Graphic Design for Sawston Businesses
A Sawston business exhibiting at a trade show one month and printing a technical data sheet the next often has nobody keeping the two consistent. We work from Hills Road, about fifteen minutes down the A1301, briefed once and delivering to a due date you can plan around, whether the work is a conference panel or a set of ad variants.

About us
Clickscope is a small design team based fifteen minutes away in Cambridge. Sawston's research and trade estate businesses use us for exhibition panels, technical diagrams and ad creative, on a retainer or project by project. We're a Cambridge digital marketing agency ten minutes up the road, so Sawston businesses get design from people who actually know the village.
Our MISSION
Clear the backlog, then keep the creative supply moving
We start by finding out where design is genuinely the bottleneck for a Sawston business, whether that's a conference stand or a set of ad variants, then agree the arrangement that fits. One inbox takes every brief, and each comes back with a deadline you can rely on.

Judged on what the creative earns
Our own preferences don't decide which ad sets survive, the account data does, and we make more of whatever it says is winning.
How we run graphic design for Sawston businesses
01 / How we work
Three ways to work with us
Retainer for a constant flow of work, fixed price projects such as an exhibition set, or overflow support alongside an in-house designer at busy periods.

Two rounds of amends, rarely both used
The brief being agreed upfront means most work is approved first time round, and a second round is always included as standard.

Editable files, kept in your own storage
Layered source files, editable vectors and organised exports go into your storage, with the licence status of every font documented.
Client Results
£25,300 of advertising spend became £891,000 in sales for one local client who had never run paid ads before. Campaigns performing at that level need a steady supply of fresh creative, which is the practical reason design and media sit together here.

FAQ
The questions you actually want answered
Do you have a studio we could visit in person?
Yes, at 9 Hills Road in Cambridge, roughly a fifteen minute drive down the A1301. Come in for a briefing, or we'll come and see the site, whether that's a lab or a trade unit.
Retainer or per project, and which suits a smaller Sawston business?
For occasional needs, per project is the cheaper option. A retainer pays off once you're commissioning most weeks, because of priority scheduling and skipping the brand relearning each time.
Do we get tied into a design contract?
No. Every arrangement, retainer, project or overflow, is rolling monthly, and 30 days' notice is all it takes to leave with nothing owed.
What number of amend rounds is included?
Two rounds are included, and most work clears first round because the brief is agreed upfront. If we misunderstood the direction, the redo is free.
Our audience is mostly other scientists and engineers. Does that change the design approach?
It changes the priority. Clarity and accuracy on a technical diagram or exhibition panel matter more than decoration, and we'd rather check a draft with your specialist than guess.
Which Sawston sectors do you design for most?
Life sciences and precision engineering, alongside trade and construction supply, are sectors we design for regularly here, from technical panels to signage.
Do you only design for Sawston businesses?
No. We work from Hills Road in Cambridge and also support teams in Ely and Bury St Edmunds. Being close to Sawston affects how briefs get handled, not who they are for.
Do you also do the website build for these designs?
Yes. Web design and development sit in-house alongside graphic design, so a template built for print or exhibition work can carry through to the site.
How do the opening 90 days of a design retainer usually unfold?
We review any existing brand guidelines, flag gaps once we get into technical formats or exhibition panels, and agree a briefing channel with same day acknowledgement.
How do you measure whether the design work is actually earning its keep?
For ad creative, by what the account tells us is winning, so we make more of what performs. For print and technical material, by whether it's used and signed off on the first round.
We couldn't find another agency doing design work for this specific market. Is that unusual?
It is, and it's an opportunity. Very little design content has been built for Sawston's mix of laboratory and trade audiences, so a consistent, well made system tends to stand out quickly.
