→ WHAT I DESIGN
Everything I design
Whether you need one flyer or a whole new look, everything is designed to fit your brand, so your business looks the same wherever people see it.
-

Logos and brand identity
Your logo is often the first thing people notice, so it needs to work everywhere, from your shop sign to an Instagram profile picture. I can design a standalone logo, or a full identity with colours, fonts and simple brand guidelines, so you keep it consistent.
. -

Print
Flyers, posters, business cards, brochures, banners and signage that look professional and are set up properly for the printer. No blurry logos, no text cut off at the edges. I can arrange printing with local Hull printers too, so you get the finished thing delivered, not just a file.
-

Events
From awards nights to boxing shows, I create everything an event needs to look like it belongs together: the branding, tickets, programmes, banners and the graphics on the big screen on the night. I’ve been designing for events since 2018.
-

Presentations
Pitch decks, proposals and training slides that are clear, on-brand and easy to follow. I tidy up your content, so your slides back up what you’re saying instead of competing with it, and I can set up a template you can reuse yourself.
-

Social content
Branded graphics for your posts, stories and adverts, plus reusable templates you can edit yourself in Canva. It’s a simple way to make your feed look consistent and professional, even if you’re doing the posting or we are handling the posting.
-

Exhibitions and trade shows
Pull-up banners, backdrop walls, stand graphics, leaflets and screen content, all designed to work together so your stand gets noticed from across the room. I’ll set everything up to the right size for the printer, so it arrives ready to put up.

→ MEET THE FOUNDER
Hi, I'm Danielle Madden.
Nice to meet you.
I started dmads, short for digital marketing and design studio, because businesses deserve creative work that's actually good. Not rushed, not templated, not handed off to someone who doesn't know your brand.
You might know me from MADS or WebsByMADS; well, dmads brings both together in one place, making it easier to get everything you need without bouncing between two sites.
I've been working in marketing and design for over ten years, with clients ranging from solo freelancers to global brands.
Whatever the size of the project, you'll always deal directly with me, no account managers, no miscommunication, no nasty surprises.
Based in Hull. Working everywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Take a look at the FAQ or reach out anytime.
-
Yes, absolutely. I work with businesses right across Hull, Beverley, Hessle, and the wider East Riding of Yorkshire, as well as clients further afield.
-
Not at all. Everything can be handled remotely via video call, email, and shared documents. If you're local and prefer to meet in person though, that can always be arranged.
-
Definitely. A lot of my clients are small, independent Hull businesses. You don't need a big budget or a complicated brief to get started, just a clear idea of what you want to achieve.
-
No, dmads works with clients across the UK and worldwide. The Hull page exists because I'm proud to support local businesses, but location is never a barrier.
-
Once we've had our discovery call and you're happy with the proposal, most projects can kick off within one to two weeks depending on availability.
-
Social media management, graphic design, digital marketing, and Squarespace website design. Everything your business needs digitally, all under one roof.
-
Yes. If you already have a logo and colours, I'll design everything to match. If your branding feels tired, we can talk about a refresh.
-
