing ourselves and clients properties. Without any hassle, Janelle captured everything that I was looking for to represent my business in a professional, fresh and fun way. She was able to design everything from stationery, brochures, advertising templates and office
signage/ fitout.

Having dealt with Janelle in a previous business of mine I can thoroughly recommend her services as an agent for change. If you need to get your brand out front in the marketplace then talk to Janelle. She listens and acts as if she worked for you, so she really can get your message across in all forms of media.

I sought out Design Change when I first started my own buseinss, Perry Legal. Janelle
created a complete concept – from letterheads, to envelopes, web design, logo design, business cards and compliments slips. She gave excellent advice on logos, tag lines, and how to present my business. As a lawyer, our product is on paper, and Janelle was expert at transforming our paper into a real point of difference and set us apart from the rest!

Janelle has an amazing ability to listen, articulate and put into design our culture and our style. She is always thinking of how to market my business when she is in my company. All the while, having fun and a laugh. She’s a delight to work with and taught me how to look at my business from a clients point of view and then how to market to that effect.
