Branding & Design

Lesley Miller has been hand lettering for years—teaching students, addressing envelopes for weddings, creating custom pieces for clients across the US, and building a loyal community of letterers through her classes and free resources. But her website had been DIY-ed since the beginning, and over time it had grown into something that no longer reflected the quality and care she brings to every single piece she creates.

When Lesley came to us, she was looking for a site that worked for her and her business.

For five years, Linda Maynard and Sue Lindsey built something beautiful under the name The Sublime Soirée. Their ministry called women to the table, to the idea that God had set a seat with their name on it, that belonging to Him was an invitation worth celebrating. Their book, their YouTube channel, their blog, their speaking engagements all flowed from that central, poetic image of God as the most gracious Host.

But the metaphor, beautiful as it was, required interpretation. And interpretation creates friction.

Carey Scott is a longtime MRM client and, even more than that, a cherished friend of our team. She is a prolific Christian author with more than 54 published titles—devotionals, Bible studies, and faith-based resources that meet readers right in the middle of anxiety, fear, and the everyday hard of life. Carey’s books have long directed readers to her website, and her corner of the internet has been a place where women who find her work can find a little more about her.

When it became clear that her existing website had reached the end of its technical life, Carey trusted us to bring it into a new season.

Shannon Dvorak was a previous MRM client several years ago, but opted some time ago to spend a season offline and let her old blog go. When she came back to us recently, Shannon wasn’t rushing to build a platform or launch new products. Instead, she was ready to steward the teaching, writing, and ministry God had been shaping in her life for years.

Our role was to help her translate that calling into a brand and website that was welcoming, aligned with her heart, and ready to support her ministry growth.

We have had the privilege of partnering with Tammy Gustafson—a speaker, author, and guide for women healing from betrayal trauma—several times over the last eight years. Tammy’s work is built on truth, not perfection, and her voice has become a steady anchor for women walking through some of the most painful chapters of their lives. With a growing platform, a new book release, and expanding programs, Tammy came to MRM this time with the desire to strengthen her personal brand and create an online home that reflects both her personal story and the brave path she leads others along.
