Brand and Website Designs that Captivate and Convert
freedom sounds pretty great, right?
What if your website did so much of the heavy lifting that you could take more vacations, dust off that creative hobby of yours, and spend more time with the people who spark joy?
Sure, you could choose to do all of those things right now, but if you took a week off (yes, completely unplugged), would you still get inquiries? Could you still make sales? How amazing would it feel to be able to continue to make money while you prioritize rest and play?
I'm here to tell you it's possible with the right brand and website strategy and implementation.
You do want your website to work tirelessly for you while you kick your feet up, right?

Working with Emilie was a dream. She worked fast and efficiently to build content and copy for me to book my 3 day retreat. She supported me as I had to make changes to my marketing and helped me come up with ideas to best reach my target audience. She joined us at the retreat and was a pure joy to work with, she was an open book and resource to all the attendees.
"I highly recommend working with her."

I hired Buoyant Marketing for copywriting and web design, and I have to say, Emilie knocked it out of the park! Emilie really took the time to learn my target market, and the copy she came up with was AMAZING! I’ve received so many compliments on the web design and copy. Even during some personal setbacks on my end, that slowed down the final delivery process, Emilie was always super sweet, and understanding. She really exceeded expectations, and is an expert in her field. I’m SO happy I hired Buoyant Marketing.
"My website finally feels finished!"

Working with Emilie on copywriting for one of my many business ideas was such a treat!! From the start - Emilie was so invested in learning my ideal client, and how to emotionally connect with them on a level most copywriters can’t. She was able to speak to their hopes, their fears, and add in a little bit of wit for the perfect accumulation of words that connect and convert. If you’re looking for a copywriter that focuses on connection, and emotion, and has a true passion for words."
"Look no further than Emilie!"
Our medium is in the digital space.
Have you ever had that feeling where all the stars in the universe seemed to align and you are inspired like never before? It's like some sort of sorcery, but it's really your "zone of genius."
Design is our zone of genius. We pull inspiration from architecture and fashion, calligraphy and textile works, fine art and industrial innovations. We believe wholeheartedly in the symbiosis between form and function -- strategy, design, and application.
We're unapologetically obsessed with great design.
Every once in a while you'll find a few extra graphic design or illustration needs on your to-do list: printed materials, social media templates, client magazines and pricing guides... We can help you cross items off your list and incorporate your brand aesthetic seamlessly.

We know that a website without intentional copy is a website that does not serve anyone well. It is the backbone that supports carefully-crafted brand and website design. We have spent years studying and practicing the art and science of conversion copywriting and have formulated a method for writing website copy that really wows. We can take care of this for you in just a single day.

We will begin your custom experience with a brand strategy deep dive. This will allow us to get to know your grand vision for your business, who your dream client is, and what sticking points you have witnessed in the past.
We will curate an intentional font and color palette and design a logo suite to support your growth goals. With this, we will create a comprehensive brand guidelines document that can be shared with your team to promote consistency.
We will build you a one-of-a-kind website from scratch that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but is functional and makes the conversion (shopping/booking/subscribing) process seamless. We try our very best to apply current web accessibility standards, removing potential barriers for prospective clients.
