Who We Have Helped:
You know your work matters—but your materials aren’t showing it.
You’re under pressure to impress donors, educate your community, and secure future funding… But your internal team is maxed out, your timelines are tight, and your materials just don’t reflect the quality of your mission.
Sound familiar?
You’re staring down a major fundraising campaign, exhibition, or report—and you don’t even know where to start.
You’ve tried working with freelancers or agencies, but they don’t understand donor psychology or print.
You want beautiful, strategic design—but you can’t afford to waste time micromanaging or explaining every detail.
You need to get materials ready before Giving Season or year-end budget deadlines, but time is slipping away.
You’re embarrassed by inconsistent or outdated materials and are worried they’re costing you funding.
Your communications team is stretched thin and no one has time (or design expertise) to make it look good.
You shouldn’t have to choose between doing good and looking good.
And you shouldn’t have to justify investing in something that helps fund your future.

Why We’re Different
We’re not an agency. We’re not freelancers. We’re not your printer’s overworked design team.
We’re a dedicated, senior-level studio that knows how to get it done—strategically, beautifully, and on budget.
Here is how we are different:
✔ We know print. With over 30 years in this space, we know how to design for donors and deliver to press. That means no production delays, no bloated files, and no last-minute surprises.
✔ No interns. No handoffs. When you work with us, you’re getting senior-level design and real communication—not a game of telephone with a bloated agency team.
✔ We understand your world. We’ve worked with nonprofits, museums, associations, and public health initiatives for decades. We know how to work within your approval systems, budget cycles, and board expectations.
✔ We care about your mission. We’re not just here to make things look pretty—we’re here to help you raise funding, build trust, and make an impact.
✔ Our clients come back—year after year. They trust us with their reports, catalogs, campaigns, and events because they know we make it easier, not harder.
✔ Need it fast? We also offer VIP Priority for urgent timelines, press check availability, or high-profile events. Ask about fast-track availability
We know how to help publications shine.
Laura Wood, Publisher, North West Georgia Living Magazine
“Andi & Mackenzie have creative eye and from the many years of experience, they are pros! After working with her for 13+ years, I never worry that the magazine will look superior. I can think of a number of times that I've asked for extra work or needed something done without much notice, and she always gets the job done.”
Avery, International Association of Arborists

She is up to speed on the latest print technology and trends and skillfully uses them to her clients’ advantage.” - Jennifer Guyette, Bennett Graphics

The Publication Perfect Package isn’t for everyone...
We’re passionate about helping publisher communicate with beauty and clarity. But you’re the right fit if:

It’s not the right fit if:
✗ You’re producing daily or weekly newspapers.
✗ You already have a full in-house design and editorial team.
✗ Consistency and brand integrity aren’t a priority.
