Hi Emily,

I founded Honeycomb eight years ago on the belief that businesses not only deserved top-notch branding and marketing but a creative partner to walk alongside them. Too often it felt like agencies would churn and burn through clients leaving them on their own to maintain the complex systems they created.

I set out to create a client experience that was as hands-on as it was empowering for the businesses who work with me. It’s true that my clients come to me for design, but I hope to leave them more empowered to think strategically and holistically about their businesses and with all the tools they need for success.

I’ve been fortunate to be a part of 100 business journeys so far and now I hope to be part of yours. You in?

Meet Your Brand Coaches

We're Honeycomb

We could wow you with some words about how we’re an award-winning design firm, or try to woo you with lots of stats from our clients’ wins, but we’re not going to do that because we don’t see ourselves as simply designers or strategists.

What you’ll find here isn’t an agency, it’s a partnership with a small (but mighty) team of people who care deeply about your success.

Since we aren’t a traditional marketing agency we can provide a white-glove personalized service for every one of our clients. Think of us as your concierge brand advisor, because that’s who we are.

Brand in a Week is part brand bootcamp and part design sprint.

A collaborative experience where you tell us the vision for your brand and we bring it to life in ways you could never imagine. Say goodbye to overwhelm and hello to a brand you want to shout from the (virtual) rooftops.

Here's how we do that:

Brand Boot Camp

Our foundational prep work is both a reflective exercise and an opportunity to expand the vision for your business. We use the foundational prep work to develop copy, strategize, and develop your new brand.

Brand Workshop

Before we kick off, we’ll meet virtually for a 1-hour workshop to answer questions, discuss the vision for your brand, and set expectations for our week together.

Brand in a Week

Our 5-Day Sprint where we design, develop, and pass off your new brand to you.

Nervous about someone else bringing your vision to life?

You're not alone, but don't just take it from us. Hear from our clients:

I was nervous at first going into it, that our vision for the website and brand would get lost in translation. However, once we saw that very first draft, all of our fears went out the window and it was smooth sailing and excitement from there. Working with the Honeycomb team was a wonderful experience, start to finish. Callie and her team did more than we could have hoped for somehow in just one week. Callie made the entire process as simple for us as possible. She was always friendly but to the point whenever we met, being careful not to take too much time away from everything else going on in my business. Communication was clear and easy and very prompt. We are so excited to feature our new website and to utilize it as a tool to show our future clientele what we can do. I can’t speak more highly of the Brand in a Week – truly blown away!!

I was nervous that I would hire someone who wouldn't fully understand my business model and the value that I brought to the table. Callie was able to understand what I offer and remind me that I have specific clients out there that do need me. I have met many people over their years who do branding and website so I was very cynical to the process. Callie made up for all of those people! We were able to execute my vision in the timeframe that was laid out and she was available and still is available to help me work through scenarios that I am still learning from all angles of my business. I am grateful to have her in my corner and would highly recommend her to anyone I meet who is serious about their existing or new venture!

From the first time we connected, Callie saw my vision and began to bring it to life - even before I could fully see it. She invested so much - she felt like the other half of the business. Responsive, easy to work with, fun and downright brilliant. I cannot recommend her enough. 15/10.

Callie’s knowledge, teaching, understanding, suggestions, encouragement and guidance has been extremely helpful and yet never pushy. She is bubbly, yet was calm as a cucumber as we were launching my new brand. When I inquired about adding something, taking something out, changing something or making it right, she was on it, right away. Whether you already understand social media and why branding is important or not, Callie is a really great resource and someone you want on your team!

Callie quickly and confidently brought my vision to life and I could do nothing but agree, thank them for the innovation and roll with my new branding. Our experience with Honeycomb was nothing short of awesome. I had the team help me with branding and websites for both my new business and my existing foundation. Their Brand in a Week model was pretty cool to see. Callie quickly and confidently brought my vision to life and I could do nothing but agree, thank them for the innovation and roll with my new branding. She truly helped me feel represented within my logo and website! Thanks Team!

Here's the buzzz...

I've been in marketing for most of my career, so I've met a lot of creative people. I've never met somebody like Callie Kerbo. After working with her at Honeycomb Creative and our partnership with Blue Sky Partners, I’ve come to realize that she has this combination of creativity, productivity, and consistent communication that can be so rare in marketing and design I’d think we found a long lost gemstone. I can honestly say it’s been an honor to work alongside and learn from Callie—I think anybody who’s had or has the chance to will almost immediately feel the same way.

Callie was a joy to work with on our project. She is responsive, detail-oriented, and creative – an excellent combination when you’re looking for a quick turnaround on an important website and branding.

Callie and her team took our ideas and brought them to life in only ONE week! They made the entire launch of Hywater seamless (and fun) and our clients love the new branding and website. Thank you, Honeycomb!

I just launched Not Sorry Tattoo Consulting last month and I'm not only already getting clients but starting to talk with publications on stories they're working on about the company. This wouldn't have happened without Honeycomb and the work they did for me. Callie and the Honeycomb team truly gave me exactly what I needed. The Brand in a Week experience was so easy and seamless. While I loved to be part of the process, it was nice to know that Honeycomb had it covered, and by the end of the week, ending up with a full site and suite of branding for my company was truly special. I remember seeing the branding for the first time and it being the first time I really got excited about my new idea. Callie’s work made it feel real. My expectations were truly met.

Since the launch, I've niched down my brand, gotten dozens of more aligned leads, and it's allowed me to also utilize my CRM of Dubsado much more effectively and fully. My Brand in a Week experience was so useful, helpful and excellent all-around! I loved all of the questions I had to work through even before the week began so that I could really nail down the essence of my brand. The process itself was highly organized and I thought the user experience of the platforms used were great. The website itself was truly a 180 degree pivot into a new luxury, highly visual and highly personalized online version of ME and my brand! It looks phenomenal and I got so many positive raving reviews of the new look from followers, friends and clients. It really did exceed my expectations! Since the launch, I’ve niched down my brand, gotten dozens of more aligned leads, and it’s allowed me to also utilize my CRM of Dubsado much more effectively and fully. It was such a great investment into my business and I highly recommend it for any small business!

Can you help me with strategy on my business?

Yes! We love to strategize about your products or services. During our discovery call, we will discuss your business and suggest a number of Hive Sessions to develop a strategy for your services or products.

This process has the power to transform the way you see your business.
