About / Philadelphia

John Swanson.

A freelance designer, editor and marketer — and the only person you'll work with, from brief to final files.

I work out of Philadelphia on graphic design, video, and the marketing that has to live after the files leave my machine.

Sport has been in the background since 2019. I started on the water. These days I race bikes. It doesn't show up as a theme in the work. It shows up as how I work: show up, go hard, leave it clean.

I take on graphic design — product covers, digital art, posters and ads. I do video editing for social and advertising. And I handle marketing — setting up and running Google Business Profiles and social accounts for people who need that handled without a twelve-person team.

The track record so far: 75+ product covers for OvaniSound, a direct-to-consumer campaign that doubled RyzaGrow's sales, and a trailer recut that found 7.7K views with no ad spend.

You'll see jrs. on my files and profiles. It's my initials, and it's how I sign the work.
