Check Packaging off your List… in a Single Day
Without waiting weeks (or months) to get your designs.
Has your product packaging been bumped on your to-do list so many times that it’s almost embarrassing?
Or worse, have you simply deleted it so you don’t have to keep pushing it back (every day)?
It’s Time to Relish the relief of marking 'product packaging' complete on your to-do list
Watch competitors killing it because their packaging is already captivating your ideal customers?
(Hey! Eyes over here…stay in your lane!) 👀
Feel like packaging is stuck in a loop of endless revisions and second-guessing?
Feel trapped in analysis paralysis, worried about making the wrong choice, so you make no choice at all?
Do you…
Maybe you’ve lost sleep over missed market opportunities because you’re worried your packaging isn’t professional enough.
Or you’ve settled for less-than-ideal packaging just to get something out there?
And you’re tired of the back-and-forth with designers who don’t seem to grasp your vision?
Or, worst of all, you feel like your current packaging doesn’t do your product justice.
If you feel like the journey to perfect packaging is a never-ending marathon.
You're not alone.
In fact, it's a common belief that getting top-notch, custom packaging means having to wait weeks or even months, not to mention a hefty chunk of change.
Packaging Doesn’t Have to
✗ Delay product launches
✗ Take a billion-and-one phases to get done
✗ Cost you your entire marketing budget
But don’t beat yourself up if you’ve DIY’d, put packaging on hold, or didn’t mesh with your previous designer.
You’ve got bigger fish to fry!
But what if there was a way to craft packaging that’s not only quick and cost-effective but also perfectly captures the soul of your brand?
Well, that’s exactly what I set out to create.
I’m Kelley
Your Strategic Packaging Partner
With over 20 years of experience designing for powerhouse retailers like Dick's Sporting Goods and Kohl's, I've mastered the art of making products stand out.
My expertise lies in crafting packaging that not only tells a compelling story but also deeply connects with customers.
Strategic packaging design is often the missing piece for product-based businesses.
That's why I’m dedicated to creating designs that are not only visually appealing but also perfectly aligned with your brand's message and customer expectations.
My goal is to help your products sell repeatedly by making each package an ambassador of your brand's unique story and value.

Introducing

A one-day package creation session that takes your package from none to done and delivers your print-ready files in just 5 days.
No more back and forth, or months of tweaking (a word that isn’t a part of my vocabulary).
Forget the old drag-it-out design marathons.
Packaging Pronto is all about getting down to brass tacks in a single, power-packed day.
We’ll focus intensely on what makes your brand valuable so we can translate it into packaging that does more than just contain your product—it sells it.
Finally, Packaging That Stands Out!
You’ve put in the blood, sweat, and tears to turn your passion into an innovative product. Now, it’s time to share it with the world, and you’re ready to establish your product as the go-to in your category. You’re ready to increase your brand awareness. You’re ready to get your products seen.
Design that converts browsers into buyers.
Are you currently a *little bit* embarrassed to show shoppers your packaging? Most likely, it doesn’t represent who you are right now or the actual value of your product, and so it’s kind of a waste of shelf space. We want to change that for you. We believe your packaging can sell your product on repeat, 24/7.
Just Imagine…

The Packaging Pronto Process
Our Packaging Pronto process was developed to meet the fast timelines of small businesses so you never miss a sale.
Our process is collaborative. When you feel proud of your packaging, you share it. When you share your packaging, it becomes recognizable. When people recognize your packaging, they trust your brand and buy.
-
To get started, we dig into your product line and the goals for the business. On this call we go over your packaging wishlist and needs.
-
We share package recommendations and print quotes from a preferred supplier. Once approved, HPC will get the dieline files for your Design Day.
*Packaging Development is only available with Print Concierge service.
-
This is the day we focus on your packaging design. You’ll review the designs in real-time and provide quick feedback via email or a quick mid day call.
-
We take the approved design and set it up to print exactly as envisioned. Final files will be delivered within five business days of your Design Day.
-
After your Design Day, you get 30 days of email support to answer questions or for any minor edits needed for printing.

Creative Strategy & Direction: Dive deep into design strategies that work. We focus on what stands out, enhancing user experience and boosting your brand recognition.

Packaging Printer List: Our list of tried-and-true packaging printers so you can skip the reddit reviews and get your printing done.

Limited Availability
Here’s the thing…we’d love to help every client that comes our way, but we’re a small team (that’s what makes the process an intimate design collaboration), and that means we only have a limited number of design intensive dates available each month.
When you know you know, right?
So be sure to secure your spot as soon as possible to ensure your packaging design can get done in a day (and not three months from now).

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re still deciding if Packaging Pronto is right for you, I’m answering a few of the most commonly asked questions here.
-
You will need branding (including a logo, color palette, and fonts) and a dieline before you schedule your Strategy Meeting. If you don’t have these yet, no problem! We offer branding and sourcing support — just add-on a Mini Brand or Print Concierge.
-
From Strategy Meeting to File Delivery, the process takes 2-3 weeks. Adding on Print Concierge can take 1-2 weeks to process.
-
If you don’t have a dieline adding on Print Concierge is a great option. We’ll take care of getting the dieline and connecting you with our recommended packaging printer.
-
If you don’t have branding, we can create it for you — please select Mini Brand at checkout.
-
Yes! This is an investment for your business, so I want to make this as easy and painless as possible. To help, we offer a 3 payment plan for Packaging Pronto and a 4 payment paln for Packaging Pronto with Print Concierge.
-
We know this is busiest time of year for you! To help you feel confident walking into the new year all strategy calls and Design Days will be scheduled between January 1 and March 30 of 2024.
-
You will get an email in December with a link to choose the dates for your Strategy Meeting and Design Day. You’ll also get a link to a Packaging Questionnaire to fill out before your Strategy Meeting.
-
Packaging Pronto is a done-for-you, VIP Design Day where I design or re-design your product packaging. On you scheduled Design Day I work only on your project.
-
Yes, you will need to be available for your Design Day. You don’t need to be at your computer all day, but you’ll want to make sure you have your phone nearby to respond quickly to any questions and to provide feedback on the design around mid-day.
-
There may be some additional costs. The price of the Packaging Pronto and Print Concierge services does not include packaging printing. Also, you may want to order a packaging sample before production (we recommend this!), which our preferred suppliers offer for a small fee.
TESTIMONIALS
We wanted feedback on a blister pack design, and she encouraged us to pivot to a box.
She also knew all these technical things like including our address on the box, including the dimensions in both inches and cm, etc. I absolutely want to work with Kelley again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a packaging design or feedback on a redesign.
- Jill, All Hung Up
Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to revamp your packaging, together we can create something as bold and brilliant as the product inside.
Don’t settle for a first impression that’s “good enough”—let’s create something you’re proud to share with the world.
