Bio
Hey there, I'm Laurie Baines, brand designer, and strategist. In my experience, many business owners start with a DIY’d brand, but get overwhelmed with the brand strategies needed for their next level of growth. I hear you! As a brand strategist and designer, I help entrepreneurs and small businesses align and execute an elevated brand that connects their vision and visuals, so they can step into a brand they are truly proud to call their own.
Having been on this journey myself, I know the very next step in front of you is the most important. As a graphic designer with nearly 30 years in corporate design & marketing with teams and agencies, I am on a mission to use my gifts and experience to quiet the stress and overwhelm of DIY with VIP Day Experiences completed in a day(s), not months. Let's Chat!

"As someone who runs a VERY small company and is just starting out, outsourcing was incredibly stressful. After working with Laurie, I wondered why it took me so long to recognize the value of having people work in their genius zone so I could work in mine."
💖 Sheela N. Mahajan, Founder of the Nonprofit Science Institute
"Laurie went to the vision that I had for myself – this is my future, my impact, my everything. She brought it to that level and I feel like it’s something that I’m working to step into. It’s bigger than me. It’s got a life of its own right now and that’s what’s inspiring."
💖 Pamela Dale, Founder, Find Your Fierce
"Laurie guided me on the right look and feel for my membership area. What was super amazing - she completed the project from state to finish in ONE day! Laurie is one amazing person to work with. She has a keen eye for design, is super organized and productive, and has a vast array of knowledge on membership software with the ability to work with a multitude of programs.
