About Tamed Jackalope Studio
Hey there! My name is Shelby
nice to meet you!
Digital Marketing Happened By Accident
No Really...
In 2016 I was a stay at home mom and had just had my second daughter with my husband who was currently enlisted in the US Army as a MP. We were stationed in Texas at the time and he knew that he wanted to get out of the military and go back home to be near family (home being Missouri). Faced with a huge life transition and career change I began frantically researching jobs that I could take on from home. My youngest was only about 6 months old at the time and I didn't feel prepared to leave her yet, but the financial uncertainty made that a possibility. This was well before COVID and before remote jobs were more commonplace. There were so few opportunities that fit my lifestyle as a mother to young children. If you are a parent yourself you probably know this part of the story all too well. The sheer lack of opportunity lead me to dive headfirst into entrepreneurship.
the first thing I ever sold on the internet was a pair of used tennis shoes
Listen we all start somewhere. My first real experience making money on my own from home came from selling a pair of used tennis shoes on eBay. After months of searching through MLM pyramid schemes and unsustainable business models for moms I found "reselling". I would spend hours sifting through thrift stores (still one of my favorite things to do by the way) to find high end, designer, or desirable clothes that I would then clean, repair, and flip for a profit on third party sites like eBay and Poshmark. What started as a pair of my own used sneakers turned into a six figure side hustle that I worked for four years. That first sale ignited the fire of my own entrepreneur dreams and showed me just how limitless the possibilities were for making money online. I spent years learning more and more about sales, marketing, growth, and sustainability. I slowly shifted away from selling used goods and started selling liquidations and wholesale. Then in 2019 (in the middle of COVID) I started a second business, a children's boutique, which is where my graphic and web design skills really started to emerge.
"what started as a pair of my own used sneakers turned into a six figure side hustle"
I fell in love with designing everything my brands needed. I was constantly updating my packaging and websites, and I was dying to talk shop with anyone I could. Here is where my dreams of helping other entrepreneurs entered my head. I started to realize how much I could help other women who shared the same dreams that I did. I realized I was spending a lot of my time focusing on learning more graphic design skills like branding and web design instead of dedicating my energy to scaling current businesses. I was constantly daydreaming about new business models and how I would market them. In 2022 I had my fourth yes fourth daughter and knew I wanted to make a shift. Now I focus my time and energy on building bad-ass brands and websites for others.
After 6+ years of running my own ecommerce empire I've learned first hand what it takes to make money online and Im here to help you do it too

Can I get a discount if I bundle services?
Yes, I am happy to meet your business where it's at and help you in any way that I can. We currently have web design services readily available for Showit, Squarespace, and Shopify. These are companies that I stand behind and recommend as one business owner to another. However, if your site is on already on another platform such as GoDaddy, Wordpress, Wix, etc we can still work together. If you need help with graphic design products that are not currently listed in our services please reach out with details about the project. Please note that while I do accept custom projects they may still be declined. Reach out through our contact form about custom projects.

Yes payment plans are available for all projects over $500. Depending on the amount charged payments may be broken down into 2-4 payments. The first payment is always due upon booking to reserve your slot, and final payments are always due before the project is completed. If payment is broken into more than 2 installments, automatic payment is required. This prevents any unnecessary delays in the project.

Currently only full brand identity and strategy packages are available. There are a few reasons why a logo only package isn't offered the primary reason being that it doesn't align with my values on helping other business owners. While "just a logo" is a great first step in gaining a more professional appearance for your brand, it is not going to build trust and authority the way that a full brand identity will. Out brand packages also include marketing strategy which contains actionable tools for growing your business. I mean it when I say that I want to help other business owners grow their businesses, and a single logo design won't help you achieve that.

Our initial communication will take place over email. A discovery or inquiry call may take place to answer any questions you might have and discuss the details of the project. After booking a "kick-off" call may take place to dive deeper into the details of your projects, vision, and goals. During the project we will either keep in touch through e-mail or inside of your client portal. Web design projects often include a recorded video tutorial on how to manage your new site. Fellow Introverts: If getting on a phone or video call makes you break out in a nervous sweat don't worry just request that we keep communication in email. Please note that by opting out of calls/meetings it may create a longer project timeline, for that reason calls are recommended.

Yes! If you are interested in web design services I highly recommend updating your branding as well. Your website is big investment and the branding package will not only ensure that your site doesn't clash with your logo but also includes marketing strategy that can guide you in how to get visitors to your site and how to sell to them once they get there. E-commerce clients may also receive discounts on product photography. Whether you use Tamed Jackalope Studio for your photography needs or not it is HIGHLY recommended to get professional product photography done when investing in a website design.
