Evolve Your Authority,

Kay White had built a successful corporate coaching practice but felt ready to expand into bold thought leadership. Over a decade of brand evolution together, her visual identity grew from a single logo into a complete system that supported every new direction—from coaching programs to speaking engagements to industry recognition. Her brand became a flexible foundation that evolved with her expertise, allowing her to launch each new offering with confidence and consistent recognition.

Designs crafted to reflect your real presence and energy, so your brand feels alive and magnetic. The result is a consistent experience that aligns with how you show up, attracting clients who resonate deeply with your expertise.

Hi, I'm Erin Stratton, Strategic Brand Designer

I help ambitious coaches, consultants, and creative experts who've outgrown their current brand and are ready to attract premium clients naturally.

I create Brand Gravity systems—strategic visual identities that create magnetic pull between them and their dream clients while supporting their biggest entrepreneurial visions.

Over two decades, hundreds of experts worldwide have redesigned their brands with me, to truly embody who they are and naturally attract clients who resonate with them.

Here's how it works: We dive deep into your vision—not just your current business, but your biggest dreams for where you're headed. Then I create a complete brand system where every single choice supports that vision and creates magnetic pull with the clients who want to be part of your journey.

When we work together, you're not just getting a prettier logo. You're getting a strategic partner who understands that your brand should work as big as your dream.

Your vision deserves a brand with gravitational force.

Common Questions

How long does a brand design take?

Most projects take 4–8 weeks, depending on scope. Smaller projects may wrap faster, while full brand systems and websites take more time to develop thoughtfully.

I take on a limited number of clients at once and I move through projects quickly because I know your designs are doing you absolutely no good on my desk.

What’s the difference between a logo and a full brand identity?

A logo is just one symbol. A full brand identity includes your logo, colors, fonts, imagery, and strategic positioning — all the elements that make your business recognizable, consistent, and magnetic to your ideal clients.

Do you work with clients outside the U.S.?

Yes! I work with coaches, consultants, and creative businesses all over the world. My streamlined process and clear communication make remote collaboration simple and effective.
