Are you TOTALLY exhausted of…

🥴

Trying to DIY your logo and your branding?

You know what it should look like in your head, but it’s just not translating. And now, you look cheap. NO ONE BUYS FROM CHEAP.

😵‍💫

Content burnout!?

You’re exhausted when it comes to making content. What color? What font? What template? Nothing feels right, you’re constantly chasing the new designs in Canva, and all the while your gut is telling you there’s a better way.

🤯

Feeling like you’re doing it wrong?

Are you strategic with your brand? You know this could (and SHOULD) be built on a foundation of strategy. But instead, your brand is like a house of cards that you’re a little embarrassed about.

💔

Loneliness?

THIS IS HARD. You don’t have to explore brand building alone. You can have the legitimate, incredible brand you’ve always dreamed of. And you don’t have to do it alone.

HERE’S WHAT I NEED YOU TO KNOW:

Your dreamy clients wants to feel emotionally connected to you

It’s time for you to evolve your business into an obsess-worthy brand. When your brand identity is in total alignment to your business goals, you can more quickly captivate your dreamy client and close the sale. This isn’t about having a pretty brand, it’s about making an emotive connection with who you dream of working with…

I’m Sara. Your coach and cheerleader.

I run a brand agency, helping clients create multi-millions of dollars in revenue through brand strategy and design.

FAQs

  • We meet weekly in Zoom to go over content, however, live content videos, worksheets/homework, and all class materials are delivered via private portal weekly on Monday. It's not a problem if you can't make a call live.

    You’ll also have email support and daily Voxer check ins!

  • You have options!

    Although I love Adobe Creative Suite for maximum design productivity and funtion, you don’t need that like I do. If you have access to Adobe Illustrator*, great! If not, you can use the free online design program, Canva, to create your design assets.

    We’ll provide templates and resources for both, however a basic knowledge of one or the other is necessary for success in this course. We won’t be going over how to use either program. However, we don’t start designing until Week 4… so you have some time to familiarize yourself with these programs.

    Note that designing logos as vector images is standard best practice and would require software like Illustrator. Fear not, though, we’ll chat about some options.

    *If you have Photoshop, we can work with that, too!

  • Yep!

    You have options to select a 1 time payment or 2 monthly payments at checkout. Choose what's best for you.

  • We start Oct 7 and content is delivered weekly through Nov 25. Join the live calls or not, either way, you still get the trainings and materials you need + personalized support from me.

  • You will have exclusive access to add 1:1 coaching time with me at a discounted rate.
