Check Out Vanessa's Transformation! From dull DIY branding, to professional, eye-catching, scroll stopping branding that shows off her business’s unique style and personality. Vanessa was a 'best-kept secret' in her niche. Now her dream clients see her as the best designer of Victorian style interiors.
Meet Vanessa
When I met Vanessa, she was just starting her eDesign biz. She was DIY-ing it all and burnt out doing everything herself from her branding, website, to social media - which were a bit of a mess. But she had mad skills and was into Victorian-style designs, helping people transform their homes into modern-meets-Victorian beauties with an edge!
Her branding didn't match her vibe. It was too loud and not only did it not show her unique style, but repelled her clients as well. She didn't have a consistent look, which made it hard for the clients she really wanted to find her.
PRO TIP: Your branding should be consistent throughout all your channels. From your social media, website, branding, graphics - your business should tell a unique story through your branding. This helps to build a recognizable brand across all your platforms for better marketing.
What Vanessa Needed
Vanessa was struggling with setting up her biz, so she came to me for help from one of our shared interior design Facebook groups. We needed to get to the heart of who she was as a designer to create a brand that totally rocks! She wanted to show off her own unique style and tell her story through her biz.
I recommended Vanessa my VIP Intensive to audit her Instagram + Website (to set-her business up for success + cover both platforms), with professional BRANDING + WEBSITE guidance (so that she could market like a pro versus winging it!)
During our 1:1 intensive I helped Vanessa nail down:
Who her dream client was ✔️ We figured important traits of her the people she most wanted to work with, like their interests, needs, and problems.
What her design style was ✔️ Defining a specific design style helped us attract the clients who would be interested in the aesthetics that she enjoys working in/with the most.
And her desired niche was ✔️ If you want everyone to like you, your marketing will flop. That's why we honed in on a CUSTOM niche that's perfect for her true ideal client. This way, she can talk their language and really make a connection to a specific target audience.
What I Did to Transform Her Brand
When Vanessa and I chatted, she told me all about how much she adores Victorian style and edginess. I took that intel and used it to refresh her brand in the right way without being too bold (her current struggle). I made a softer elevated color palette (before it was loud and too distracting). Also having consistent font styles (versus random ones with bold, italics and underlined). I even repurposed her skull logo that captured the essence of her brand but in a more approachable way that felt professional. Vanessa is one-of-a-kind, and that's something to celebrate and show off to attract her tribe! We ditched her old screen name and gave her a legit business name. We also changed up her headshot to show off her cool tattoos and let her audience see the face behind the biz. It's all about showcasing the real you. But that's not all. We also came up with a clear Instagram strategy so Vanessa can rock her marketing game and attract those dream clients who vibe with her unique style.

brand from drab to FAB.
