Meet Patrice
Welcome! I’m Patrice. I’m a branding & graphic design specialist with a heart for serving legacy & established small businesses. I love helping my clients have clarity in who they are as a business & learn how to explain that to their perfect clients so they can sell more & stress less. I don’t just help you create captivating graphics, I help you create a compelling brand strategy that sets you up for success and propels your business to its next level.
My Process
I started this business in 2011 with one goal in mind. That mission was to give small businesses access to the tools big businesses used to succeed including brand strategy consulting and graphic design.
I take a hands-on mentality with my business, working alongside people and listening intently to their concerns as they move forward in this process. While I don’t have a set system to follow, I like to start with a brand analysis of your business to see where the weak spots are, from there you and I make some decisions about the next steps.
Depending on what gets uncovered during the analysis, most businesses either move into in-depth strategy creation or straight into the design. For businesses that need both, they move into one of my VIP slots.

Learn How it Works!
What kind of services are provided by Purple Rose Graphics?
my main services include brand strategy consulting and logo design for small established businesses. My goal is to help my clients build their brand from the inside out so they can sell more and stress less. Goals aren’t one size fits all, so my work helps my clients achieve their goals whether it’s growing an empire, having time and location freedom, or making enough cash to live comfortably without another job.
How long does a project take?
Consultations range from 30-60 minutes and provide clarity about what is causing problems for a business to succeed. Customized solutions to each business’s individual issues are also suggested.
For graphic design projects, It depends on the project. The average timeline for most projects is 2 – 4 weeks from the start of the project to final design approval. Projects involving committees or multiple decision-makers may take up to 6 weeks.
What is the process like?
For consulting the process is Questionnaire (if needed) > Schedule Consulting Call > Payment > Attend Consulting Call via Phone or Zoom Most consulting calls are 30-60 minute sessions
For design projects, the process is Consult Meeting > Proposal > Payment > Initial Proof > Make Edits > Design Approved > Final Files Sent (Estimated timeline and turnaround depending on the project and can take up to 6 weeks max. Average is around 2- 4 weeks).
I need this tomorrow! Do you accept rush jobs?
I prioritize delivering high-quality work, which is why I prefer not to accept rush jobs.
Quick turnarounds, such as overnight or two-day deadlines, often compromise the final result’s quality, and I strive for your satisfaction with the outcome. However, if you have a design project with a one-week deadline, I can assess my current schedule to potentially accommodate your needs.
What types of payment are accepted?
All Major Credit Cards, Corporate Check, PayPal
Do you build websites or create promotional products like pens and t-shirts?
While I specialize in other areas, such as brand strategy and logo design, I’m fortunate to have talented friends who excel in website creation and promotional products.
Feel free to explore the “Preferred Vendors” page on my website, where you can find links to their services and benefit from their expertise.
I have a design already; do you do printing?
I specialize in design creation rather than printing for existing designs.
For printing services, I recommend visiting my preferred vendor list, where you can connect with one of my preferred printing companies. They’ll be happy to assist you with your printing needs.

Nothing in business is linear and often times when you think you have a marketing problem, you most likely also have a branding problem. Unfortunately, people assume branding is complicated and shy away from it. Branding is a superpower for businesses that creates connections, builds authority, fosters loyalty, and helps businesses grow.
It doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming if you know what areas to look at first and what areas you don’t need to work on as much or at all.
That’s where the Brand Examination and Research system or B.E.A.R. for short comes in. It’s two (2) worksheets to fill out paired with a 30-minute consultation call with me.
What I find when I analyze your business is what I lovingly call your “Building Blocks” because I break down your brand into 3 different areas – Audience, Messaging, Offer – so we (you and I) can see what’s working and what needs extra help. This breakdown allows businesses like yours to start the branding or rebranding process without overwhelming themselves or feeling like they need to work on the whole thing when only one or two areas need help.
I’ve been using the B.E.A.R. system with my clients for a long time. It’s the exact brand analysis tool that has helped me and my clients brand, rebrand, and pivot our way to success.
