Welcome to the Collective
We’re Gemma, Cass, Ellie, and Amy – four business owners who get together to create standout branding and freelance web design in Manchester and the North West… that gets you seen. Because we know how important it is for your message to be heard. So let’s help you turn the volume up!
Looking for freelance web design in Manchester?
You’re in the right place. (Hurrah!)
Maybe right now you’re craving total confidence in how your business looks to potential clients, but you have no idea where to start? And you certainly don’t have time to keep going down the Google rabbit hole to figure out how to do it all yourself…. Nevermind the skills or expertise to have it looking exactly how you want it?
Ugh, we hear you.
It’s stressful, it’s overwhelming, and it’s stopping you from running the business of your dreams. The business you pour your heart and soul into every single day. The business that deserves to be out there in the world with branding that sings its socks off.
It’s time to create your masterpiece!

What do we do?
Based in Manchester and the North West (but covering the UK and beyond), our style is playful, colourful, and creative. By putting our 4 brains together, you get your very own chart-topping website with strategic design so you can show off your unique personality and book in those ‘perfect fit’ clients.
But that’s not all… Not only are we multi-award-winning (oh yeah!), we’re also a climate friendly workforce, meaning that as well as being pitch perfect at what we do, we fund tree planting whilst we do it! We won the Back Her Business Silver Award for our crowdfunding campaign, Empowering Women In Business in 2020, were accepted into the top 100 businesses in the UK by #SmallBiz100, anddd our collective effort won us the IPSE Freelancer Collaboration Award in 2021 for our signature offering: Brimful of Branding™. We are also recommended by Master Manchester as one of their Top Web Designers in Manchester.
What does this tell you?
You’ll be put front and centre in everything we do – and we’ll have fun doing it!
Why That's Her Business?

As a collective, our services cost the same as they would if you worked with each of us individually, but you get the bonus of collaboration and communication – not to mention people who LOVE working together! The best part is you’ll work with someone who seriously knows their stuff in each area of your project and we’ll all sing from the same song sheet to create a banging, branding package.
BRANDING FOR WOMEN BY WOMEN
We know what it feels like to wear all the hats in your business but not actually get anywhere. Our service is built around helping you feel confident being yourself in business and attracting clients you love, so you can sit back and crack on with what you do best.
FULL-SERVICE APPROACH
Imagine investing your time and money in professional branding, only to undo all the hard work with a glitchy DIY website, meh-level stock images, and words that sound blah… No more! Our branding and web design packages mean you get EVERYTHING you need and a website that works so you can shine bright like a diamond.
Manchester based
We work remotely across Manchester and the North West for businesses based anywhere in the world. The way we work means our fees don’t need to cover fancy office buildings and team away days. It’s just us and our Northern charm, and we can’t wait to welcome you into our girl gang (band).
