Meet the Women Co-Founders of Clementine

Every great business has a beginning, but Clementine’s started long before logos, samples, or presentations.

It began on Lindsay’s first day at a new school after moving from Texas to California. New place, new faces, until Lynn stepped in. She took Lindsay under her wing, introduced her to friends, and made California feel like home. That small moment sparked a fast and lasting friendship.

Before long, they were inseparable, best friends and doubles partners on the tennis court for three years, learning early how well they worked together as a team.

Even as life took them in different directions, their bond never wavered. College came and went. Careers grew. Weddings happened. Babies arrived. Lynn built her career in the promotional products world, while Lindsay followed her passion into the culinary space.

And through it all, there was a shared dream: one day, we will start something together.

They knew it instinctively; their personalities complement each other perfectly. Where one zigged, the other zagged. Where one dreamed big, the other made it happen. It wasn’t a matter of if, just when.

That moment came in early 2023. Lynn sent a simple text to Lindsay: “I think we should start a promotional marketing company.” Lindsay replied with one word: “Ok.” (And immediately closed her catering business.) Just like that, Clementine Promotions was born.

Built on friendship, trust, and a shared belief that thoughtful merchandise can tell meaningful stories, Clementine is the result of years of partnership, laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

The rest is history and it is only getting juicier, zestier, and more freshly squeezed from here.
