Brand Strategy & Design
Branding that works as hard as you do.
Whether you're a local business finding your footing or a growing brand ready to scale, you deserve more than a quick logo. You need a brand that tells your story, connects with your people, and holds up over time.
What We Do
Strategy, design, and words that work together.
Good branding isn't just about looking professional—it's about clarity. Knowing who you are, what you offer, and how to communicate it consistently. That's what we build.
Brand Strategy
Positioning, messaging, and the foundational thinking that makes everything else click. We figure out what makes you different—and how to say it.
Visual Identity
Logos, color palettes, typography, patterns—the visual pieces that make your brand recognizable. Designed as a system, not a scattered collection.
Copywriting & Content
Website copy, taglines, brand voice guidelines, and the words that bring your brand to life. Clear, compelling, and sounds like you (but better).
Hey, I'm Anne
I build brands for people who are too busy running their business to figure out branding.
I started Sagebrush & Steel because I kept seeing the same thing: talented people with great businesses being undersold by their own branding. The restaurant with amazing food and a menu that looked like an afterthought. The coach with real expertise and a website that screamed "I made this myself at 2am."
I'm based in Montana, where you earn trust through the work—not the pitch. That perspective shapes everything I do. Whether you're a farm stand selling eggs and baked goods or a digital brand scaling nationally, the fundamentals are the same: know who you are, say it clearly, and look like you mean it.
I handle strategy, design, and copywriting—so your brand actually sounds like one person built it. Because one person did.
Who This Is For
Small businesses and growing brands who want to do this right.
Local & Regional Businesses
Restaurants, farm stands, trades, retail shops, professional services. You've built something real—now you need branding that matches the quality of what you actually do.
"I need a logo that doesn't look like my cousin made it, and I have no idea where to start."
Digital-First Founders
Coaches, course creators, ecommerce brands, content businesses. You're growing fast and need a brand that can scale with you—without looking generic or losing your personality.
"I've outgrown my DIY branding and I'm ready for something more strategic."
