Jen Scott

My name is Jen I am a Freelance Graphic Designer & Photographer based in Glasgow.

I work mostly for SME’s & start-ups (GooodBro – my latest project at this time), creating lovely new brands to make them shine!

 I’m qualified at Hons Degree level in Interior Design and Post Graduate Level (with distinction if I were to blow my own trumpet!) in Multimedia Communications. Having worked for the same fabulous company for 5 years, I decided to go it alone, after all you only live once! I’ve been Freelance for 9 years now and have never looked back!

 I work for myself, and that means that I can offer agency quality design at freelance prices. With me, you get me….you won’t get shunted around from one designer to another. You’ll get my undivided attention, my ability to excavate your brain and create exactly what you’re after, and my dedication and unwavering attention to detail!

 But more importantly, I have great ideas, I’m utterly dedicated & committed (not in a padded cell kind of way!) and I strongly believe that any business, big or small, brand spanking new or not quite off the ground yet, should have a brand worth shouting about.

Like a little Queen Bee, I work tirelessly to complete projects and keep my clients happy. I will work on almost anything, and if I can't work on it I will work with someone who can. I am very honest about my abilities and will never take on a job I know nothing about! I never outsource, sub-contract or pass you onto someone else, and if I make a promise, I'll keep it! Like a good little Brownie....without the woggle.

Branding & Logo Design

“What IS branding?!” you say….stop confusing me with lingo that means nothing to me.
You hear everyone talk about it, but what is it?! (aside from something cowboys do to their cattle) And most importantly, why do you need a good one?
Your brand is not your logo. However, your logo is the cornerstone for your brand. It is the most important stone in your companies structure and your brand will grow from this. Your brand is the ‘flavour’ of your business. “A brand is a person’s emotional response. It’s the individuals “gut feeling” about your company, product or service”. (Marty Neumeier, Brand Expert).
If your company isn’t creating the right emotional response from people, they may look elsewhere for a flavour that does!
So, whether you’re just starting out and need to set the world on fire, or have been around for a while but think you need a new ‘flavour’, I can help. I’d love to!

Graphic Design

It’s true what they say, image is everything. If you’re in business that is. Don’t let yours down with bad design. It won’t thank you for it.
“A business that increases its investment in design is more than twice as likely to see its turnover grow as a business that does not do so”
That’s a fact. This evidence comes from the Design Council’s research on the use of and attitudes to design among UK businesses and shows that design can have a positive effect on all business performance indicators, from turnover and profit to market share and competitiveness.
Did you know that for every £100 a ‘design alert’ business spends on design increases their turnover by £225? It’s true. You look great, you win more business.
Creating an identity for your business could be the most powerful tool you invest in. The way you are perceived, and therefore the way you promote your business design-wise, is absolutely crucial.

Testimonials

The level of creativity, support, input and patience we were afforded throughout the process of creating our new company website was first class. Jen’s professional yet relaxed approach to her job and the relationship she built with us made the journey easy and exciting. We have not hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for a bespoke approach to their company’s on-line presence. Although Jen hasn’t as yet worked with us in company branding, we wouldn’t think twice about engaging her should we have that requirement in the future. Thanks again Jen!

What can I say about Jen Harvey? Well she’s awesome, that’s what! We were looking for a way to brand the band and a simple google search revealed Jen’s name to us. I emailed her and a few other companies and in the end, Jen’s personality and service won us over. She then took a few various ‘thoughts’ we had about the logo and drafted a whole array of awesome and very suitable logos for us to choose from – way over and above what she had initially quoted us for. No adjustment was too big for her and her passion and enthusiasm for the project was warmly presented and warmly received. We’d re-use Jen in the future for any project, in an instant and suggest you do too! You won’t be disappointed!! Thanks Jen.

Jen has recently designed my new website and I love it. She very quickly understood what I was wanting and the end result is fantastic. Jen was recommended from a friend and I would not hesitate to recommend her again and again. She has a smart mind and artistic ability which is perfect for what she does. She has also helped me to get a better understanding of wordpress, a real fear of mine in a non threatening way which is vital in my job as a photographer. Thank you for all your hard work and patience.

I employed someone years ago to design me a logo and ended up paying a designer and doing it ‘myself’. They not only lacked artistic flair, but a vision to put my ideas down on paper! Once bitten, twice shy, I was nervous when I decided a rebrand was in order and contacted about 8 different companies, recommended to me by different sources. Jen stood out from the crowd of people I emailed with her first response! She also however, provided me with one of the more expensive quotes I received…which was slightly over my budget…and with my previous experience of logo designers, this made me nervous. What if it ended up being a repeat of the last time? But I told my head to shut up and I went with my heart. Thankfully my head was wrong! She took my random, incoherent thoughts and ideas, shook them up in her genius brain and nailed it on the first draft. Actually it was a struggle to choose which was my favourite! I asked for tweaks – could this be moved here, this there, asked her to try different colours…but, in essence, we reverted back to the same logo each time! I really could not be more thrilled with what she designed for me. It has the perfect feel, the perfect look, the perfect percentage of cuteness and femininity and was the perfect business investment. She IS a genius and if you have any sense…my advice would be to stop looking – you have found your logo designer.

I was recommended to use Jen Harvey for my company logo and stationery and she more than met my expectations. Jen took the time to understand the nature of my business and the image I wanted to project. After receiving the initial concept design we discussed and compared many minor changes, with Jen guiding me in the right direction. The final logo is just what I wanted – simple and professional, yet warm and trusting. Jen is a joy to work with and delivers outstanding results. I would have absolutely no hesitation recommending her to others, or commissioning her for other work – both of which I have in fact already done. Jen was recommended from a friend and I would not hesitate to recommend her again and again. She has a smart mind and artistic ability which is perfect for what she does. She has also helped me to get a better understanding of wordpress, a real fear of mine in a non threatening way which is vital in my job as a photographer. Thank you for all your hard work and patience.

Jen was recommended to me and from the very first contact I had with her, I was impressed with her honesty and complete focus in how she could help with my business. I commissioned Jen to redesign my logo and website. I can’t begin to tell you how fantastic a job she has delivered. I have the reputation amongst my friends of being a bit of a perfectionist, and am not easily pleased! However Jen surpassed all my high expectations and went way beyond! She is very creative and managed to pick up on what I wanted, even though I wasn’t even sure what that was! Jen has designed a brand for me which is now a total reflection of myself and where I want to take my business; a brand which I can proudly show off, and all the feedback I’ve had so far has been amazing. I would have absolutely no hesitation recommending her to others, or commissioning her for other work – both of which I have in fact already done.

Jen was recommended to me and from the very f Jen has recently designed our wonderful website! I had previously worked with Jen on the creation of a logo for another business so I knew that we were on the same wavelength as far as ideas were concerned. However, obviously a website involves a lot more aspects which need to be brought together and once again, Jen surpassed my expectations. From a half hour chat on the phone, Jen once again seemed to just “get” what it was we were looking for. When the first draft pages came through, we were delighted and really, didn’t have to change much at all. And it is all the small details which Jen has spent so long designing and perfecting (she is a perfectionist!) which really give our website the wow factor, even if I do say so myself. We have had so many compliments on the design. Jen is also a real star in training me and continuing to support me in updating the site myself. She has managed to teach me what I need to know on Dreamweaver (over the phone again!) and is always on hand to rectify the little gremlins which pop up when I do update the site! All in all I cannot recommend Jen enough. What more can I say but thank you!irst contact I had with her, I was impressed with her honesty and complete focus in how she could help with my business.

We had been trying unsuccessfully to get someone to refurbish and modernise our website for a ridiculous amount of time (2 years!), before we were recommended to get in touch with Jen. We had a look at her online portfolio which was just what we wanted – quirky and cool, but very slick and professional, and then made contact. At our first meeting, we were like the newly-single-just-out-a-relationship partner going on their first date in years (nervous, unwilling to commit, untrusting), but from the offset, Jen’s combination of honesty, knowledge and her calming and approachable manner made her a pleasure to work with. An uncanny knack of mixing borderline OCD, commercial awareness, attention to detail and astonishing artistic flare, has allowed Jen to create a very very special piece of work which we are absolutely delighted with, and importantly is helping us to secure more business than ever. Basically, Jen Harvey is the ideal person for us to be working with, and we will continue to do so!

Jen was recommended to me and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to others – in fact, I already have! I needed some Graphic Design work done in a hurry and instinctively, Jen picked up on my vision through the ideas I e-mailed to her. She listened to my feedback and delivered a very personal service with absolute devotion to detail. Although I have never met Jen, as we did all our communicating by e-mail, I feel as though I know her well as she seemed to intuitively assess my needs and nothing was too much bother for her: in this age of technologial mayhem, I felt like I was actually dealing with a human being. She is rare in her field in that she will not be satisfied until you are satisfied which made her a pleasure to work with! I was so impressed with my product that I commissioned her further to redesign my company logo which we will now use on all of our promotional and marketing material. Jen’s ideas are fresh and cutting edge – you will not be disappointed if you commission her services and your business can only benefit from her input!
