Semi-Custom Starter Brand Identities
(coming soon!)

For those of you who are longing to dip your toes into the ocean of entrepreneurship, and would like to do so with some degree of confidence and order at lower budgets, I’m creating a suite of pre-made starter brand identities that I will customize with your business name and color palette.

Can’t wait to share these with you!

Starter Brand Sprint
$1,300

(+IVA for EU clients)

This all-in-one service is an incredible way to begin your business journey (or jump start when you’re stalling)!

Our comprehensive questionnaire and creative brief results in thoughtfully designed, deeply lovable custom Starter Brand assets like logos, color palette and typography selection.

But brands are built on much more than just visuals. Customers must also read and hear about your business!

And so often beautiful brand identities just sit collecting digital dust because clients don’t know what to say.

So I upgraded the Starter Brand service, which now comes with an actual Mini Messaging Guide that gives you language to use when you talk and write about what you do, so you can finally start your business journey with confidence.

And all this in one day.

Talk about starting with a bang!

The Level-Up Bundle

If you’ve been learning from experience in the market, have more clarity on your secret sauce and ideal clients, and you’re ready to level-up or pivot, I’ll put my years of brand and marketing strategy experience to work and give you the powerful tools you need for this next stage in your business.

(1) Brand Strategy & Messaging Guide

(2) Brand Identity Design (or styling refresh)

(3) Marketing & Content Strategy

Bundled or a-la-carte, these services provide you with clear, powerful brand foundations and strategic action plans to help you reach the next level in your business journey.

Bundles are custom, but often start at ~$6,000.

(I counted four mixed metaphors there…you?)

Brand Consulting & Audits

Starting at $375

(+IVA for EU clients)

Entrepreneurship can get lonely, isolating, confusing, overwhelming.

And when we keep our ideas and challenges spinning alone in our heads, mingling with our fears and limiting beliefs, our brilliant potential quickly devolves into perpetual second-guessing and inaction. But I’ve got you, friend!

I’m here to be your business bestie.

Your on-demand brand & marketing strategy consultant.

I’ll give you the support you need as you launch and grow, so you never again have to feel like you have to do it all alone.

Whether you need monthly check-ins to help you accomplish your marketing goals, quarterly reviews to evaluate initiatives and keep you on track, or something else entirely, you can use me as much or as little as you need to.

I’ll meet you where you are and take you where you want to go.

♥︎ Lovable Starter Brands for the Brave at Heart

Take chances, make mistakes and GET MESSY!

The immortal words of the iconic Professor Valerie Felicity Frizzle, PhD, (aka Ms Frizzle, of The Magic School Bus fame).

Why am I quoting Ms Frizzle?

Because, my friends, I don’t think we talk enough about how the elusive “clarity” we’re all seeking in our business comes from being IN the market, from testing things out, getting it wrong and iterating on what we learn. Again and again.

After over 16 years in marketing, working with Fortune 500 corporations, national US consumer brands, startups, NGOs, local businesses and soloprenerus, I know that, far from a one-time solution to a lack of clarity or market positioning, branding is an ongoing, iterative and powerful tool for business growth.

As you bravely step into the wild (wild!) world of entrepreneurship, it’s time to accept that we will not be able to fully avoid the discomfort of not knowing, no matter how much we analyze and plan.

But I deeply believe that if we embrace the beauty of the mystery, we can fall in love with this imperfect journey and actually have fun!

Yes, it will be uncomfortable AF.

And it will get messy.

You’re going to need a raincoat…

Here at Lovegood Studio love reigns supreme, and our values are central in everything we do.

  • This branding has been priceless.

    I didn’t know where to start with pitching my business, but your branding has given me the clarity and confidence to actually attempt to do it. It went to the root of my procrastination. I understand the service I am offering and who I am offering it to. I feel aligned with my purpose after working with you and ready to launch. Thank you for the care you put into the client experience. I feel it!

  • I’m already eager for my next project, so that I have the chance to work with Caro again.

    It is rare to find someone who both does incredible work and is a joy to work with. Carolina is a truly talented designer who makes beautiful things and is incredibly supportive and committed through the process.

  • This is literally perfect.

    You did such an excellent job and it just solidifies why I was so eager and excited to work with you! This is literally perfect. Like everything we wanted for our brand, but didn't know how to articulate and coordinate.

    — Rebekah and James, Nelska Bee & Lavender Company —

  • You made this new, unknown process so much smoother!!!

    Thank you so much Carolina!!!!! I love it. It has really been so nice working with you! You made this new, unknown process so much smoother!!!

    — Jennifer Klueppel, Jen’s Nourishing Kitchen —

  • From the first call I had with you, I knew I wanted to work together.

    From the get-go, you totally got what I wanted to express with my brand and helped me put it into words, colors, shapes, and forms. You were open to feedback and made suggestions that were a little out of my comfort zone but in the end made such a difference!

    — Michelle Dryjansky, mich n’ match —

Let’s start this thing together

Don’t worry, we can start small, with just a short (free!) call to see where you’re at
