I had a false start with a uni course, and eventually went back to get an Art Degree...in jewellery & silversmithing! I had my own jewellery business for a little while, branding up that business myself. I also worked full-time in a marketing role and ended up working on Corporate branding projects.

After a few years I left this role and realised I had all the experience I needed to start offering branding services to small businesses. I understand the small business world from a product perspective, and now from a service and digital product perspective too.

When I was a girl I loved to spend hours doing calligraphy (I still remember getting a proper set of ink pens for my birthday once and a calligraphy practice book 😍). I also loved drawing anything to do with nature, and witchy vibe stuff!

I used to say that I got lost for a while, when I didn't do anything with these skills for a decade after I left school. But as I get older and (slightly) wiser I think there are lessons and experiences we have to go through in order to grow in other ways.

Hi, I'm Meg!

About Meg, and Lemon & Birch

HERE'S MY STORY

Over the last 7 years I've worked with bricks and mortar shops, online shops, artist and designer/makers, food businesses, as well as many types of service and digital product businesses. I understand the nuanced branding needs of each type of business.

And remember that calligraphy and drawing? Brand design with custom lettering and illustration is my bag!

Now, I offer a pay-as-you-go brand design process where you (my client) energetically and financially go at your own pace. I'm healing my relationship with time, and scarcity, privileged as I am to be able to do that.

It's important to me that my business feels like a soft, inspiring place to land to you. A light in the middle of a foggy landscape, a place where things are β€˜expected' of you less, and left to flow at the right time.

Much of this goes right against the grain of everything I've ever read about business, but the North Node in my birth chart is in Aquarius - if you know you know 🀣 #rebel

Branding Course

I have a shop full of resources. It's called the Tree House, and you're so welcome to come on in for a nosy! Buy anything from the shop to join the email community for exclusive content directly to your inbox. πŸƒ

This course called the Brand Design Roadmap will give you just enough info to get you started on your branding journey.

My branding process is a little bit different. It has a super flexible timeline and you can pay for each step separately, making professional branding accessible to more people. We communicate via voice notes, this is a No Zoom Zone!

There's a special place in my heart for Independent shops! I've worked with stores in Somerset, Hampshire, and Pembrokeshire to create evocative brand identities that shine IRL.
