"I am just so overwhelmed with gratitude that I had step away from my dinner with my family to write you this note."
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. Your course & mini-mind were the perfect fit — I told you I’m your ideal client the day we met. 😂 But seriously — starting a business is hard & EVERYONE needs you. ❤️ I NEVER would have thought of these ideas on my own…but they’re a PERFECT fit for my brand! You’re a design genius & I’m so grateful that you took the time to help me figure this out. I’m so damn proud of my brand now!!

And the process of getting there is by becoming the Editor-in-Chief of your brand.

"I felt like I sat down alone in a room with my brand for a one-on-one intensive."
I absolutely loved this course! I felt like I sat down alone in a room with my brand for a one-on-one intensive asking the important, challenging questions. It helped me realize a lot about myself, what ideas no longer matter, and which are a priority. This is a beautiful experience and unfolding of discovery. This course has so much depth, and the content is so rich. The presentation as a whole is organized, pleasing to the eye, and enjoyable to follow. This came right on time, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!

“I feel proud to tell people about my business.”
My brand was feeling outdated, and the inner work I did during The Brand Edit helped me uncover what makes me unique and what my clients were really wanting to see from me. I finally created a brand that’s helped me fill my calendar months in advance, and I’m actually excited to share it with people.

"Honestly, this course has changed everything for me."
When I first decided to join The Brand Edit, I was at the beginning stages of a rebrand for my business. I knew I wanted to change my business and what it was about, but I had no idea what I was going to transition into and in my mind, it was all one big mess filled with so much confusion. Honestly, this course has changed everything for me. The questions in the lessons and the templates helped me profoundly to create the basis of my new brand, what I am going to offer, what I stand for, and even my mission—and the list goes on. This has without a doubt been one of the best investments I have ever made and I really just want you to know how grateful I am for you and your work. Thank you so much!!!!!

“I became sought-after by my ideal customers.”
I was spending so much time chasing every idea I had for my business, not realizing that it was actually hurting my brand. The Brand Edit helped me realize what sets me apart, and this holiday season I was sought out specifically at two different art shows for my unique style and products.
THIS PROGRAM IS PERFECT FOR YOU IF...
JOIN THE BRAND EDIT
You wouldn't necessarily call yourself a brand designer (yet!), but you do love good design. You know what you like and want your brand’s style and experience to be a major focus of your business.
You want to have real impact and create a brand that inspires you, your audience, and your (one day!) team. You love having a plan, and the idea of having your own strategic guidelines for growth makes you feel like a legit entrepreneur.
You know that if you could just understand the branding process for yourself once-and-for-all, you might even be able to help your clients with it.
Since starting my branding studio in 2014, I’ve walked alongside hundreds of creative business owners hoping to launch their idea into the world, live a life free from corporate structure, and reach the elusive idea of online success.
but nowI know how to help!
As a fresh designer in a new big city recovering from an economic crash, I was fully immersed in a world of entrepreneurs and unemployed creatives. Instead of being scared, I felt the buzz of potential. I wanted the world to know about the amazing things my friends were creating. I wanted to get in the game, and was determined to figure out how to make it on my own.
And now, I want to pass along the process I’ve perfected. I want to show you how to create a powerful brand identity of your own! I’m so excited to share this process with you, so that you can feel confident sharing your talents with the world. You deserve to be seen :)
THIS PROGRAM IS THE FIRST TIME I'M SHARING OUR SIGNATURE PROCESS.
After designing and building over 200 unique brand identities and refining a signature process after a decade in the branding space, I’m finally sharing my secrets.

It’s a do-it-like-a-pro approach that breaks down the branding process into easy-to-follow and clear steps that will put you back in the editor’s chair so that you can begin promoting and building your business.
I'll share stories from our clients, lessons from building Drop Cap Design™, and industry secrets that will dispel the idea that your brand isn't yours to build. I want you to leave this program feeling inspired, confident, and in the driver's seat of your business - because YOU'RE the editor. And you can do this.
THIS PROGRAM INCLUDES EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO BUILD A BRAND STORY & ESTABLISH YOUR UNIQUE STYLE.
You’ll walk away from this course with a fully complete, strategic, and beautifully organized Brand Guide, one part story and one part style.

How long do I have to decide if I want to join this program?

Frequently Asked Questions
I’ve already spent so much money trying to create a brand, what if this doesn’t work?
We know it’s a risk, and when you’re so burned out from trying every template and trend, it’s scary to continue to invest. But that’s why we offer our DCD guarantee. If this program doesn’t give you the confidence, clarity, and direction that you’ve been looking for - you can get back every single penny.
I’m not a designer, can I really style my brand?
You don’t need to be a designer to build (or style) a brand. This is not a course for designers or intended to turn you into a designer (but you'll probably be tempted when you see how much fun it is!) It’s a course about teaching you how to become the editor of your brand, so that every touchpoint you have with your customer adds to their overall experience with your business and you’re in control over how your business is perceived. The fact that you’ll also learn how to style your brand, and become familiar with good design in the process, is truly icing on the cake.
I’m pressed for time, how long will this course take?
I’ve broken the program into six chapters that you’ll be able to complete (alongside your business) as quickly as you'd like. While some sections may require more of your time than others based on your existing skill set, I’ve intended for the course materials to take 3 hours each week to allow you to launch in 30 days.
How long will I have access to the course and all the materials?
The course content will be available in its entirety as soon as you are in the program, and your access to course materials will be available for the entire lifetime of the course. If at any point in the future we decide to archive this program, you will have ample notice and the ability to download and store course materials for future reference.
