💬 Kind Words

What it’s like to work with the NerdBird

Don’t just take my word for it. Here’s what women in business, and a few good eggs beyond, have said about working with me on their branding, websites and visibility.

⭐️ FEATURED

The results that say it best 

“We knew our strategy and results were proven — what wasn’t aligned was how clearly that came across. Hashtag helped us sharpen our positioning and articulate the level we operate at. The process was rigorous and strategic, not just a visual refresh. Within a week of launching, a Fortune 500 company approached us — they’d found us through Google and referenced the clarity and calibre of our brand. The business hadn’t changed. The perception had.”

Kirsten Cox  —  Perpetual Growth Partnership

“Jade gave me what I wanted and what I actually needed. Her skill as a designer was matched with her flair for knowing what works and how to make it work hard.”

Rosie Diver  —  The Thinking Woman’s Digital Coach

🪩 BRANDING + IDENTITY

Brands built to reflect the calibre of the work behind them.

“Jade fully understood me — my personality, my tone, my style — without me needing to over-explain anything. She just got it, and brought my vision to life with creativity, professionalism and care. The final result exceeded what I imagined.”

Ciara Ingham  —  Digital ADE

“Jade is THE powerhouse behind Brand as a business. Her understanding of how you need to be seen, her interpretation of your brief and her dynamic enthusiasm know no bounds. If you want your brand to sing… give Jade a call.”

Jaine Briscoe-Price  —  Photographer

“Working with Jade has been a breath of fresh air and an absolute joy. She’s creative, funny and a great business woman — and she really listens. She nailed our brand and exceeded all our expectations. She understood what we wanted from the outset, and the final outcome showcases exactly that.”

Kath Dickinson  —  Dickinson Associates

“Jade has listened to my story and heard more than I thought I had to say about my brand — and she’s brought my business to life in abundance! From my Discovery Call through to the awesome end result, every part was amazing. My business is definitely basking in the light of her glory.”

Judith Pegram  —  Kilt Couture

“From my very first call, Jade made me feel completely at ease. Starting a business is challenging — but Jade had all the answers I needed. She took the time to understand me, my background and why I wanted to start this business. I absolutely love every aspect of the branding she created.”

Kelly Dew  —  Construction Consultancy Services (NW)

“If you’re looking for a designer who’ll really get to know you and your business, Jade is the one. I wasn’t sure how I wanted my branding to look, but she asked just the right questions to understand what I do and who I need to reach. Endlessly patient, calm, and a joy to work with.”

💻 WEBSITES

Sites built around clarity, credibility and conversion.

Rosie Diver  —  The Thinking Woman’s Digital Coach

“I asked Jade to remodel my website, which now looks far more appealing and cohesive.

Amy Burnett  —  Visible Impact

“Jade took the brief on board and produced exactly what we were looking for — despite my going off at tangents and trying to ‘over-egg the omelette’! A great pleasure to work with on our website and branding.”

Ron Robinson  —  The Clover Club

“All the technical things behind the scenes have been taken care of without me spending hours figuring it out. Hashtag supports you every step of the way while creating a website that looks professional and fits your personal brand.”

✌️ VISIBILITY + SOCIAL

Showing up consistently and being noticed for it.

“Jade truly captures my voice and connects with my audience.

Because of the increase in visibility, clients and prospective clients have approached me, which is what it’s all about.”

🎸 …AND JUST LOVELY TO WORK WITH

Because how it feels to work together matters too.

“Jade is a dynamic force — she created our website within a very tight period but understood our requirements perfectly. She listens intently and asks all the right questions. Methodical and extremely visual, even with our very industrial content. To top it off, she’s a fab person, which always makes work a little sweeter!”
