bold brand glow-up

For the Queen Bee founder who’s outgrown her brand and website

You're doing big things. Your brand and website should show it.

Your business has evolved, and it’s time to bring that evolution to life. In just 6 weeks (from kick-off to go-live), get a full visual identity and website, driven by a brand strategy that comes from your deeply rooted values.

Takes 5 minutes to apply. If it’s a good fit, we’ll hop on a quick vibe check.

You cringe anytime someone asks to see your website

You used to LOVE your website. You built it yourself (or hired someone on the cheap) when you were just starting your business, and you were so dang proud.  As well you should have been! That’s no small feat.

Now, though? 

When someone asks for your website, you find yourself bracing before you send the link. Maybe you throw in a string of caveats before hitting send.

"My website sucks."

"I'm embarrassed to show anyone my website."

Those are two sentences I’ve heard approximately a gazillion times on calls with founders at your stage. Because that brand and website you were once so proud of are no longer keeping up with what you and your company have grown into.

That gap is costing you more than you realize

Every time a potential lead or referral Googles you and sees a brand that doesn’t match the caliber of who they thought you were, it erodes their trust. And trust is the most valuable currency nowadays.

Enter: The Bold Brand Glow-Up

 

Every piece of the puzzle, built deliberately to help your brand stand out as the changemaker it really is.

  • We start by building out your Bold Foundation, the values-driven brand strategy that makes sure everything else immediately shows your dream clients they’re in the right place.

  • We translate your Bold Foundation into a visual identity that brings your deeply held values to life.

  • The final piece of your Bold Brand Glow-Up is a website that captures exactly how you want to come across to your audience, and makes it stupidly easy to hire you. My team will handle the design, messaging, and build — all in one.

6 weeks, from kickoff to go-live

Vibe check

We start with a quick call to go over the details and make sure we’re both excited about working together on this project. If it’s a good fit on both sides, you’ll sign a contract, pay your 50% deposit, and we’ll find a good date for our kickoff call.

Deep dive

We’ll officially kick off the project with a 90-minute deep dive call. I’ll ask you lots of questions to fully understand the brand we’re building.

(Warning: We get so deep in this call, my clients often call it “brand therapy”)

Brand strategy review

I’ll take the deep dive conversation and turn it into a fully built out brand strategy. About a week after our deep dive call, we’ll meet to review it and make sure we’re fully on the same page.

Intensive sessions

Depending on the package you choose, we’ll meet 3–5 weeks later for intensive sessions, where I’ll present the brand and/or website to you, get your feedback in real time, and make adjustments as necessary.

It’s a collaborative process built fully around what’s going to help you reach the next stage of growth with your brand.

Go-live

Finally, just a couple days after our intensive sessions, we’re ready to go live!

You’ll get everything built and ready to use, along with tutorials on how to update your website moving forward (no waiting around for me to fix things!)

Other branding and website agencies keep you waiting for months before you see any progress. I make the process quick, without sacrificing an ounce of the wow factor your brand deserves.

But don't take my word for it!

When I saw the brand, it felt extremely extremely aligned. You go on any little element of my website now, and you’re meeting me, you’re seeing my clients, you’re hearing about their real life success stories — the afters that my prospects can see themselves in.

Rachel gave us our backbone — a foundation from which we can communicate what we do in a succinct, clear way. The brand therapy session pulled out our true beliefs, and the website she created is the type of first impression we want to make. Now we’re eager to send people to our site instead of avoiding it.

We LOVE our new website! Rachel is excellent at distilling lots of information into articulate, clear writing that fully captured our tone. She has a methodical, organized system and is so pleasant, friendly, patient and helpful to work with ALL along the way.

Dolla' dolla' bills, y'all

I offer 3 simple packages that all start in the same place: with the Bold Foundation. Because a pretty logo or website without a clear strategy has exactly zero chance of helping you stand out.

Nectar: $5,995

The essence of your brand, distilled into a complete visual identity system

Honey: $11,995

Your full visual brand, plus a website that brings its sweetness to the right people

Hive: $19,995

The full shebang, so your brand shows up consistently everywhere

Includes:

  • The Bold Foundation: identity pillars, UVP, audience, messaging framework, voice and tone
  • Full visual brand: primary and secondary logos, color system, typography, patterns
  • A brand guidelines document your entire team will thank you for
  • Applied assets so it’s usable on day one including a social profile set
  • Every file format you’ll need, in different color combinations

Includes everything in Nectar, plus:

  • A full website (up to 5 pages), built on Squarespace and written and designed straight out of your strategy
  • Built to be found and built to convert
  • Tutorial videos to walk you through how to update your site
  • Set up so you can maintain it without calling me every time you need a new paragraph

Includes everything in Honey, plus:

  • A full website (up to 10 pages), built on Squarespace or WordPress (depending on your needs) — can add additional pages if needed as an add-on
  • All the templates you need: business cards, email signatures, social media templates, letterhead, swag
  • One consistent system across every touchpoint

Starting with Nectar costs you nothing but time. Come back for a website within 6 months and your $5,995 comes straight off the bigger project.

bold day of content

Want your content handled too?

Once your brand is built, the next question is how you’ll drive traffic to it.

Enter: The Bold Day of Content (aka BDOC), where you get a month of strategic content (in your voice!) in just one day.

Why hire me of all people?

Hey, beautiful human, I’m Rachel!

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: Why should you hire me over the approximately gazillion brand and web designers out there? (Or, let’s be honest: why not just do this with AI?)

I’ve got some impressive credentials, sure: 16+ years experience across brand strategy, messaging, visual identity, SEO, AIO, user flow, and UX.

But more importantly, I understand that when you’re building a business for a deeper purpose, you need a human-led brand that’s driven by your values and built to connect with the people you want to impact.

If that sounds like the kind of brand you want to build, I’m your gal. (Oh, and my clients say I’m a goshdarn delight to work with 😉)

Why is the price for the lowest package $6k for just a logo?

Easy! What I offer isn’t actually just a logo — not even close. It’s a full brand strategy built on your unique values and goals, and a complete visual identity system that brings that to life. That includes a logo, of course, but it goes so much deeper than that.

A logo without a clear strategy and full visual identity system is almost definitely a template with no chance of helping you stand out and connect with your dream clients.

Can't I just have Claude build me a website?

Honestly, you totally can. It’s pretty incredible what AI can do nowadays, and I use AI in my business every day.

But what Claude or any other AI tool will hand you is inherently generic. It’s built off of what every other website on the internet looks like, so that’s what you’ll get.

What I build you is a brand and website that brings your inner magic to life in the way only a values-led human (that’s me!) can.

Plus, you’re ready to scale to the next level. This ain’t the time for small potatoes approaches that’ll make your brand do anything but stand out.

Can I start with just a brand and do the website later?

Absolutely! If you start with Nectar (the brand-only package) and come back within 6 months to build a website, I’ll apply the full cost toward the larger package.

How much of my time will this take?

Much less than you probably think: 

  • 2 hours total for the Bold Foundation (deep dive + brand strategy review)
  • About 3–5 hours total for the intensive sessions
  • Minimal time to send me photos, logins, and all that jazz

Probably less than 10 hours total for everything.

What if I want a website without a rebrand?

That is something I’ll consider on a case by case basis. If I truly feel your visual identity is doing your brand justice, I won’t force you to redo it (of course not!). We can discuss the pricing adjustments to your project if that’s the case.

How do I know if my website should be on Squarespace or WordPress?

It really depends on your specific business, the functionality your website needs, and what you envision. There are some pros and cons to be aware of:

Squarespace WordPress
Less expensive to build, but with more limited functionality More expensive to build, but with wide range of functionality
User friendly, easy to maintain More complex to update, should be maintained by a professional
Never requires updating Plugins and themes must be updated regularly
Limited blog design options Custom blog design options
Best for service providers with straightforward website needs Best for founders with complex website needs
