Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Studio Mise is a small business branding and systems agency, led by a working chef. We don't rent you marketing. We build the operational infrastructure your business runs on: brand, site, booking, payments, and automation, end to end.

Chef Sabrina leads every engagement. With 15+ years in professional kitchens, she brings a standard of precision that carries into every system we ship. The same instinct that organized a walk-in also organized a database, automated a follow-up, and debugged a booking flow.

The free brand audit is for businesses that complete our audit form (www.studiomisehq.com/brand-audit) and have enough information about their business for our system to be worthwhile for them. Submitting the form doesn't guarantee a selection, but every submission is reviewed carefully.

Your client portal. Once you become a Studio Mise client, you log in to The Station to run your business through your own CRM, access your files, and manage the system we build for you. Log in at station.studiomisehq.com.

We work with all types of culinary businesses, from home cooks to master chefs. That includes private chefs, caterers, restaurants, food trucks, home bakers, and cottage food operators. If you cook for a living, we build the digital side of your business with the same standards you hold on the line: booking, payments, follow-up, and the systems that let you stop working off your phone.

Prep ($297/mo), Plate ($497/mo), and Present ($997/mo). Prep covers foundational digital presence, including an AI-enhanced website, a chat widget, Google Business Profile setup, and automated bookings, invoices, and contracts. Plate adds outreach tools, SMS campaigns, and social media planning. Present is the full platform for established culinary businesses, with 24/7 AI lead qualification and live chat. Each tier is a flat monthly subscription with no setup fees and no surprise agency invoices.

Every engagement starts with a free brand audit. We review your brand presence, booking flow, and follow-up, then hand you a straight report of what's broken and what it's costing you. No obligation attached.

Yes. That's Studio Mise | Deconstructed. Same method, same infrastructure, rebuilt for barbers, braiders, detailers, cleaners, landscapers, mobile techs, and other service operators. Off menu. On purpose.

The platform infrastructure, pricing, and cultural commitment are identical. The only difference is the positioning. Studio Mise uses culinary language and frameworks. Deconstructed strips that away for operators who have nothing to do with the culinary side. Same power, different context.

Blueprint ($297/mo), Build ($497/mo), and Operate ($997/mo). Blueprint covers foundational digital presence. Build adds advanced workflows and outreach tools. Operate is the full platform for established multi-service businesses. No setup fees.

We operate on a flat-rate platform subscription model with three tiers for each lane. Subscriptions start at $297/month and cover your website, CRM, automated bookings, reputation management, and more. There are no setup fees, no surprise agency invoices, and no vague retainers.

This is Phase 1 of our method, applied to your business. The audit is free for every submission. We review your public links, current customer journey, brand direction, and audit form answers, then hand you a straight report of what's broken and what it's costing you. No payment required. If your business is selected, we'll offer to move forward by booking the tier that fits your needs. Selected businesses also receive a one-week live preview of their site to review and share. If they don't move forward with a monthly plan, the demo site is taken down and archived in our back-of-house until they're ready to move forward.

Every tier follows an approved launch schedule, so nothing waits on anything it doesn't have to: Prep and Blueprint: 1 to 2 weeks Plate and Build: 2 to 3 weeks Present and Operate: 4 to 5 weeks These timelines assume the business has its accurate information, photos, and business processes ready to go. Build time can move faster or slower depending on how quickly the owner communicates and how much information they provide. Coming in ready with as much detail as possible is the best way to ensure a great launch. The clock starts once you've chosen your tier, paid, and signed your contract in your portal.
