I sat down with Jaime, the self-taught cake decorator and entrepreneur behind Love & Flour Bakery, to dive into her journey of rebranding and elevating her business.
From cashing out her 401k at 22 to create her dream bakery, to navigating the challenges of COVID and emerging stronger, Jamie's story is nothing short of inspiring. We chat about the transformation she experienced through rebranding, and how it helped her refocus her business goals and create a truly luxe experience for her clients.
But this isn't just about pretty logos and fancy websites. Jaime gets real about the nitty-gritty of rebranding - the excitement, the challenges, and yes, even the unexpected benefits. She shares invaluable advice for those considering a rebrand, including why she wishes she'd done it sooner and how to approach the process.

We're diving deep into the world of identity marketing with the fiery and brilliant Veronica Romney. If you've ever wondered how brands like Harley Davidson inspire such intense loyalty that people tattoo their logo on their bodies, or how Taylor Swift created the phenomenon of "Swifties," you're in for a treat.
Veronica breaks down the difference between brand identity and identity marketing, explaining how the latter taps into the core of who your customers are or aspire to be. We explore examples from various industries and discuss how even service-based businesses can leverage this powerful strategy.
But it's not all theory - we get practical too. Veronica shares insights on how to uncover your customers' identity markers and how to measure the success of your identity marketing efforts. We also touch on the potential pitfalls, like tying your brand too closely to a single leader.
What I love about this conversation is how it challenges us to think beyond traditional marketing approaches.
Whether you're a wedding planner, a luxury service provider, or any type of business owner, this episode will give you fresh perspectives on connecting with your audience on a deeper level.
