Ready to Create Kickass Strategic Swag That Actually Grows Your Business?
Let’s create branded merch that builds relationships and the connection you’re after.
Maybe you’re new to branded merch. Or maybe you’ve tried Print-On-Demand and got nothing back—because the products were generic, didn’t fit your brand, or connect with your customers.
Most business owners just don’t have the time to figure out what to send, let alone source and manage it.
That’s where I come in.
With 30+ years in product development, sourcing, and distribution, I help business owners like you:
Choose products that fit your brand (and your audience actually wants).
Create, design, and deliver them—without the sourcing headaches.
Turn swag into a profit center—through sales, retention, and referrals.
Whether you’re launching, onboarding, hosting an event, or simply want to be remembered, I’ll help you create merch that’s strategic, aligned, and impossible to ignore.


Your brand isn't a logo. It's a feeling.
Let’s create kickass merch that makes your clients remember you—because of how you made them feel.

I've created for clients.
They said it, not me:
”I highly recommend Barbara and her services. She is very informative and helpful when it comes to helping you decide what steps to take in developing your own branded products."
- Shelby Law Ruttan, Cookbook Author Honey B's Kitchen
"I thought I needed promo items. Barbara showed me I needed a strategy. She took the time to understand my brand and then helped me create products that felt like me — not some generic ‘put-your-logo-here’ junk. Total game-changer."
— Nicole T., Coach
