Alexis Jacobson (me)
that’s it. that’s the whole team.
A business owner who’s built brands from dirt and data.
A former consultant who’s as comfortable in spreadsheets as in Showit.
A market researcher who knows what makes people click—and what makes them bounce.
A mom of three who’s mastered the art of clarity, even in chaos.
A strategist who actually listens.
A designer who doesn’t decorate—she directs.
And a human who’s built something real—and wants that for you, too.
Because your brand deserves more than just pretty—it deserves someone who gets what it’s like to build a business in real life.
Based in Maine | Working With Clients Worldwide
You’re not just hiring a designer.
You’re getting me.
At A. Jacobson, I help small business owners (especially the ones who’ve outgrown DIY) step into a brand that finally reflects their real value—with strategy-led design that’s grounded in audience research and actual business goals.
I’ve spent 7+ years in market research—working with Fortune 500s, SaaS startups, and service-based solopreneurs alike. Now, I use that insight to build brands that aren’t just beautiful—they actually work.
always on brand
Clarity > chaos
less is more

And Now
And a retail market. Learned how to brand something beautiful and functional.
Started a Flower Farm
Freelanced in market research for Fortune 500s while raising Babies and chasing ideas. Learned how to distill complex ideas—fast.
The Hustle
for local food. Stayed for the slower pace, organic ag, and cheaper rent
Moved to Maine
Studied French lit + food culture. Lived in Paris. Fell for beauty, language, and slow mornings.
NYC & Paris
MY TIMELINE
Designing research-rooted brands for women solopreneurs.
Still in Maine. Still doing a dozen things. But now it all adds up.
