BEHIND THE BUSINESS: WHAT MYLIU REALLY MEANS

WHAT MYLIU (MY•LOO) REALLY MEANS
When I started this business back in 2020, I didn’t want a trendy name with no meaning. I wanted something that felt like me... something that carried roots, love, and intention.
That’s where Myliu (pronounced my•loo) came from.
WHAT DOES “MYLIU” MEAN?
In Lithuanian, myliu means “I love.” So when I paired it with marketing, it became Myliu Marketing — literally “I love marketing.” And honestly? That couldn’t be more true.

Fun fact: if you say aš tave myliu in Lithuanian, it means “I love you.” So the name carries a double meaning... love for this work, love for my clients, and love for the people I get to walk alongside.
WHY I CHOSE IT
Because branding isn’t just logos and websites. It’s relationships. It’s stories. It’s trust. To me, Myliu is a reminder that my clients aren’t just projects on a checklist — they’re humans, with dreams and fears and visions for their lives.
And I care. Like really care. About their success. About their story. About making them feel seen. That’s why I’ll always be a friend first and a designer second. The design matters, but the relationship? That’s where the magic happens.
WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
When you work with Myliu Marketing, you’re not getting cookie-cutter templates or surface-level pretty. You’re getting a brand and website built with intention, strategy, and heart. The kind of design that actually makes you feel proud of your business... and makes your clients feel confident saying “yes.”
THE HEART OF IT ALL
So yeah, Myliu technically translates to “I love.” But in practice? It’s bigger than that. It’s about loving the work, loving the people I get to serve, and loving the chance to build brands that feel like home for my clients.
Because at the end of the day, Myliu Marketing isn’t just about marketing. It’s about connection. It’s about showing up as a friend, and letting the design flow from there.

![🥹 Guys I want to cry about this one -
To kick off this sappy caption, Molly is an absolute rock star of a human being and I am 100% a better person because of her 🤍
@bookkeepingbymolly has been an internet friend of mine for about a year now and I straight up just asked her one day that when she was ready for a rebrand, if I could do it for her.. and ofc, she said yes 💍
Throughout our friendship and time working together she has let me: email her late-night (bcuz working moms lol), take creative control, and allowed me to just be so authentically myself.
(If you guys saw our DMs you’d think we’ve been friends for decades lol.)
She is such a hard worker, an amazing mom and a fantastic business owner. If you’re looking for bookkeeping, please inquire on her website 😉
All of this to say, I’m so proud to be this little piece of her journey and I can’t wait to watch her keep kicking ass 🤍
www.bookkeepingbymolly.com is now live everywhere 🥰
Love you to bits, Molly 🤍
[I hope to do another post soon on what went into this logo suite, but I just adore the concept of taking a business owners messy books and untangling them to where they can make empowered decisions.]
