A Monthly Creative Retainer for Businesses Across Nairn, Inverness and the Highlands

Most businesses reach a point where one-off projects are not enough. You get a great logo designed, a website built, a set of photos taken - and then you are left maintaining everything yourself while the world moves on around you. Your social media goes quiet. Your website gets stale. Your brand starts to drift. Nothing is actively broken, but nothing is actively growing either.

Pixel+ is the solution to that. It is a monthly retainer that gives you ongoing access to the full range of Curious Pixels services - design, web, social media, photography, video and more - for a fixed monthly fee. No new briefs to write every time something is needed. No wondering who to call. No explaining your brand to someone who has never heard of you. Just consistent, high-quality creative support from someone who already knows your business and is invested in its success.

Pixel+ clients across Nairn, Inverness, Forres, Elgin, Aviemore and beyond use their retainer in different ways depending on what their business needs that month. Some use it primarily for social media management and graphics. Others use it for regular website updates and SEO. Many use it for a mix of everything - a shoot one month, a campaign the next, ongoing web maintenance throughout. The retainer flexes around your business rather than the other way around.

If you have already worked with Curious Pixels on a project - whether that is a brand identity, a website, or a photography shoot - Pixel+ is the natural next step to keep the momentum going and make sure that investment keeps paying off.

WHO IS IT FOR

Pixel+ works for businesses at every stage of growth

Businesses who have just launched

01

You have a brand and a website but now you need to build momentum. Pixel+ gives you the consistent creative output to get noticed, build an audience, and start generating enquiries without stretching your budget on individual projects every month.

Growing businesses who are too busy

02

Things are going well but there is no time for marketing. Your social media has gone quiet, your website needs updating, and you keep meaning to get some new photos done. Pixel+ takes all of that off your plate so you can focus on the work itself.

Seasonal businesses in the Highlands

03

Tourism, hospitality and retail businesses across Aviemore, Nairn, Inverness and the wider Highlands live and die by seasonal peaks. Pixel+ ensures your marketing ramps up before each season, stays consistent throughout, and keeps working in the quieter months too.

Clients

04

You have had a project completed - a brand, a website, a shoot - and you want to keep the momentum going. Pixel+ means the investment you have already made keeps delivering, with ongoing support from someone who already knows your business inside out.

FAQ

Questions we get asked a lot

Pixel+ retainers are priced based on the level of support you need and the mix of services involved. Every retainer is built around your specific requirements rather than a fixed menu, so the best way to get a clear figure is to book a free consultation. We will talk through what you need and come back with a straightforward monthly quote with no hidden extras.
We ask for a three-month minimum commitment to start. This gives us enough time to properly get up to speed with your brand, establish a rhythm, and start delivering results. After that the retainer runs on a rolling monthly basis with one month's notice to end. No long-term lock-ins and no penalties for leaving.
Pixel+ is designed to flex around your business. If you have a big campaign, a product launch, or a seasonal push coming up, we plan for it in advance and make sure capacity is there. If one month is quieter than expected, we make sure the hours are used on things that move the needle in the background. Nothing gets wasted.
Not at all. Pixel+ is open to new clients as well as existing ones. If you are coming in fresh we will spend the first week or two getting properly up to speed with your brand before diving into the work. The onboarding process is straightforward and most new Pixel+ clients are fully up and running within the first month.
Yes. Your retainer is built around what your business actually needs - not a fixed package with services you will never use. Some Pixel+ clients focus almost entirely on social media and design. Others split their time across web, photography and strategy. We agree the priorities together at the start and revisit them regularly to make sure your retainer is always delivering maximum value.
A freelancer typically does one thing well - design, or copywriting, or social media. Pixel+ gives you access to the full creative stack from a single source. Design, web, social, photography, video, strategy - all connected, all consistent, all from one person who knows your brand as well as you do. No briefing multiple suppliers. No things falling through the gaps between them.
