Got champagne taste on a beer budget?
I don’t really like either to be perfectly honest… but I’ve built a team that specializes in delivering the highest quality design work at the most reasonable prices.
We specifically work with new and scaling businesses because we love nothing more than watching your confidence grow alongside your revenue and client roster after you put your professional brand and website to work.
Want to know if we’re a good match?
If you share these core values, we're going to get along just fine.
Kindness
Why be rude when you can be kind?! We believe that when business is built on kindness, everyone wins. And we love winning around here.
generosity
Over delivering is our middle name. We are generous with our time, our energy, and our results because we truly love what we do.
friendliness
Most of our clients feel like friends by the end of a project. We pride ourselves on building strong relationships and leading a smile.

Makena is high energy and does a great job of asking the right questions to get at the heart of your brand through understanding your purpose and vision. Answering thought provoking questions and then having an actual conversation with Makena made me think deeper about my business.
Beth Miller
Wonderful from start to finish. I appreciated the thorough questionnaire because it made me think of things I wouldn't have typically considered and helped me hone in on the voice of my brand. I like the workflow, the ease of communication, the tools that were given to us, and Makena’s ability to listen.

I had no doubt you would knock it out of the park, but the work itself was far better than I expected or anticipated. It shook me how you knew what I needed better than I did. I felt like you challenged me in the kindest ways. That's a true skill.
Jenn Otto
Makena helped me to make sense of the concept of branding myself and my business to help me attract my ideal client. She was intuitive in her approach to working with me and took the time to walk me through the information gathering in a way that was easy for me to provide her what she needed.
Nina Brothers
Makena was outstanding to work with from start to finish. She walked me through the whole branding process, took the time to listen to my wants, and portrayed the vision of my business creatively. Throughout the whole process, she was attentive, insightful, and a great communicator.

Working with Makena has given me a platform to present my business to the world in a beautifully crafted manner. I've been able to increase sales on my book, "Warriors: Our Battle Cry." To have her on your team is the best and easiest decision you will ever make.

A note from our founder
I’m Makena, and I come from a loooong line of entrepreneurs.
A love for turning a thought or idea into cold, hard cash runs deep in my blood.
I started my first business at 8 and have gone on to tackle many other entrepreneurial pursuits since. Makena Creative took root in 2019, and for the past 5 years I’ve been using my skills and passion to help other solopreneurs and business owners build a sustainable, successful foundation.
When I’m not designing stand out brands and websites, you can probably find me at a networking event. Seriously… I run a group myself and actively participate in many others. If there’s a networking opportunity in the greater Nashville area – I’m there.
I’m an open book about all things business, marketing, networking, branding, and web design. If you ever have a question or just want to talk through where you are and what you need in your business, I’d love to chat!
Ready to give your business the
professional edge
you need?
Let’s design a brand or website you and your clients will love!
