What We Offer

Whether you're starting a new business or you've outgrown the brand you created yourself, investing in your branding is one of the biggest decisions you'll make.

A logo is one small part of a brand. The real work is understanding how you want people to see your business, what makes you different, and creating an identity that reflects that.

Strategic Consulting

Signature offering - Website in a Week(end)

A strategic Squarespace website: without the months-long timeline.

Website in a Week(end) is a focused 3-day design intensive for service businesses that are ready for a website that better reflects where they’re going.

We’ll turn your brand, messaging and goals into a polished, easy-to-navigate Squarespace website designed around your customer journey — so it doesn’t just look good, it makes it easier for the right people to understand what you do and take the next step.

Imagine how it would feel to have your website reflect where you’re going and SEO-optimized by the end of the weekend?

Brand Identity

Your brand is what people think and feel about your business before they’ve ever spoken to you. It’s the impression you leave through your logo, your website, your tone of voice, and how everything fits together.

Good branding makes your business feel clear and trustworthy. It helps people quickly understand what you do and decide whether you’re the right fit for them.

Together, we’ll build a brand that feels consistent and intentional, so you can show up confidently and make it easier for the right customers to choose you.

Web Design

Your website should do more than look beautiful.

Every website I design is built around clarity, trust and a seamless customer experience - not just good looks. It should welcome visitors, tell your story clearly, build confidence, and encourage people to take the next step.

Brand Strategy

A tailored approach.

Most projects combine several of these disciplines.

Some businesses need strategy before design. Others need a new website to support a growing brand. Some simply need an experienced creative partner to help connect the dots.

Rather than fitting your business into a predefined package, we'll build an approach that's tailored to your goals.

Sammi Atkins

Hi! I’m SO glad you’re here.

Guestlist brings together everything I've learned about branding, customer experience, and creative strategy. After studying Communications & Film and earning a diploma in Graphic Design, I've worked across communications and marketing: from customer experience research and brand strategy to digital marketing and advertising.

That breadth of experience taught me something important: the strongest brands aren't built through a single channel. They succeed when strategy, design, marketing, and customer experience work together to create something people genuinely want to be part of.

I can’t wait to hear about your business, your project, and your hopes and dreams. x
