We are looking for a creative and skilled designer to create an eye-catching book cover for a non-fiction title. The cover should effectively communicate the subject matter and appeal to our target audience. The ideal candidate will have experience in book cover design, a strong portfolio, and the ability to work collaboratively to ensure the final product meets our vision. If you are passionate about design and can deliver a professional and polished product, we would love to hear from you!

I am looking for a talented graphic designer or digital illustrator to recreate 4 book cover backgrounds, 2 presentation slide templates, and a digitial remake of a logo I have created and have been using thus far.

I already have the core concepts, layouts, and "vibe" established via AI/concept sketches. Your job is to "humanize" these designs—recreating them using licensed stock photography, professional photo manipulation, or original digital art so they are 100% unique, professional, and festival-legal.

The Project Includes:

4 Book Cover Backgrounds: Recreating the artwork for a 3-book trilogy (Perfect?, Pursued?, Possessed?) and a standalone thriller (The Silent Victim).
Note: I only need the high-resolution artwork/backgrounds. I will handle the final typography (title/author name) myself.
2 Slide Templates: Using the branding from the covers to create two background templates for a presentation.
Template A: An "Intro" slide featuring space for my author branding.
Template B: A clean "Content" slide template for text and images.
Style & Tone:

Dark, psychological thriller, moody, and atmospheric.
Key imagery includes a "Crow on a Vintage Typewriter" and shattered glass/silhouette themes.
Think: Noir, vintage, and high-tension.

Requirements:

Must use high-quality, licensed stock images or original illustration (strictly NO AI-generated final deliverables).
Ability to deliver layered PSD or high-res TIFF/PNG files.
Strong communication and ability to match a specific "vibe."

Future Work:
If this project goes well, I am looking for a long-term design partner for future marketing materials and series branding.

I have the AI- generated images and can provide them but I need to humanize them. Thank you.

• Can you humanize an AI-generated image?
• Have you ever created front, spine, and back cover designs for a book before?
• Describe your recent experience with similar projects

You will generate the complete logo and brand assets in the correct file types (.SVG, .PNG), based on the existing logo.

Summary
Curbside Ortho is seeking an experienced, strategic marketing and communications partner to support the development and execution of a scalable, multi-channel content and paid media strategy through a phased engagement model. We are specifically looking for a long-term partner who can work alongside our two founding partners to help build brand awareness, credibility, and patient acquisition for a virtual-first orthopedic practice operating across multiple states.

The right partner will combine creative execution with structured thinking, be comfortable working in healthcare-adjacent environments, and be excited to grow with an early-stage company that is investing thoughtfully in marketing as a core capability.

Company Background
Curbside Ortho is an early-stage, virtual-first musculoskeletal practice focused on improving patient access to high-quality orthopedic care. We help patients quickly connect with experienced orthopedic providers who can diagnose, treat, and coordinate care for common musculoskeletal conditions—without unnecessary in-person visits or delays.

Our virtual-first model prioritizes:
• Patient access (convenient appointments readily available online)
• Clinical expertise (Experienced Orthopedic Surgeons and APPs)
• Clear navigation from online search → scheduled telehealth visit
• Expanding insurance network coverage (Current in-network with Blue Cross)

How Are We Differentiated?
Patients increasingly expect same-day, digital access to care. While primary-care platforms (e.g., urgent care chains, general telehealth companies) meet basic needs, they are often ill-equipped to deliver specialty-level orthopedic care.

Curbside bridges that gap by pairing a virtual-first model with experienced orthopedic clinicians who can meaningfully evaluate musculoskeletal complaints, initiate treatment plans, and coordinate downstream care when needed.

Our marketing must communicate trust, quality, tech-enabled access, and legitimacy.

Engagement Overview
We are specifically looking for a partner to help with a 3 month sprint to accelerate our 2026 marketing plan by building structured, repeatable content frameworks (storyboards, templates, archetypes) for:

1. Consistent social presence consisting of organic and ad-based content (e.g., insurance in-network announcements, geographic expansion)
2. Short-form educational and authority-building video

The ideal partner:
• Has experience with growth-stage brands, startups, or healthcare-adjacent companies
• Is comfortable producing both creative assets and structured marketing thinking
• Understands how to balance brand building with performance-oriented content
• Can operate independently while collaborating closely with founders
• Is interested in a long-term partnership, not short-term gigs
• Experience in healthcare, telehealth, or regulated industries is a plus (but not required).

Scope of Work

Phase 1: Foundation & Asset Build
Duration: 3 months
Objective: Establish a scalable marketing process and expand content library.

1) Content Strategy & Storyboarding
• Collaborate closely with our team to refresh
• Core content pillars aligned to clinical, operational, and growth priorities
• Social media post archetypes (e.g., education, company value proposition, ease of use, trust-building)
• Static ad templates for company updated and milestone-based announcements
• Fully formatted, pre-configured, branded templates ready for immediate use in future posts and videos.
• Reusable storyboards for short-form educational and authority-building video
• Clear guidance on tone, compliance, and clinical accuracy

2) Content Development and Deployment
Expected deliverables during this phase will include (approximate):
• (10–15) social media posts
• (10-15) static ads for paid social and retargeting use cases
• (8-10) short-form videos (Reels, TikTok, Shorts)
• All assets should be designed for reuse and adaptation across channels.

Content to be deployed across:
• Instagram
• Facebook
• TikTok
• Website and paid social placements

Phase 2: Optional Ongoing Support & Iteration (as needed)
Duration: Flexible (month-to-month, as needed)
Objective: Maintain momentum and support key business milestones

As needed refreshes using approved frameworks
• Incremental development of new social posts, static ads, or short-form videos
• Support for time-bound initiatives (e.g., payer announcements, state launches)
• Periodic strategy check-ins to refine messaging and deployment approach
• Scope and cadence during this phase will be intentionally scoped and approved in advance, based on priorities and remaining budget.

Note
We are open to different engagement structures depending on experience, leverage, and proposed approach. Strong candidates may propose alternative scopes or phased pricing that still meet the objectives of the initial engagement.

To respond please include:
• A brief overview of your background and approach
• Relevant examples (links or portfolio)
• Experience with long-term or retainer-based clients
• How you typically structure collaboration and revisions
• Any questions or assumptions you would want to clarify upfront

I’m launching a Montana-made seasoning brand called HorHay’s 2:2:1 and am looking for a designer to create a strong, distinctive logo that can be trademarked as a design mark.

This phase is focused on logo design only (not full branding or packaging yet). The logo should feel ranch / heritage / premium, clean and timeless — authentic rather than cartoonish or trendy.

What I need,

Primary logo for HorHay’s 2:2:1 (Note to designer: the owners name is George and we know that HorHay is spelled wrong)
We are open to incorporating or developing a short, catchy phrase that helps explain the meaning of 2:2:1 — two of this, two of that, and one of something special.

Example directions include:
2 Parts This. 2 Parts That. 1 Part Secret.
Two This. Two That. One You’ll Remember.

These are directional ideas only.
This phrase should feel simple, memorable, catchy, and authentic, not clever or gimmicky. Makes someone go... hmmm...that's very cool.. :) Keep the phrase simple and structural

Secondary or simplified logo mark (for small uses such as jar lids or stickers)

Color and black & white versions

A logo that works well on seasoning labels, packaging, and digital use

The brand is family-owned and story-driven, rooted in ranch life and Montana. While there is a personal story behind the brand, the logo should remain symbolic and timeless, not a literal portrait or photo-based illustration.

Design direction

Strong typography (the 2:2:1 with colons is important)

Earth-tone color options preferred

Clean and legible at small sizes

Timeless and confident, not overly decorative

Avoid generic western clip art or novelty fonts

Deliverables

Vector files (AI, SVG, PDF)

Transparent PNGs

Color and black/white versions

Font details or font files if applicable

Timeline

Initial concepts within 5–7 days of kickoff

2–3 revision rounds

Budget

$500 fixed price

Open to adjusting scope slightly to stay within budget while achieving a strong, trademark-ready logo

To apply, please include

3–5 relevant logo examples (food, lifestyle, or product brands preferred)

Brief overview of your design process and timeline

Confirmation you can provide vector files

Success looks like: a logo that feels instantly recognizable, authentic to ranch culture, confident enough to trademark, and strong enough to build a lasting brand around. Thank you.

I’m seeking an experienced graphic designer to collaborate on a series of high-end neighborhood guides for select real estate communities in Central Florida.

These guides are concept-driven and editorial in nature — not template-based marketing pieces. Each guide will visually reflect what the community is known for (for example: championship golf, waterfront lifestyle, equestrian heritage), while maintaining a consistent, refined brand standard across the series.

This is an opportunity for ongoing work, starting with one guide and expanding to additional communities if the collaboration is a strong fit.
