HEY THERE!
IF BUILDING YOUR BRAND + BUSINESS HAS YOU FEELING LIKE…
AND YOU DREAM OF THE DAY WHEN IT CAN FEEL LIKE…
STOP in the name of warm bagels on a Sunday morning.
You’re A Big Deal has you covered (like full-fat cream cheese on that warm bagel) with workshops, websites and a whole lot in between we’re here to help you have fun AND get sh*t done for your business + brand.
DISCLAIMER: It’s okay if you don’t love cream cheese or bagels. We will probably still work with you. (Did we mention we love sarcasm? 🤪)
our services
what makes us unique as business + brand strategists?
YOU are the visionary: we listen to YOU and help you bring YOUR ideas to life
(This may seem obvious but we’ve seen enough people feel pressured into big websites, over-the-top branding, and complicated business plans that aren’t aligned with their unique visions. We make sure it’s you, you, and you driving the bus).
Flexibility is our jam: we don’t follow any strict formulas or plans. We focus on finding what feels aligned, exciting, and right for you and build from there.
Community is everything: building real, genuine relationships with real people is the only way we do life and business
Simplicity is key: we’re not for overcomplicating anything. Your strategy, your website, your business plan — we help you keep it all simple (so you’ll stick with it!)
Perfection is a myth: we remind you your ideas are good. We help you focus on progress. We get into the details but will keep you out of the weeds.
We are human too: another ‘seems obvious but needs to be said’. We’re humans with families, relationships, feelings, fears, needs, wants, desires. We don’t shy away from realness in ourselves and help you honor that for yourself too. Bring it all!
“My Brand Strategy Workshop was super energizing. Melissa and Amy at You’re A Big Deal ask smart questions, challenge the status quo, and dig into the fears that tend to keep me stuck. The fears I’m quick to dismiss or defend were exposed as part of the process to move forward. I’m ready!”

building a brand + business is NOT one-size-fits-all.
If you find yourself riding waves of self-doubt and frustration trying to find clarity, direction, and the simple plan to bring your passion, mission, and vision to life…it’s not you! It’s the generic, prescriptive strategies that overlook YOU and your unique vision and circumstances.
We’re here to help you #hardpass on those and cheer you on while you do things YOUR way. Then building your brand + business will feel less UGH and more UNBELIEVABLY DO-ABLE.
If you’re looking for simplicity, efficiency, and honesty from two real human beings that LOVE to help passionate people live fulfilling lives doing what they love — WELCOME!
Our favorite movie is Bring It On and Amy was a cheerleader in high school. Spirit fingers, anyone?
