HR Consulting & Services for Graphics E-commerce Businesses
GullyHR helps online sellers of vectors, icons, illustrations and textures organise creation and review roles around pack-based products. We design HR processes so every pack has an owner, a checker and a support contact.
What is different about graphics
Products are usually sold as packs or sets, so a single order can contain dozens of files that each need to be consistent in style, size and format. Illustrators often build packs in series, which makes creative direction and a shared style guide as important as individual skill. Customers ask about file types, scalability and combining assets from different packs.
Where files include third-party material, contributor work or licensed content, who checks originality, approves terms and answers customer questions should be written into role definitions. Legal questions on rights and licences belong with your own qualified advisers.
Businesses this page is for
- Online-only creators and studios selling files direct from their own store
- Marketplace sellers of digital products with a small in-house team
- Curated libraries that license content from many contributors
- B2B online suppliers selling bulk packs and team licences to agencies and businesses
The challenge
HR challenges in graphics
Style drift inside a series
When different illustrators work on one pack without a lead, the set looks uneven and buyers complain.
Large packs and uneven quality
One weak file in a big pack can trigger a complaint about the whole product.
Format variants to maintain
Offering several file types multiplies the checking work. Without a clear owner, formats go out of step.
Illustrator availability across projects
Skilled illustrators are often shared between packs and client work, so schedules clash without a planning routine.
Workforce
Roles and skills that matter
- Illustrators and icon designers who produce assets to a shared style guide
- Art leads who set direction and approve each pack
- Pack checkers who review every file for consistency and format
- Bundle and catalogue staff who assemble sets and prepare previews
- Support agents who explain formats and combining assets

Measurement
What we would track

We record a baseline before work starts and report against it. We do not promise outcomes.
How we work
Assessment, design and implementation
Assess
We look at how the work runs today, using your documents, sample records and short conversations with the people who do it, and write down the gaps.
Design
We agree the process, owners, approvals and formats with you, sized to your team and your operating model rather than to a template.
Implement
We help you put it into use: briefing the people involved, setting up forms and calendars, and supporting a first cycle where that is in the engagement.
Review
We check what changed against the baseline recorded at the start and agree what to adjust or do next.
This is consulting and process implementation: we design and help introduce the HR processes, and your team runs them. If you want GullyHR to run parts of the work for you, such as hiring, payroll or day-to-day HR operations, those are separate services that are scoped and agreed separately; see our hiring and HR outsourcing services.
Working together
What we need from you
- A named contact who can approve decisions and open doors.
- Your current policies, role descriptions, org chart and process notes, even if incomplete.
- Redacted or sample records for the processes in scope. Please do not send individual employees' sensitive details through the enquiry form.
- Time with the team leads who run the work, agreed in advance.
- A view of which functions are in-house and which are outsourced, so the scope is right.
