The good stuff, passed along.
Some of the best parts of building a business are the people and resources you find along the way. Over the years, I've found really wonderful people doing really wonderful work, along with tools and resources that make building a thoughtful business a little easier. This is where I get to share them with you.
worth sharing
People I trust, things I love, and resources worth knowing about.
A few people you should know:
✦ Good people ✦
Social media + marketing strategy
Frankie with Savoring Spoonfuls
Frankie is one of those people I trust wholeheartedly with the businesses I care about. She brings an incredible amount of thought and intention to the way a business shows up, helping turn the bigger-picture brand and strategy work into something that can actually be carried forward consistently.
Where I tend to build the foundation - your strategy, messaging, brand and website - Frankie is wonderful at helping you keep building from it. Her work blends thoughtful marketing strategy, content, community and ongoing support, with a very human approach to sustainable growth.
WE WORK WELL WHEN:
You want the brand foundation and support carrying it into the everyday life of your business - especially your marketing, content and community.
INTERIOR DESIGN + SPATIAL EXPERIENCE
Madeline with M.Rose Interiors
Madeline creates thoughtful, strategic interiors that help businesses stand out, connect with their customers, and leave an impression long after someone walks out the door. What I love about her approach is that she isn't simply designing a beautiful space, she's thinking about how that space supports the business behind it.
From the big-picture concept and space planning to finishes, sourcing, and final details, Madeline looks for what makes each business different and translates that into a physical experience people can't find somewhere else. Her work is intentional, distinctive, and rooted in how a space actually needs to function.
WE WORK WELL WHEN:
You're building a business with a physical space and want your brand and environment to feel like parts of the same story — from what customers see online to what they experience when they walk through the door.
have a project that needs a few different hands?
You don't need to figure out who does what or coordinate five different creative directions on your own. If your project could benefit from one of my trusted collaborators, tell me what you're building and we'll figure out the right combination of support.
better together
Things I actually use and recommend:
✦ Good things ✦
*the best* website platform
Showit - where almost every website I design comes to life.
Showit gives me the creative freedom to build highly custom websites without forcing every idea into a predetermined layout. It's what I use for my own site and the platform I recommend most often to clients who want something beautiful they can still manage themselves.
P.S. This is an affiliate link - you'll get your first month of Showit free, and I'll get a little referral credit if you decide to stick around.
Client Project Management
Outlign - a simpler way to keep client projects organized.
I've used Outlign on and off for my own client projects over the years, but even when it hasn't been part of my day-to-day workflow, I've continued recommending it for its simplicity, budget-friendly pricing, and genuinely thoughtful approach to managing client projects. I've recently started exploring it again myself, and they've added some pretty great features since I last looked!
