Creative Strategies For Small Businesses. Helping you step back, rethink, and move forward with clarity
Design Services
Most small businesses don’t have access to a creative team - but they’re expected to compete with those that do. Design services at Pause+Pivot Studio are built to close that gap. Combining product design, branding and marketing into one service. We help you create a business that looks, feels and performs at a higher level without the cost or complexity of hiring multiple specialists.

Customer Reviews
Steve Bateman,

'We run a small independent motorcycle business. When we moved into a brand new industrial unit, we had no idea how to set it up efficiently. Georgie designed a layout with a mezzanine, kitchen, workshop, store room and display space and even created a digital 3D model to make sure bikes could navigate into their space without difficulty. Ten years on, it still works perfectly and we wouldn’t change a thing.
As most of our sales are distance sales, building trust was essential. Georgie suggested using Google reviews and set everything up for us. We now have over 200 five-star reviews and many customers say this gave them the confidence to buy without viewing the bike first - A simple idea that made a huge difference, with minimal effort on our part'.

'Georgie designed my new website and I’m delighted with it. She was patient, flexible, and professional throughout the whole process.
She has a great eye for detail and creating the ‘feel’ of a website, including photo choices and colour palettes. Georgie took the time to understand and visualise my project and did research to help guide my decisions.
Georgie is friendly, creative, and incredibly talented — I can’t recommend her enough'.
