We are MINT

magic makers.

MEET AMANDA

BODACIOUS BRANDER/CEO

I’m a risk taker, a magic maker and business shaker. My career is a wildly woven ball of branding and marketing strategy, writing, graphic design, event planning, media buying, public relations and beyond.

I’ve also had the privilege of working within and alongside organizations in an operational and development capacity, while gaining experience in human resources and management. This means I understand the value of a positive culture, fiscal responsibility and producing results.

I’m a branding bullet that has propelled businesses to the top in their industry. I’ve spearheaded efforts to put startups on the map, teamed up with authors to launch best-selling books and helped marketing departments go from the red headed step-child to a rockstar resource for my clients.

MEET KRISTA

GRAPHIC DESIGN + BRAND SPECIALIST

Originally from Alexandria, I graduated from Minnesota State University Moorhead with a major in graphic design with minors in art and advertising. As a kid, I was always coloring and doing crafts with my mom.

I found graphic design was the perfect way for me to merge my love for the arts and branding into one career. When I’m not in the office I can often be found reading or watching anything true crime related, shopping local sales, or painting.

MEET LACIE

DIGITAL + BRAND SPECIALIST

I was born and raised in Fargo and received my bachelor’s degree in marketing from North Dakota State University in 2020. I’ve always been drawn to creative work which ultimately led to my interest in all things branding.

I love to travel and spend time with my friends and family–those moments mean everything to me! Some of our favorite places to visit are Arizona, Big Sky, Wyoming, and our lake place on Big Cormorant.

I enjoy doing anything that allows me to get lost in creativity. I also love wine, movies, skincare + self care, exercising, driving on backroads while singing my favorite songs, and obsessing over our family dogs Dozer, Stella and Letty.

MEET KELSEY

CLIENT SUCCESS + OPERATIONS MANAGER

Originally from a small town in central Minnesota, I went to the University of South Dakota to pursue a business degree. After graduating with my MBA in 2017, I moved to Fargo to begin my career. Throughout my education and now in my career, I am driven by my passion for helping others and working with a team to accomplish a shared goal.

In my day to day, I love taking the next step to understand the “why” behind things. Because of that, you can usually find me behind a spreadsheet or reviewing our internal processes to ensure alignment across our team.

Outside of work, I am kept busy by my one year old son, Decker (oh yeah, my husband and our two dogs too!). Spending quality time with family and friends, exploring new cities and revisiting my favorite places will always excite me! I’ll never pass up the opportunity to shop at my go-to stores or binge the latest Netflix show.

TESTIMONIALS

What Our Clients Are Saying

“Amanda has been integral in building a visual brand we are proud of and messaging that aligns with our services and culture while helping us clearly define our marketing goals. In my eyes, the true definition of success is when a client no longer refers to you as a vendor. To our owner’s group, Amanda is a friend and partner. We are among many clients that require her time, and she somehow still makes us feel as if our needs are the most important ones on her plate.”

Jon Shilling President & CEO, General Equipment & Supplies, Inc.

“Amanda created and executed the branding of my Outpatient Chemical Dependency Clinic. Her professionalism and driven attitude made me feel confident in the success of my business. She went above and beyond in researching other outpatient facilities to ensure my clinic was on the path to success. Amanda approaches everything with a positive attitude and her passion for creating and completing a vision for the client is impeccable. I highly recommend Amanda without any reservations.”

Cassie Kasowski Beth's Place

“Amanda and her team were a joy to work with! Amanda took the time to really get to know the look that we were going for and the clientele we were hoping to attract. I believe she and her team went above and beyond to provide us with an excellent logo along with guidance for all the little extras we hadn’t had enough of yet! I HIGHLY recommend giving MINT Brand Marketing a call if you need any services related to building a stronger brand image! Feel free to reach out for a first-hand reference.”

Alicia Weigel Evolution Construction

“Amanda is a creative strategic thinker who focuses on results and outcomes. She excels in situations where she is able to develop a dialogue around organizational objectives. She will challenge your thinking about how you position yourself and your organization in your marketplace. And when you step up to that challenge you will see results. I would recommend Amanda to help you inspire yourself and others to be bold, try new things, and help you get energized about where your business can take you.”

Tamara Anderson Dale Carnegie of North Dakota

“Thank you SO much to the Mint Brand Marketing team for the marketing materials (we even received a compliment on how fun they were), signage, event planning & coordination. Top-notch service and always felt organized. We appreciate you!”

Melissa Beach Casselton Economic Development

“It was so fun and easy to work with MINT for my new office promotion! They came up with great ideas, made it happen fast and followed up well. I can’t say enough great things about their group! The team really understood the “look” I was going for in my graphics. We will definitely use their help on more projects in the near future. I highly recommend!!”

Dr. Melissa McCulley McCulley Optix Gallery

“You want fantastic? You found it with Amanda at MINT Brand Marketing! I was lucky enough to work with her on several projects for nonprofits during a statewide giving day, and she CRUSHED expectations, embodied enthusiasm and crafted some of the best traditional and digital media pieces I’ve seen. Additionally, she helped design and create the cover of a book I wrote – and it was PERFECTLY on brand. You won’t find a better partner to make you or your organization look awesome on paper or the web!!!”

Alicia Weigel Evolution Construction

“I highly recommend working with Mandee at MINT! I saw the work she had done for a friend of mine and knew that she would be just the person I needed to help me get the ball rolling in my own business branding and logo. I was a more difficult client in that I did not know what I wanted but she was able to ask the right questions, offer helpful suggestions, and get me to exactly where I wanted to be! She was reliable, available, fun to work with, and always willing to go the extra mile so that I had exactly what I needed. I look forward to continuing to work with her team in the future!”
