Why We Baked Dough
We’ve lived the problem. Now we’re solving it.
the ingredients of growth
We’ve spent years inside design, sales, and marketing teams — watching the same story play out again and again. When each worked in silos, momentum flatlined. But when they aligned, results compounded and growth became scalable. That’s the recipe Dough was built on.
We’re especially passionate about working with businesses that create real impact — mission-driven nonprofits, tech innovators, and true SMBs who fuel their communities. We believe growth should feel human, not hollow. Massive corporations may chase scale at all costs, but we rise with the builders, not the giants.

SALES
Not just closing — sales systems build consistency, nurture relationships, and turn opportunities into revenue that compounds over time.

The Birth of Dough
We’re two friends who kept seeing the same problem: small businesses trying to grow with pieces that never connected. Without alignment, momentum stalled. But when design, marketing, and sales worked together? Growth rose higher, faster, and stronger.
We created Dough to solve a problem small businesses face every day: fragmented growth. By uniting design, marketing, and sales into one system, we help momentum build and results rise. Our goal isn’t just to deliver quick wins, but to create scalable systems that keep working long after the first campaign ends

We don’t sell slices. We bake the loaf.
As Design Lead at Dough, Jarred makes sure every touchpoint builds trust, not just looks good. He has seen firsthand how rushed and inconsistent branding stalls growth — and how strong design, rooted in strategy, can multiply it. His process begins with questions, not decoration, aligning design with sales and marketing so that the entire system works together. In Dough’s recipe, design is the crust — the first thing people see, and the signal that what’s inside is worth choosing.
When he’s not designing, you’ll find Jarred with his family and two dogs, soaking up Asheville’s hiking trails and exploring new breweries.
