Have your cake - Noble Ox

Your wish list

When people ask us what we can do to help, it’s not long before they’ve drawn up a wish list of branding, marketing, design, display and websites. They may even throw in a cuddly toy and the kitchen sink along the way, just in case. They get excited, we get excited. Then comes the question of budget! It’s not that Noble Ox is expensive; our rates are competitive and we are generous with our time. For the small and medium enterprises we often work with, however, money is always tight. So here’s the great news…

Your wishes can come true

Scottish Enterprise are publicising the By Design grant which ‘can provide up to £5,000 to improve the design of new or existing products, processes or services.  The grant could help towards designing and developing a website, or updating your branding and packaging, and much more…as long as they’re part of wider projects.’ The application process is refreshingly straightforward and people we know who have gone for the grant have been chuffed with the outcome.

Tempted? Then go for it

What do you have to lose? There’s a quick online eligibility process then you’re up and running. Once you’re under way, if you would like to talk Noble Ox, you know where we are. These are the specific areas we can help you with:
