Curious about a day at Kemotion? Running a design and marketing studio is more than just creating websites. It’s a blend of creativity, strategy, and passion. Today, we’re giving you a glimpse into our routines and what fuels our creativity. Join us for a look behind the design agency!

Setting the Creative Tone

No two mornings are the same for us. We work remotely, so each team member’s morning looks a little different. Our founder, Kristina, and Julie, our project manager, work closely together on Mondays and Fridays. These days are dedicated to agency growth, catching up on weekend emails, and setting intentions for the week with our clients.

Since we’re remote, we hold a Google Meet call where the whole team is welcome to join. It’s a chance for anyone to hop on for questions, collaboration, or just to hang out. When we gather, we can work together on projects to ensure everyone’s aligned. Sharing a virtual coffee or tea is a great way to start the day!

Tips:

• Set clear goals to improve focus.
• Alternate between solo and team work to keep creativity fresh and aligned.

Crafting Ideas into Reality

After meetings, it’s time to dive into focused work. Our designers get to work creating websites, brand assets, and social visuals—where ideas truly come to life. Each designer brings their unique style, and collaboration keeps every project on track. Essential tools like Showit, Flodesk, and Canva help bring our visions to reality.

Tips:

• Take regular breaks to stay inspired.
• Use mood boards for design cohesion.

Telling Stories Through Content

To stay current, we stay active across social media. At Kemotion, content creation is all about engaging our audience. Our content team crafts blog posts, manages social media, and designs visuals that tell each brand’s unique story. We stay on top of trends to keep our content relevant, hold weekly brainstorms for fresh ideas, and balance creativity with analytics to drive results.

Tips:

• Keep a list of ideas for spontaneous inspiration.
• Track analytics to refine content.

Collaborating with Clients

Client meetings are essential. They keep us aligned with goals, provide an opportunity to share updates, and strengthen client relationships. Open communication keeps clients informed, and visual updates show project progress. Regular feedback sessions help ensure that each project aligns with the client’s vision.

Recently, we learned that some clients benefit from extra guidance on providing effective feedback. To streamline this, we set clear guidelines for project approvals, including explaining the reasons behind design choices and encouraging clients to ask “why” if something feels off. This approach helps us achieve the best possible results. These meetings typically take place on FaceTime, allowing for open and easy communication with our clients.

Tips:

• Use feedback to improve designs.
• Set agendas to keep meetings focused.

Recapping and Planning Ahead

As the day winds down, we recap achievements and set goals for tomorrow, helping us maintain momentum and stay motivated. We celebrate daily wins, share insights and challenges, and end with a quick team check-in.

A key lesson we’re embracing as a team is the importance of work-life balance. We’re passionate about our projects, but taking breaks fuels our creativity and allows us to step back and see the bigger picture. As a business owner, you likely understand that irregular hours can sometimes be unavoidable. One of the perks of remote and freelance work, however, is creating flexible schedules that suit each of us. By prioritizing communication and meeting deadlines, we find that flexible schedules work beautifully, allowing us to balance passion with structure and deliver high-quality work on time.

Tips:

• Celebrate small victories.
• Use a team channel like Slack to stay connected.
