The Creative Partner You Wish You Had In-House
Welcome to 5AM LAB, a creative studio founded by me, Chanel (with hands-on support from my dog Adele). Drawing from my firsthand experience navigating the hurdles of startups, I've founded 5AM LAB on a mission to assist startup founders and teams in handling their marketing and design needs, allowing them to reclaim valuable time for their primary tasks (and maybe catch a few extra hours of sleep).
At the heart of 5AM LAB’s offerings lie problem-solving, adaptability, and transparent cost structures. My mission is fulfilled when, as my client, you can confidently affirm that I’ve made your daily work easier.
So, are you ready for your work life to get easier? Let's talk about your individual needs!
Choose
your path
In this path, you know your pain points but maybe not the complete solution – choose from four tailored solution packages and add that personal touch to align them perfectly with your needs.
If you precisely know the services you need, use the service configurator to craft a customized solution package, selecting from a spectrum of offerings that match your unique vision. Enjoy transparency in cost at every step.

What’s your challenge?
While no two challenges are identical, my four pre-built solution packages offer a solid starting point. Choose one that resonates with your objectives, then dive into personalization to align it perfectly with your distinct needs.
Our in-house marketing team lacks creative systems and templates which results in a lack of efficiency and focus.
We have irregular demands in different areas such as social media creation, graphic design and advertising design that can’t be covered by internal resources.
We struggle with setting ourselves apart from our competitors because we’re missing a strong brand identity that puts us on the map.
We lack the resources to fully maximize the potential of our visual and textual content and adapt it for all our communication channels.

Happy
customers
Chanel stepped in at short notice for a critical client project and supported us with her versatile skills and flexibility. In moments of internal challenges, she stood by our side in an uncomplicated and professional manner. We value her creativity and pragmatism as well as her proactive communication.
The fast and professional realisation as well as the clear communication from Chanel made the joint project a success. We would be happy to do it again!
The rebranding with Chanel was enjoyable, and her competent advice is invaluable. She skillfully guided me through the rebranding process, patiently listened to my ideas and inputs, and implemented them better than I could have wished for. I am extremely satisfied with the result and can highly recommend her services.
Companies I've Worked with
Any questions?
Hiring a full-time designer can cost up to CHF 90K annually, along with binding contracts and personnel expenses. The services of 5AM LAB and specifically the Design Subscription offers flexibility, allowing you to access my support as needed without paying for idle time – it's like having an in-house designer, but cost-effective.
Absolutely! While I specialize in collaborating with startups, agencies and small businesses, my services are adaptable to various business types and sizes. Let's explore how I can assist you—whether through my services or connecting you with the right expert from my network. Problem-solving is my priority, even if 5AM LAB isn't the ultimate solution.
Certainly! You can already personalize your solution package on the website, and during our intro call, we'll fine-tune it to fit your unique situation.
No upfront payment is needed. After our intro call, for projects above CHF 2’000, a partial upfront payment will be required upon contract agreement.
I'm Chanel, the founder of 5AM LAB. I handle the majority of projects. If additional resources are needed, I collaborate with trusted freelancers from my network, managing all communication and admin aspects to ensure a seamless experience for you.
