Graphic design for growing businesses in the West Midlands and across the UK.
Your work is better than your brochure, your deck and your social posts make it look.
Sound familiar?
The knot.
The leaflet came from one designer, the exhibition banner from a printer's template and the social posts from whoever was free that afternoon. None of it matches. Buyers judge you on what they see before they speak to anyone, and right now the pieces make the business look smaller and less organised than it is. The work is good. The design doesn't show it.
Three signs it’s this
- 01 Your leaflet, your deck and your social posts look like three different companies made them.
- 02 Design gets squeezed in between other jobs, usually in Canva.
- 03 Every new piece starts from scratch, because nobody can find the last set of files.

The fix.
Mark Ingleby leads the creative direction, with more than 25 years of brand and campaign work behind him. We design the everyday pieces a growing business needs: the logo and identity, brochures and leaflets, decks and proposal templates, social graphics, adverts and exhibition artwork. Every piece follows the same rules, so the whole set looks like one company. You deal with the principals. There's no junior account layer in between.
What you get.
The deliverables, plainly listed. If it's not here, ask — we'll tell you honestly whether it's included.
- 01 A logo, colour palette and typefaces that every other piece is built from
- 02 Brochures, leaflets and sales sheets for print or screen
- 03 Presentation and proposal templates your team can edit
- 04 Social media graphics and ad designs sized for each platform
- 05 Exhibition stand artwork, banners and signage
- 06 Brand guidelines and print-ready files, with the source files yours to keep
How this one works.
No discovery phases that outlive the project. Just the steps that earn their place.
- 01 Brief We start with a conversation. What is the piece for, who will see it, and what should they do next? If you already have brand guidelines, we work inside them.
- 02 Concepts We show you first designs early. Concepts exist to be reacted to, so tell us what feels wrong. That tells us where to go next.
- 03 Refine Revision rounds are included, and the scope says how many. We check the details people miss: spelling, spacing, image quality and print settings.
- 04 Handover You get print-ready and web-ready files, plus the source files, yours outright. We can manage the printing, or send the files to your printer with the specifications.
Why this matters
Buyers often decide whether you're worth a call from what you've sent them, so the proposal, the leaflet and the LinkedIn post matter more than they seem. When they all follow one set of design rules, each new piece starts from what already exists. It's quicker to make and easier to get right.
Who this suits
- Growing businesses whose brochures, decks and social posts no longer match the quality of their work
- Teams buying design from several freelancers and printers who would rather have one place for it
- Businesses with a sound identity that need more pieces designed to the same standard
- Marketing teams that need extra design hands for a campaign, an event or a launch
When we would advise against it
- Buyers do not understand what you do or why you are different. Better design will not fix that, so start with Brand Strategy & Identity.
- You want a high volume of social posts at the lowest price per post. A template service will cost you less.

The questions everyone asks.
If yours isn't here, ask it — we answer emails within 24 hours.
Q1 What graphic design services do you offer?
Logos and visual identity, brand guidelines, brochures, leaflets and sales sheets, presentation and proposal templates, social media graphics, adverts and exhibition artwork. If what you need isn't on that list, ask. If we're not the right people for it, we'll say so.
Q2 How much does graphic design cost?
Launch, our first Creative plan, costs £1,995 one-off. It covers a logo, colour palette, typography, basic brand guidelines and the final files. Work outside the published plans, such as a brochure or social templates for an identity you already have, gets a written scope and price before you commit. The pricing page lists every plan.
Q3 Are you a local graphic design agency?
Yes. Our office is at Poplars Farm Business Park in Earlswood, Solihull, a short drive from Birmingham, Redditch and Bromsgrove. We also work with businesses across the UK, including clients in London, Devon and Lancashire.
Q4 Should we use a freelancer or an agency?
A good freelancer is often the right call for a single job. An agency earns its fee when several kinds of work need to look like one company: identity, print, digital and exhibition pieces. T40 sits in between. Two senior principals run every project, with no account managers in the way. Mark Ingleby leads the creative direction.
Q5 How long does a graphic design project take?
We can turn round simple pieces such as business cards in a week. A full set of sales materials usually takes three to four weeks, and a new identity two to four weeks. You get an honest timeline in the scope before we start.
