BRANDING & MARKETING FOR CHEESE BRANDS & MAKERS
elevating the stories, values and dreams
of the people who make magic with milk
We know being a cheesemaker is about more than just making cheese.
it starts with passion.
Before there is milk, before there is cheese, there is a desire to create.
This desire is fueled by passion. Passion for science, agriculture, family, animals, sustainability, slow food, fermentation, transformation, preservation of culture, self-sustaining communities, or sometimes it’s simply passion for the cheese itself.
The passion drives choices and it’s the unique choices (and the people + stories behind the choices) that begin to tell the story of a cheesemaker and their cheese.
your story is important.
Though it can be tempting to focus solely on the cheese (it’s certainly worthy of the attention), the real skill in branding + marketing is creating connection to your customer.
At You’re A Big Deal we help you facilitate connection through your stories, your values, clear messaging, professional images, and a simple website that captures the essence of not just what you do but WHY you do it the way you do it (a.k.a your unique, magnetic magic).
We showcase what you love about your cheese so other people can love it too.
And we make it easy. Our process is efficient and flexible. We have Brand Strategy + Web Design Packages starting at $1200.

Why trust you’re a big deal with your cheese branding & marketing?
The short answer is: we love food, farmers, makers, creators, and cheese.
The longer answer is: Amy was a former intern, writer, Social Media Manager and Events & Education Manager for culture magazine. She orchestrated the early years of Counter Culture alongside Lassa Skinner and sharing cheese people + stories gives her life. She might be made of 50% milk.
Melissa brings 15 years of capturing the essence of people, products and love in photos. Her photos tell complete stories of their own.
There is depth, beauty and wisdom in cheesemakers that doesn’t often get shared — your commitment to natural resources, the intersection of science + intuition and your relationship with the process, for example.
We see it.
We’ll help other people see it all too.
