WebsitePlanet is thrilled to introduce Meg Mothershed, Co-Owner of Mothershed Design Co. Meg shares the inspiring story behind the company’s founding and reveals the secrets to their success in helping small businesses stand out online. Discover how this dynamic husband-and-wife team crafts custom branding and web design solutions tailored to elevate small businesses in her exclusive interview below.

What is the founding story behind Mothershed Design Co.?

After years spent working as a graphic designer for agencies and in-house teams, my husband, Josiah was feeling frustrated and unfulfilled. Having been involved in every step of the design process, he knew what it took to run a project from start to finish and felt he could do it better. So, in 2016 he struck out on my own and formed Mothershed Design Co. shortly after we got married.

At the time Josiah started the studio, I was working as an in-house graphic designer at a nonprofit. While it was a great job as a recent graduate, it left me craving more. Having always wanted to own my own business since I was six years old, joining Josiah at MDCo. was a no-brainer! I quit my job and joined him in the business full-time in 2016 and we’ve never looked back.

What is your approach to Web Design that ensures success for small businesses?

Unlike other agencies, we don’t use generic, cookie-cutter website templates, farm out development to outsourced contractors, or hold your website hostage.

Instead, we craft completely custom websites, take on projects 100% in-house from start to finish, and hand over the reins to you once the site is launched! We even provide professional copywriting and essential SEO setup for your entire website.

Designed for small businesses looking to level up their online presence, our all-inclusive Website Packages include everything you need to represent your business professionally, communicate your value, and turn website visitors into customers.

What does your Brand Essentials package include?

The Brand Essentials Package is designed for small businesses looking to rebrand their existing business or build a new brand from scratch. This package provides everything you need to gain clarity on your brand while building a strong visual identity.

Our Brand Essentials Package includes logo design, brand messaging, and brand identity elements (color palette, typography, imagery, and graphic style), along with numerous pieces of brand collateral, all summed up in a handy brand guidelines document.

What other services do you offer?

Mothershed Design Co.’s focus is on branding and web design/development. We offer three tiers of Logo and Brand Packages as well as custom Website Packages designed for small businesses and startups. Discover which package is right for you at MothershedDesign.com.

Is there anything else about your work that you’d like to share that we haven’t covered?

Mothershed Design Co. isn’t your typical design studio. We’re not a big agency and we’re not flaky freelancers. We’re the best of both worlds: we’ve got the multi-faceted skills of an agency and the flexibility of freelancers, without the expensive overhead or unreliability.

We’re a tiny but mighty team that believes in the power of staying small. With too many cooks in the kitchen, your message can get lost in translation. We keep our operations small to ensure clear communication. That’s why we only take on projects that we can do using our own skills to provide the best service possible.
