Small Businesses
Good design without the runaround.
You started a business. You’re wearing twelve hats and working on your thirteenth — and somewhere along the way, the website and brand you cobbled together at launch stopped keeping up.
You’ve come a long way. Your design should show it.

Built for How Small Businesses Actually Work
A brand that holds its own
Your logo works across business cards, signage, website, social, the side of a van if things go well. It should look intentional across all of it. I build visual identities that are distinctive, versatile, and built to last — not trendy for six months and then quietly embarrassing.
A website that earns its keep
Your website should be answering questions and building trust while you’re busy doing everything else. I build sites that are functional, accessible, and easy to maintain — with clear messaging and navigation that doesn’t make visitors work to figure out what you do.
Print materials you're glad to hand out
The stuff that ends up in people’s hands matters more than people think. I design business cards, brochures, direct mail, and event materials that are polished, on-brand, and print-ready — so you hand them over with confidence, not apology.
Digital touchpoints that look like you
Your email newsletter and social graphics are often the most frequent thing your audience sees. I design templates that are on-brand, reusable, and built so you — or anyone on your team — can use them without starting from scratch every time.
Need results fast?
Sometimes a months-long engagement isn’t what the moment calls for. If you’re ready to move and just need someone to execute, the Andiamo One-Day Intensive might be exactly the format.
Small Business Branding in Practice
Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce
A 10+ year partnership supporting brand evolution, website strategy, member communications, and ongoing design systems. Over the years, we’ve evolved the brand, rebuilt the website (twice!), and created a consistent design system that staff can maintain with confidence.
The One-Stop-Shop Advantage
Working with a single designer who knows your brand — across your website, your print materials, your event graphics, your email header — means everything looks like it belongs together. No briefing a new vendor from scratch every time. No explaining your logo for the fourth time. No visual identity that went three different directions because three different people touched it. Consistent. Coherent. Done right the first time.

Serious work.
Reasonable process.
Mild wit included at no extra charge.
I show up prepared, communicate clearly, and I’m not going to disappear for two weeks and reappear with something that missed the point entirely. You’ll know where things stand, what’s coming next, and what it costs.
What I’m actually good at is making the process easier — so you can stop putting this off and get back to running your business.
Ready when you are.
