DESIGN AS A SERVICE — UNITED STATES

Design as a Service
in the USA: Australian
Quality, Competitive Pricing

TDS brings award-winning Australian creative quality to US businesses — brand identity, web development, video, and photography — on a flat monthly subscription at a fraction of US agency rates. From USD $2,200/month. Brief your team end-of-day and receive deliverables by morning. No lock-in contracts.

US-SPECIFIC VALUE

Why choose TDS for design services in the USA?

💵
Dramatically Lower Than US Agency Rates

US senior creative agencies charge $150–$350/hour. A brand identity alone runs $20,000–$75,000. TDS delivers unlimited ongoing creative across every discipline for USD $2,200/month flat — no quotes, no overruns.

🌙
Overnight Turnaround

Sydney and Saigon are 12–17 hours ahead of US timezones. Brief at end of your business day — East Coast, Central, Mountain, or West Coast — and receive completed deliverables before your next morning starts.

🏆
Award-Winning Australian Quality

DesignRush Best Logo Design Agency 2024. IDA International Design Awards 2025. Australian design merges US brand thinking with European aesthetic discipline — creative output that competes at the highest level in US markets.

🔁
Unlimited Output, Fixed Fee

No scoping calls before every request. No change-order invoices. No per-revision billing. Submit as many creative requests as your US business needs under a single monthly subscription.

🎯
Senior Talent, Not Junior Offshore

TDS is not a freelancer marketplace or budget offshore platform. Every subscription is serviced by a dedicated senior creative director, strategist, and production team with verifiable track records.

🔓
No US Agency Contracts

US agencies often require 12-month retainer commitments and complex SOW contracts. TDS operates month-to-month — pause, upgrade, or cancel at any time, no penalty clauses, no legal process.

OVERNIGHT ADVANTAGE

How does TDS's timezone model benefit US businesses?

The US spans multiple timezones, all of which are significantly behind Sydney and Saigon. Here's the overnight production window TDS creates for each major US region.

US East Coast (ET)
5 PM ET → 9 AM ET
Saigon is ~12–13 hrs ahead. Brief at 5pm, deliverables before 9am next day.
US Central (CT)
5 PM CT → 9 AM CT
Saigon is ~13–14 hrs ahead. Full overnight production window every business day.
US West Coast (PT)
5 PM PT → 9 AM PT
Saigon is ~15–16 hrs ahead. Even more production time — briefs delivered comfortably overnight.

No US agency can offer this. The geography that seems like a limitation is actually TDS's most powerful advantage for American clients — more output, faster turnaround, no overtime costs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common questions from US businesses

How does TDS's pricing compare to US design agencies?
US creative agencies typically charge $150–$350/hour for senior design work, with brand identity projects ranging from $20,000 to $75,000 and website projects from $15,000 to $50,000. TDS delivers unlimited creative output — brand, web, video, and photography — for a flat USD $2,200/month on the Growth plan. That's less than the hourly rate of a senior US creative director for a single day's work.
How does the overnight turnaround work for US businesses?
The US is 14–17 hours behind Sydney (depending on timezone and daylight saving). This means US East Coast businesses briefing at end-of-day are sending work into TDS's next business morning. Saigon, at UTC+7, is 12–15 hours ahead of US Eastern time. Briefs submitted at 5pm ET are typically completed and returned before the US business day begins the following morning.
Is TDS pricing available in US dollars?
Yes. TDS offers USD-equivalent pricing for US clients. The Growth plan is approximately USD $2,200/month, Scale approximately USD $4,400/month, and Enterprise from approximately USD $9,500/month. Invoices can be issued in USD. All plans include unlimited requests, unlimited revisions, and no lock-in contracts.
What makes TDS's creative quality competitive with US agencies?
TDS has been recognised by DesignRush as Best Logo Design Agency Australia 2024 and received an IDA International Design Awards Honourable Mention in 2025. Our team includes senior creative directors, brand strategists, web developers, videographers, and photographers who have worked with ASX-listed companies, Series A–C startups, and global enterprise brands. Australian design culture blends US-influenced brand thinking with European aesthetic rigour — a creative perspective that resonates strongly in the US market.
