Branding That Stacks Up.
Just the right mix of identity, strategy, and merch to make your business look as put-together as it actually is — even when you’re juggling everything else.
Why It Works
Merch That Actually Markets
Just small-batch gear designed to get worn, seen, and talked about — so your business stays visible without you lifting a finger.
Branding Without the Bloat
You get a streamlined starter plan — SEO tips, social guardrails, brand voice guide — the stuff that makes you look legit fast.
Quality without Compromise
Premium blanks, water-based inks, and design with taste. Because cheap merch looks cheap — and your business deserves better.
No one has to know you’re winging it.
Most folks will meet your brand long before they meet you. On a shirt. In a feed. At a booth.
And in those first few seconds, you’ve got a choice: Look like a hobby — or look like the beginning of something serious.
Milk Crate Marketing gives you the tools to show up sharp, aligned, and ready — so when opportunity knocks, your brand doesn’t answer the door in pajama pants.
A High-Impact Jumpstart for Small Brands
Who It's For
Not for Fortune 500s with marketing departments. This is for the founder who’s juggling invoices, late-night emails, and a to-do list with no bottom — and still needs a brand that doesn’t look like it was duct-taped together.
What's Inside
One focused call, three months of merch drops, and a Mini Marketing Plan with the essentials: SEO quick wins, social media strategy, brand voice guide, content prompts, and grassroots marketing ideas. Just enough to give you direction — without burying you in busywork.
How to Use It
This is branding you can put to work. Wear it. Share it. Sell it. Post it. Bring it to events. Hand it to customers. Every piece is designed to give you momentum — so your business looks as strong as the work you’re already putting in.
FAQs
What exactly is Milk Crate Marketing?
It’s a no-fluff, high-impact marketing starter kit designed for small businesses that don’t have time to build a 40-slide strategy deck.
You get: one focused strategy call, a custom mini marketing plan, and three months of merch drops — all tailored to your brand and audience.
Who is this made for?
Small business owners, indie brands, service providers, local weirdos — anyone building something real without a full team behind them.
If you’ve got a vision but no idea how to “market,” we’ve got you.
Do I need to have a logo or branding already?
Not necessarily. If you have something solid, we’ll build on it.
If your current logo was made on your phone at 2 a.m., we can clean it up or create something better as part of the process.
What do the merch drops include?
Three monthly shipments of custom, ready-to-sell (or giveaway) merch.
Think T-shirts, stickers, tote bags — high-quality, low-effort assets that help people recognize and remember your brand.
Do I have to do anything once it starts?
Not much. We’ll get what we need during the initial strategy call and intake. After that, we do the heavy lifting.
You’ll get assets, merch, and guidance — without having to chase anything down.
What if I want to change or add things later?
You can! We offer upgrades, add-ons, and follow-up support — from pop-up shops to print runs to full rebrands.
This is just the start.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is designed to be an easy “yes” for early-stage businesses.
You’ll get premium deliverables without agency-level fees.
Can I talk to someone before I commit?
Of course. We offer short discovery calls if you want to make sure it’s a good fit before jumping in.
You Don’t Need a Full Team. You Just Need the Right Start.
You need a plan that works, a look that holds up, and a few solid things you can hand someone and say, “Yeah — this is us.”
Milk Crate Marketing is how you get there.
