Strategy first.
Brand
forward.
Baxter & Co. builds the strategic foundation that transforms founder-led businesses into recognized, trusted brands.
"Your story is the foundation of your strategy."
We don't start with a logo. We start with the question most agencies skip: what does this brand actually need to say, and who does it need to say it to? The creative follows the strategy — not the other way around.
Clarity first.
Then everything
else.
We clarify what isn't landing and define a brand that communicates with precision. Through strategy-first thinking, we refine your positioning, messaging, and direction so every touchpoint tells the same story.
We translate strategy into a cohesive creative system across every touchpoint. From visual identity to content, we create work that is consistent, considered, and reinforces trust at every stage of the buyer journey.
We oversee how your brand shows up across all platforms. From planning to performance, we manage the details so your brand builds credibility consistently — without you managing every post.

Founded by Rachael Baxter, Baxter & Co. was built on a single conviction: story and strategy are not separate disciplines. When a founder's story is clear, the creative direction becomes obvious, the messaging becomes consistent, and the right people start finding them.
Baxter & Co. works with founders at a distinct moment of change — stepping into a new chapter, entering a new phase of growth, or making a strategic pivot. Often, the business has evolved but the brand is still telling the old story.
The right moment
to work with us.
You've grown, but something about how you show up doesn't reflect where you are anymore.
You're putting content out but it's not attracting the right clients or converting the way it should.
You're entering a new market, raising capital, or repositioning and the brand needs to keep up.
Different platforms, messages, and looks. The brand isn't telling one cohesive story.
You can explain the business in person but the website, deck, or content doesn't capture it.
You're launching and want to get it right from the beginning — strategy before execution.
