FemmeFolio Design Studio – Mollie Mello, Amanda Grable, Stephanie Timmons

Hi FemmeFolio Design Studio, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
FemmeFolio Design Studio was born from the combined passion and expertise of three women—Mollie Mello, Amanda Grable, and Stephanie Timmons—who shared a vision of making expert-level design services accessible to women-led businesses. With 15 years of combined experience in marketing and advertising, we saw firsthand how both name-brand companies and small businesses faced unique challenges. We wanted to be the bridge that helps small, women-led businesses thrive.

FemmeFolio began as a creative outlet, something we pursued during a time when we were each looking for inspiration. What started as casual collaboration quickly blossomed into something bigger. The synergy we discovered working together was undeniable, and from that spark, FemmeFolio Design Studio was born.

Our mission is simple: to empower women-led startups and small businesses with affordable, high-quality branding, web design, and social media solutions. We’re here to turn your vision into a cohesive, recognizable identity that positions your brand for success. At FemmeFolio, your business’s unique story is at the heart of everything we do, and we pride ourselves on creating solutions that are not only stunning but also aligned with your budget and goals.

Let’s create something beautiful together!

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It hasn’t always been a smooth road, but that’s part of the journey we love. In the beginning, there were definitely challenges—especially on the operational side. We had to learn how to balance the creative aspects we excelled at with the logistics of running a business. The funny thing is, we already knew how to be incredible creatives; we just needed to create the right space to let that shine.

One of the biggest hurdles was building brand awareness. As much as we were confident in our skills, we realized that standing out in a crowded market wasn’t easy. That’s when we found our niche—working with women-led small businesses. It felt natural to align our services with a market we’re passionate about supporting, and once we honed in on that, things really began to click.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
At FemmeFolio Design Studio, we specialize in empowering women-led small businesses and startups through expert branding, web design, and social media strategies. Our work is all about creating cohesive brand identities that reflect our clients’ unique stories and connect deeply with their audiences. From logos and full-scale brand development to stunning, user-friendly websites and engaging social media management, we ensure that each project is tailored to the specific needs and goals of the businesses we support.

What sets us apart is our passion for partnering with women-led businesses, combined with our ability to deliver high-quality, agency-level designs at accessible prices. We know the unique challenges faced by women entrepreneurs, and we pride ourselves on being creative collaborators who work to turn visions into impactful realities.

For example, our work with Companion Travel Co. brought their brand to life with a cohesive visual identity and website that transports their audience from staycation to vacation. We crafted branding that captures the essence of their business, from custom logos to a user-friendly, elegant online presence. Similarly, for Blossom Brew Co., we created a vibrant and distinctive brand identity that shines through in every aspect, from product packaging to their online platform. Our designs emphasize the unique personality of each business, driving both engagement and recognition.

We’re most proud of the lasting impact we’ve had on our clients. Helping small businesses scale and succeed through thoughtful, strategic design is the most rewarding part of what we do. We’re known for our detail-oriented approach, ability to stay on budget, and creating work that’s not only beautiful but also rooted in strategy. This combination of creativity and business acumen is what truly sets us apart from others in the industry. We don’t just create for the now—we help businesses build brands that stand the test of time.

What matters most to you?
What matters most to us is helping women-led businesses stand out in a competitive market by offering custom, high-quality branding and design solutions. In today’s crowded space, it’s essential for businesses to have a unique, cohesive brand that resonates with their target audience. We believe that custom designs are not just about aesthetics—they’re about making a meaningful connection with the right people and telling your story in a way that’s true to who you are.

Why? Because we’ve seen firsthand how powerful it can be when a business feels confident in its brand. A well-crafted brand can be the difference between getting noticed or blending in, and we want to be the team that helps our clients shine.

When you work with FemmeFolio, you don’t just hire a design team—you partner with us. We collaborate closely with each client to bring their vision to life. We take the time to truly understand your business, your goals, and your audience, ensuring that every design choice is intentional and aligned with your brand’s essence. It’s this partnership approach that makes our work so rewarding, as we’re not just delivering a product, we’re creating something meaningful together.
