Boost Your Design Day
Hands-on design mentorship and creative support to help self-employed entrepreneurs craft confident, standout brands.
Struggling to Bring Your Ideas to Life?
As a self-employed entrepreneur or small business owner, creating your own marketing materials is essential—but it can also be challenging. You enjoy the hands-on approach, but sometimes you need a fresh perspective or expert guidance to make your ideas truly shine. That’s where Boost Your Design Day comes in.

I've attended two of Tania's Boost Your Design Days and they have been worth their weight in gold. I was stuck on how to market my business and Tania came up with amazing ideas for a new marketing strategy. Not only that, she worked with me to design a cool new business card and we created some awesome advertising material.
I'm now marketing like a boss and very confident and happy with the products Tania designed for me. The value you receive from Boost Your Design Days is phenomenal. I'm booking in again to re-design my website. It's a really great way to get the job done at minimal cost with maximal effectiveness.

Attending Tania's creative workshop was a game-changer for me as a solopreneur. Her guidance and suggestions were invaluable, and she quickly provided brand-aligned designs I could easily incorporate into my work. Tania’s supportive, hands-on approach made learning enjoyable and empowered me to take ownership of my projects.
She provided thoughtful critiques of my work, offering encouraging feedback that helped elevate my design and layout. When I need deeper assistance, Tania will be my go-to. I highly recommend her workshops for anyone seeking collaborative and creative support.

I like small groups. How many will be attending?
My studio can host 6 to 8 participants. You can choose to spend the entire 4 hours working on your project or pop in for quick support to get past a creative block. The cost is a flat fee of $89 + GST, whether you're diving into your project for the full 4 hours or just need a little help to keep things moving creativally.

Do you teach
me how to use Canva?
Not exactly. While I won’t be directly teaching Canva, you'll learn tips and tricks through a collaborative experience on the day. I use Adobe Illustrator and focus on teaching design principles.

Are there any hidden fees?
Each workshop day costs $89 for 4 hours, paid upfront via credit card via Stripe. GST + CC fees will be added. This is a non-refundable fee.
