LILAC + CLOVER

handmade business coach

BRANDING • WEBSITE DESIGN • GRAPHIC DESIGN • SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING • CONSULTING

Lilac and Clover is a one-stop shop for all things handmade business. Made for Canadian Makers by a Canadian Maker, L+C is a culmination of everything Jess learned (and continues to learn) on her journey from a handmade hobbyist to full time entrepreneur.

Whether it’s a free download or a complete course, Jess continues to share her knowledge with fellow Canadian makers. She took years of ongoing research and placed it into classes and resources for Makers to use at their convenience. We want to help you go from selling to your family and friends, to having your products sold in shops and markets all over! From side hustle to main hustle, and living your best life!

We helped Jess make the transition from Maker to Maker-of-Maker’s by creating a cohesive business brand, and designing visual assets that were consistent with the newly re-vamped branding. We contributed valuable ideas and insights, managed social media, and created a stellar custom website with a wow factor that would help convert visitors into members of the Lilac and Clover community.

The Method

Branding and Identity

Jess already had some branding assets designed for Lilac and Clover as a soap making business, but as she made the transition to Lilac and Clover 2.0, these assets had to be tweaked. But there was still something missing. So Modus Operandi built a brand kit that acted as a guideline for all Lilac and Clover assets, which pulled it all together.

Customized Kajabi Website Design

The original Lilac and Clover 2.0 website was built on the Kajabi platform for the course functionality, but it lacked branding and personality. We brought life back into Lilac and Clover’s website! We customized the design, which created stronger brand recognition and gave visitors more confidence in the content. We designed it using UX (user experience) principles that would help increase website conversions.


Social Media Marketing

The Result

  • Working with Amber and The CTRL Lab has been such a pleasure! Amber has taken initiative, put together a plan, and helped me to create consistency and a strategy for our business. I’m so excited to continue to work together and love that I can put complete trust in her and her work so I can also work in my zone of genius!

WHAT WE’RE READING 📚 Today I picked up Good Habit WHAT WE’RE READING 📚 Today I picked up Good Habits, Bad Habits by Wendy Wood. I’m only at the beginning, but it already has me thinking about something simple: We are what we repeatedly do. The habits we build shape our outcomes — personally and professionally. If we can learn how to intentionally build better habits and eliminate the ones that hold us back, the impact could ripple into every area of life. Looking forward to diving into this one! 🤓
In the early days, you ARE the business 💪🏻 You do In the early days, you ARE the business 💪🏻 You do the marketing. Answer the emails. Organize the receipts. Build the website. Serve the clients. But growth won't happen if you keep doing everything. (Not because you’re not capable.) Because you simply can’t do everything at once. You work hard to bring in new clients, and once you have them.. You need to service them. So your focus shifts to the work. And while you’re busy serving the customer, answering emails, and keeping clients happy… Who’s doing the marketing? Where are the next clients? Usually… nobody 😬 So the pipeline dries up. Then when the work wraps up, you have to scramble to drum up more business again. And the cycle repeats. You’re stuck working IN the business, which means nobody is working ON the business. Real growth starts when you can break this cycle and start to delegate. Delegation isn’t losing control. It’s creating the space your business needs to grow. This is the kind of work we do at Modus Operandi 💃🏼 We help business owners step out of the day-to-day, build better systems, strengthen marketing strategy, and create a business that operates like a oiled machine 😎 If you want help figuring out what to delegate, which systems you need, or how to keep clients flowing into your pipeline... Let’s talk! Book a discovery call so that we can look at your business together and map out the next step 👉🏻 https://bit.ly/3MMNDWb
Some projects just hit a little closer to the hear Some projects just hit a little closer to the heart 🐾 We had the chance to work with Natasha as she launched her pet service business. Our role was part consulting, part design — helping her map out what it would take to start and run a successful pet care business, and then we helped her build a brand that reflected the care and professionalism she showed her clients. This one was extra special, because before Modus Operandi, there was Black Collar Society (a pet hotel that I [Amber] owned). It was honestly one of the best jobs I’ve ever had — spending my days caring for animals and walking dogs alongside some incredible women. Getting to dip my toes back into that world again gave me LIFE 🐶 Working with pet professionals is something I would love to do more of! So, if you’re a dog walker, pet sitter, groomer, trainer, or run a pet care business and want help building something sustainable, profitable and less stressful - let me help! Thank you so much, Natasha, you for trusting us with your vision 🖤
I haven't disappeared. I've been recalibrating. I haven't disappeared. I've been recalibrating. Our little family grew, and then we moved across the world to a town where we didn't have a built-in support system. No village. No backup plan. So we built it. New community. New relationships. New businesses. Motherhood has helped me to become more focused, streamlined, and more decisive than ever before 🧡 My time is precious to me. Now, with a strong community of friends, family, and neighbours behind us — we are transitioning from survival to thriving on purpose. And I’m ready to help you do the same. Modus Operandi has never been about "hustle". We are passionate about helping small business owners make the shift from working IN their business to working ON their business, so they can work less and make more. If you're ready to make that shift, book a call with me TODAY and let’s map out how you can work smarter, not harder 😉 BOOK HERE 👉🏻 https://bit.ly/3MMNDWb
A soft launch Cinderella story ✨ When starting up A soft launch Cinderella story ✨ When starting up a new business, you don't always have the budget for a complete brand strategy, brand kit or a new website. That's why we worked alongside this client to create an attractive logo and design assets for a social media soft launch.. and she landed 4 NEW CLIENTS within 8 hours of launching! 💃🏼 If you offer a quality service or product, and you feel like you're not gaining any traction; you might want to consider a rebrand! #logodesign #logodesigners #customlogodesign #logoredesign #logobrandingdesign #brandingdesign #logomaker #brandlogo #logodaily #logoinspire #graphicdesigncommunity #graphicdesignstudio #logocreation #logolove #logogram #logosimple #dailylogo #modernlogos #brandinginspiration #brandingidentity #brandingstrategy #brandingstudio #brandingdesigner #brandingexpert #brandingcoach #brandinglogo #digitalbranding #brandingservices #brandingsolutions #brandingspecialist
“You get a card, you get a card..” 🥳 Real talk th “You get a card, you get a card..” 🥳 Real talk though: anything worth doing, is worth doing right! I speak from experience when I tell you that a well designed business card doesn’t end up in the recycling bin, makes a lasting impression and motivates the recipient to take action 💪🏻 The real question is: WHO WANTS A CARD?! 😂 #businesscardsdesign #typographyinspiration #businesscardideas #designbusiness #designbusinesscard #letterpressbusinesscards #luxurybusinesscards #custombusinesscards #newbusinesscards #premiumbusinesscard #logodesign #brandidentity #businesscards #goldfoil #goldstandard #nothingbutthebest #luxurybranding
