Who Is She?
Hi, I'm Steph, founder of Marmalade Design, mum of two, tea enthusiast, and your potential new branding bestie.
I help growing businesses leave their DIY era behind with strategic branding, websites, and graphic design that help them stand out, attract the right customers, and feel ridiculously proud of what they've built.
Because here's the thing...
Most of the business owners I work with are brilliant at what they do. They've poured their heart and soul into their business. They've built a loyal customer base. They're getting results.
But their branding? Their website? Their social media?
Not quite keeping up.
Maybe they designed a logo themselves when they were first starting out. Maybe their website has been sitting untouched for years. Maybe they're cringing every time someone asks for their website link.
That's where I come in.
Why Marmalade?
Marmalade Design is named after my late granny's marmalade pot.
It sat proudly on her desk holding all her creative tools, and when she passed it down to me, she passed down a little bit of her creativity too.
The name also reflects how I approach design. Great branding should stick in people's minds and help spread the word about your business. A bit like marmalade on toast really.
What It's Like Working With Me
Working with me is a little different from working with a big agency.
You'll always deal directly with me, and I genuinely care about your business and your success.
Expect honest advice, clear communication, creative collaboration, and a healthy amount of enthusiasm for colour palettes, typography, and all the tiny details that make a brand feel special.
No confusing design jargon.
No disappearing for weeks at a time.
No cookie-cutter solutions.
Just thoughtful, strategic design tailored to your business, your goals, and the people you're trying to reach.
