About me - Hollie Ellis - Brand Strategy & Design

Hi, I’m Hollie Ellis, a brand strategist, graphic designer and creative consultant with over 18 years experience.

My journey of becoming a Graphic Designer started when I was 17. I fell in love with Graphics at school and loved how you could creatively visualise a message.

Over the years I’ve worked in design agencies and with global brands, but I found the corporate world wasn’t for me, so in 2015 I founded my own design business – Hollie Ellis Design. It’s now my mission to support entrepreneurs in growing their businesses and beyond with brand strategies, graphic design services and creative consultancy.

I get a real buzz from seeing the designs I create give my clients epic results, like multiple 5-figure launches, sold out offers, and multi-6 figure months. To me, that is total job satisfaction.

I work with amazing entrepreneurs on a daily basis who are driven, ambitious and who want to make an impact. This is what makes me turn up every day to help them. They’re so passionate and positive about their businesses, it empowers me to do the same with mine. I’m honoured to be a part of my client’s business journey’s – to see them grow and succeed.

Here’s what I can help you with…

Brand Strategy

Branding is about clarifying the true essence of your brand – from your values and mission to what makes you different and lots more. Let me help you create an empowering brand so you can make a BIG impact!

Brand Design

Going through the brand design process is scary, but also very exciting. I will be with you every step of the way and will work closely with you to create a recognisable brand that is unique to you and your business.

Print & Digital Design

Not only have I created hundreds of print designs, I also have a background in print management. I can also help with social media graphics, PDF lead magnets, PDF workbooks etc.

Marketing Strategy

Once you have a brand strategy and design in place, it’s then time to look at your marketing strategy so you can start to attract consistent enquiries into your business.

I must recommend Hollie Ellis she came to me via the inspire network and her design and print work has been fantastic we will be working together for a long time to come I think! She is a great lady to work with for those among us who are non creative and need serious help in this area along with general advice on tons of other things! Highly recommended.- Faye
I'd like to recommend Hollie Ellis she's done a fantastic job sorting my husbands electrical business and my Mums playgroup out with branding / design work recently. I'll be passing more Hollie's way in future!- Claire
It has been a pleasure working with Hollie. She listened attentively and asked piercing questions which led not just to the birth of my brand but also to a new beginning for me.- Lindsay
I was looking for a new brand design for my revised business and Hollie was recommended to me. I was immediately at ease with her and impressed by her friendly and clear approach to business. I have not been disappointed! Her helpful, friendly and professional demeanour and the fabulous product she created for me ticked all the right boxes! She got exactly what I was trying to achieve straight away. I fully intend to use Hollie's services ongoing for my design and would 100% recommend her!- Zoe
