Retainer Program
You can now take a sigh of relief knowing that you can have consistent, professional design work as you need it. As a retainer client, you can take advantage of my VIP consulting and priority hours to ensure that your business is running (and looking) as it should.
With my creative design retainer options, I become your creative go-to person, giving you the opportunity to utilize my services throughout the month, and on your own schedule.
You can have a creative director at your fingertips.
Design Overload
Scaling a business means you are bombarded with random tasks each month that require creating and sourcing graphics to attract your clients.
Between graphics for various social media platforms, launches of your new services and programs, and new products, like ebooks and courses….the list never ends.
Paying a professional, dedicated designer by their hourly rate ($150/hr) is going to add up fast.
By investing in a retainer with me, we’re building a relationship. I’m dedicated to delivering quality work so that you’re business can grow and you can depend on me to deliver that work, understand your vision, and be there when you need me.
My retainer program gives you the benefit of having an entire design, development and branding studio for priority hours each month without the overhead costs.
I get the work done more quickly than if you had to hire me for one-off projects. Designed materials are professional and on-brand. For those that sign up for a 12-month committment, you get a price break.
With my Growing Business and Enterprise packages, you even have access to VIP brand consulting via Zoom, meaning I’m available to guide you through the challenging branding decisions you face each week, figure out a game plan for upcoming launches, specials, and promotions you are wanting to do, and work out any challenges we may encounter (you know by know that it’s never IF something happens, but when).

Conistency
Enjoy the creative consistency that comes from using a single firm for all your marketing needs. Relax with the peace of mind that all of your marketing communication pieces will be unified and present your business or organization’s image in the best, most professional light.
No Overhead
With the retainer service, ProlificBanana is an extension of your business and you will have the resources available to get your advertising, marketing and design done right; without making space in your office, paying for equipment or added employee costs and benefits.
Consider the costs (time and money) you’ll save compared with hiring and employing an in-house designer:
- Full-Time Salary
- Benefits Package (medical insurance, dental, vision, etc.)
- Overhead and workspace (office, expensive hardware and software, payroll)
- Vacation and sick time and more…
The cost of employing a full-time designer can put an unnecessary strain on your “bottom line”.
Payment
The full retainer amount is due at the time of the contract signing. All work performed is itemized after each task is completed to show usage – you can access this information via the client portal anytime!
Terms
The retainer contract requires a minimum commitment of 6 months. 12 or longer month terms are also available. A 10% is deducted for 12-month commitments.
Leftover Projects
I do my best to make sure you stay up-to-date on the status of your retainer, but ultimately it is up to you to keep track of how many projects you have used. At this time I do not roll-over unused projects as I am keeping space available in my calendar to work on your projects.
If there is a situation where you’ll have significantly less work for a month or two with high-volume months later, we can discuss that on a 1:1 basis.
