About Make It Urs

The creative team of one brand while it multiplied, now a Growth Companion to others.

In 2022 the Take Ur Seat family needed someone to make everything as it grew: the menus, the signage, the screens, the campaigns, the stickers on the boxes. Not an agency for each opening and a freelancer for the rest. One team, inside the calendar, holding one standard as one brand became three concepts.

That team became Make It Urs.

What one brand becoming three taught us.

  1. If the founder has to be in the room, it is not a system.

    Standards exist so that someone who is not you can make it look like you. That is the whole test, and most brands fail it at location two.

  2. Design for the room, not the screen.

    A menu board has to read from the back of the queue at 7am. A mark has to survive embroidery, a sunlit A-frame, and a takeout bag.

  3. The small pieces are the brand.

    Item labels, seasonal stickers, care cards. They are what a guest actually holds, and what every owner runs out of time for.

  4. Distinct, not different.

    Take Ur Seat, TUS Lite, and +Bake Café share a standard and nothing else that shows. That only works when one hand makes all three.

  5. Work on the kitchen's calendar.

    Creative that arrives the week of is decoration. Creative that arrives before the rush is revenue.

The same way, for more brands at the same moment.

Since 2022 we have run the Take Ur Seat family's creative end to end, and we still do. Other Southern California brands at the same point, a second lease signed, a new concept drawn on a napkin, a first conversation about franchising, asked for the same arrangement. So we opened the door: one project in production at a time, first drafts in 48 hours on the request in production, every location and concept on one plan, pause when the season slows.

We are small on purpose. Each brand has one project in production at a time, or two on the $6,950 a month tier, so work finishes instead of stacking up. That pace serves a handful of brands the way an in-house team would, through every opening, without any of them having to make the hire.

In September 2026 we changed how we work. For years the agency playbook was to post, hit the quota, repeat, and brands ended up with views and no value to show for them. So we stopped being a vendor you hand a task list to. We are a Growth Companion: at the table with the owner, with the creative lined up against profit, operations, and where the brand is going. Every piece has a job, to educate, convert, or retain. We do not hit quotas. We hit targets.

A straight answer on whether we are the right team.

Thirty minutes. We look at your menu, your social, and your newest location page first, then tell you what one team could carry for you and what it would cost. No concepts, no plan document: those are separate, paid pieces of work.
