 bout Digital Creative SPARK

DC SPARK is a holistic agency based on the Central Coast NSW offering a complete solution covering design & illustration, marketing strategy, websites, SEO, and print.

I can help  you to sort all the tech and design stuff so you don’t have to do it all yourself.

The name Digital Creative SPARK has only recently been imagined in April 2021.  I, Belinda Lindhardt have been in small business operation providing design & web development services since 1996 (27 years) and in 2021 merged my previous client base with local business Paper Pens and Printing (based in Woy Woy) to provide the services that are on offer here in 2022.

“creation can only exist with a center spark from which it evolves”

The DC SPARK name comes from a vision that you always have to start somewhere, in a drawing that can be the first dot (or spark) on the page and from that the sparks fly into a creation. In biz life, the spark/energy can come from the owner, the company a place of inspiration or a person doing the task for the rest of it to appear. You are the spark but I hope we can also help you ignite your vision and dreams of your business. 

 

WHO WE WORK BEST WITH


Have you been in business for a few years and have been plugging away getting things done yourself or have you had service providers disappear from you in the past.
I hear this story very often…

 

Are you open to letting someone help you take back control of your business by either training you or your staff on how to do it or having a reliable provider that you can count on. ?

 

Working with me will mean we will be able find a way to solve the tech, the design, the strategy and come to a workable solution that is customised for you. I won’t sell you something I don’t need, I will work with you and your current resources my goal is to help you get it done rather than just keep it on your list to do.
It will not be sugar coated but always with kindness and with your best interest at heart.

 

I  love to work with those who have unique out of the box ideas, personalities and businesses (just a little be quirky) or who have very creative minds cause lets face it thanks what we are as well so we are kindred spirits.

THE TEAM

We have a small trusted team of people we like to work with for various projects where they get to pull upon their zones of genius and we work together for our clients.

  Why Work with Us - DC SPARK - Central Coast NSW

WHY WORK WITH US

Having been around the block a few times ourselves and working long term with many clients we understand that you really need to have many balls up in the air to run a business these days.  Having had burnout ourselves we also know that you can’t do it all, and having help along the way so that you can free up your time to do what you do best is crucial for moving forward and enjoying your business more.  

Our extensive experience, knowledge & skills means that you take advantage of all of our skills in one place rather than running around to various providers.

The benefit to you is that there is less running around briefing, finding files, and explaining what you need after a little while working together you know we got your back and it actually saves you time and money as there is less backwards and forwards (and less headaches) and to be honest its alot easier for us as well 🙂

As we get to know you over time, we can provide you with a strategic solution for where your business is heading, like a bit of a sounding board rather than just getting a task done off your to do list. We invite our customers to stay in contact with us about what they are up cause that will mean we can provide a better solution – makes sense. 

In saying that we also have plenty of clients who already have a designer they love working with but perhaps just need their website taken care of or other scenarios where they will just use us for our print connections, that is also totally fine by us. Finding a solution that works for you is our key motivation.

In brief, this means through our relationship you can get:

  • the design / visuals / branding stuff sorted

  • the digital & tech side of things such as website, marketing emails, social media, ebooks

  • the strategy of how all these work together for you (not our system) how it works for your resources your capabilities your budget, so you can manage it, maintain it (if you wish) or we can train your staff on how to do it and be there as a backup if needed.

Belinda from Digital Creative Spark gave us very prompt and professional service at a very reasonable cost when we needed a sign made for our coffee business. We were very happy with our sign and the quick turnaround. We also got a Coffee Banner through Belinda on another occasion and have always been very happy with her services. We highly recommend Digital Creative Spark.

I had the pleasure of working with Belinda in creating and re branding my new web site. Not only was she easy to work with but I was really pleased with the final result. In addition, her "after sales" service has been 2nd to none. I would highly recommend her services.

We have been using Belinda's graphic design and printing services since 2015!! She is so professional, you give her a quick work brief and she get's to work with minimal guidance. Very often she comes up with something that is a better idea than what we had! Also the DCS printing prices are very good value.

ART & ILLUSTRATION

We may have skimmed past that Belinda is also a professional illustrator and artist. Illustrations can be included in our services for businesses in the realm of branding, packaging and graphic styles as a way to distinguish your brand out from the plain vanilla marketplace.
