Sticky Branding, Made From Scratch
Through bold strategy and one-of-a-kind design, we cook up brands that stick—in all the right places. Like your dream clients’ minds, their conversations, and most importantly, their must-book list. Ready to design something delicious?
Helping you spread (the word) about your creative business
WITHOUT SPREADING YOURSELF TOO THIN 🧈
Sure, you could DIY your brand in Canva. You could also cut your own bangs. But some things just turn out better when left to the pros, don’t cha think?
We're here to help your brand stick in the hearts, minds, and browser tabs of your dreamiest customers for years to come—so when they're ready to book, buy, or rave to their friends, you're the first (and only) name they think of. That means less DIY stress for you, more sales, and a brand worth spreading the word about. ✨
THE MARMALADE DIFFERENCE 🍊
The secret sauce for brands that linger long after the first scroll
(LUCKY FOR YOU, WE’VE GOT THE RECIPE)
Real talk? Looking good on Instagram is one thing—getting noticed, shared, and booked out is another. Because when the right people land on your brand, they shouldn’t just scroll—they should stick around. Good thing that’s our specialty, huh? Here’s how Marmalade hits different:
MADE FROM SCRATCH
(NO ARTIFICIAL BRANDING)
Your business isn’t cookie-cutter—so why settle for templated branding? We start with the raw ingredients—your story, your values, your secret sauce—and mix them into a custom brand that’s as authentic and unique as you. Because blending in? Not on the menu.
SLATHERED WITH STRATEGY, LAYERED WITH MEANING
Good branding is pretty. Great branding is strategic. Ours is both. That’s why we design with intention, making sure every color, every font, and every detail connects back to your bigger vision and brand personality.
CREATED FOR IMPACT,
DESIGNED TO STICK AROUND
We partner with inclusive, purpose-driven entrepreneurs who care about more than just making a profit—they’re here to shake things up, make an impact, and leave their industry better than they found it. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place, friend.

THE SERVICE MENU 🍊
The difference between a forgettable and an unforgettable brand?
A little Marmalade.
You’re bold, zesty, and full of flavor—so your brand should be, too. (I mean, that’s just science).
Whether you’re a quirky Gen Z or millennial start-up, an inclusive beauty or wellness business, or a creative service provider carving out your own space, you deserve branding that turns heads and makes an impact. That’s where we come in…
BRAND DESIGN FOR NEW(ISH) BRANDS
The Signature Spread 🥄
For creative entrepreneurs who are done blending in, but still unsure how to stand out. We get it: Going bold can feel a little scary. But tweaking your Canva logo at 2 AM isn’t getting you closer to the brand you actually want. You need a custom brand that’s built for you, designed to grow with you, and packed with the kind of personality that makes people remember you.
BRAND + WEB DESIGN FOR INDUSTRY-LEADERS
The Whole Jar 🍯
For creatives ready to go all in on a brand and website that means business. So, if you’re still taking inquiries through Facebook DMs, manually sending price lists, and hoping potential clients don’t ghost you—it’s time for a major glow-up. A strategic brand and website tells your story, builds trust, and makes booking seamless so clients say "yes" without the back-and-forth.
DESIGN VIP DAYS FOR RETURNING CLIENTS
The Brand Picnic 🧺
For returning clients who need brand or website updates—without the wait. Whether it’s website refinements, brand refreshes, or design collateral, The Digital Picnic is your all-in-one, done-in-two-day design sprint. Just show up with your wish list, and we’ll knock it out while you focus on running your business.

Esthetician turned brand + web designer
DIY-ing your brand is a journey—one I know all too well. Before I was designing sticky brands, I was an esthetician, piecing together a logo in Canva, second-guessing my website, and wondering why it never felt quite right. Turns out, branding isn’t just a luxury—it’s what makes running your creative business easier.
A strong brand means less explaining, more attracting. The right visuals, messaging, and strategy make sure your dream clients get you instantly—so you don’t have to spend your days glued to Instagram, hustling for every inquiry. Instead, your brand does the work for you, leaving an impression that lingers long after the first scroll.
That’s what I help creatives like you build: brands that stick, grow, and take the not-so-fun biz bits off your plate.
READY TO COOK UP A STICKY BRAND?
You bring your vision—I’ll bring the secret sauce.
No stiff consultations or overwhelming design lingo here—just a fun, laid-back chat about your brand dreams (preferably with snacks involved). Whether you know exactly what you want or just know what isn’t working, we’ll figure it out together. Let’s make this easy, exciting, and oh-so-worth it.
