About Bourn Creative
Bourn Creative is a Sacramento web design and graphic design company specializing in online brand design and custom WordPress websites for the Genesis Framework.

Think all web designers and brand strategists are the same? Think again.
There are designers that can make it look pretty, coders that can make it work, and marketers that can sell, but for sustainable, lasting success and the conversions you want, you need all three working together seamlessly … That is exactly what you get when you choose to partner with Bourn Creative.
We’re not your average design company
In working with businesses of all sizes, we regularly gain priceless insights into different business models, strategies, processes, systems, and tactics that work (and sometimes don’t), and we put that knowledge, experience, and unique perspective to work in the strategic planning of your website.
We also walk our talk…
- We speak at both live and virtual seminars, events, conferences, teleclasses, and webinars around the world.
- We attend and sponsor events to learn from other thought leaders, gain new perspectives, hear new ideas, and understand emerging trends.
- We stay up to date with the latest information on topics like SEO, WordPress, web conversion strategy, web analytics, email marketing, list building, online marketing, branding, social media, and more …
Why? So we can create a powerful, strategic, effective, and flexible website for you and your business — one that will work for you now AND in the years to come.
We understand that investing in your site is a big deal, that you need a creative partner who knows what you don’t know, and that you don’t want to have to do it all again in a year or two!
Design For Results, Not Other Designers
When working with our clients we don’t design to look cool to other designers or try to win design awards (although we have earned several). We design for results. We focus on the needs of your business, the actions you want taken, the results you want to see, and the clients you want to attract.
The role of design is much more than making it look pretty … Design must attract attention, grab interest, and support your content to make it quick to access and easy to consume.
Beyond The Design & Site Launch
We’re here as your creative partner to fill in the blanks, support you throughout the process, guide you where needed, and make the planning, design, and development of your site as simple as possible.
Bourn Creative offers complete end-to-end services, including:
- Strategic Planning
- Consulting
- Custom WordPress Design
- Programming
- Content Strategy & Design
- Go-Live Management
- Education & Training
- Brand Strategy & Design
- Print & Graphic Design
We believe that you don’t know what you don’t know … and that you shouldn’t have to “know.” You’re the expert at what you do and that is where your time is best spent.
About Jennifer Bourn
Designer, Strategist, Speaker,
WordPress Lover
I started in electrical engineering (boring!) only until I discovered graphic design, the Adobe Creative Suite and an x-acto knife!
I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in graphic design, five internships completed, and three years design experience at an ad agency. I then worked for a publishing company and a public relations agency. Fed up with agency life and the commute, and two months pregnant, I launched Bourn Creative to pursue my passion for design and marketing.
Today I am Bourn Creative’s creative director, branding expert, and content strategist. I work and consult directly with all Bourn Creative clients on their branding, web site planning and strategy, design, and content marketing strategy.
When not obsessing over pixels, design, fonts, content, alignment, and color, I create content for our email newsletter and blog, tweak our website content and design, and create training courses and workshops.
On a personal note, I’m a mother of two who hates coffee and loves tea. I also love tacos, tequila, non-fruity chocolate, trashy romance novels, smoothies, and City Legos. I’m learning to cook and exploring the vegetarian and vegan worlds. I also, much to Brian’s dismay, spend way too much time at Target and collect A LOT of pretty office supplies.
You can find me on LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Google+.
About Brian Bourn
Chief Executive, Programmer,
WordPress Super Nerd
In 2009, Brian took over the reigns as CEO of Bourn Creative. Today Brian acts as project manager for all of Bourn Creative’s client work and manages the day-to-day operations of the business.
Brian spends most of his working day inside WordPress and the Genesis Framework tweaking code and managing the technical aspects of our website projects. When not deep into coding, he helps our clients with hosting accounts, email marketing opt-ins, plug-ins, and other nerd stuff.
Brian is also in charge of all of our WordPress training and education. He runs the hands-on training sessions for our clients, manages our training materials, and helps create our technical education guides and manuals.
When not working, Brian consumes content like it’s going out of style — his smart phone just makes it worse! Although his thirst for knowledge and an impressive memory make him the worst person to play any type of trivia game with, he can answer pretty much all of my tech questions and is great entertaining us with facts on long road trips!
Brian is also an avid racquetball player and spends much of his downtime playing Legos with our family. He collects Star Wars Legos and enjoys playing Lego robots with our son and going on dates with our daughter.
