Brands often want to showcase everything that they offer upfront. But until you become well known for helping people achieve one specific thing, you shouldn’t try to be known for doing too many things.

💡 When starting out, focus on one simple thing your customers want and create your marketing around that message.

Story is your greatest marketing weapon, because it compels people to listen. Here’s your marketing storyline in a nutshell:

Your CUSTOMER 🧑 wants something and encounters a PROBLEM 🛑 preventing them from getting what they want.

At the peak of their despair, YOU🚶step into their lives, give them a PLAN📝 to solve their problem (buying your product) and call them to ACTION.💥

Their purchase helps them avoid FAILURE ⛈️ and get what they WANT. ☀️

While I’m a big fan of hiring out work that’s not the critical stuff only you can do, there are times you need to DIY for a while. (Especially if you’re just starting out.) So, here’s a guide for those of you who are DIY-ing your graphic design but still want a professional look for your brand.

Did you know that every relationship with a customer moves though the same 3 phases?

❓ Stage 1: Curiosity
How are you drawing your potential customer in? Tip: the only thing that makes a customer curious about you is if you have something that will help them survive and thrive.

💡 Stage 2: Enlightenment
After we've piqued a customer's curiosity, they want to learn more. When we enlighten our customers, we tell them HOW we can help them survive. Without this, a relationship will fizzle.

🤝 Stage 3: Commitment
A commitment translates to a purchase. Only after a customer has passed through stages 1 & 2 will they be willing to commit. Not before.

Someone will only put their money on the line (commit!) after you've made them curious and you've enlightened them. A lot of marketing campaigns ask for the commitment way too soon, and that leads to very few sales. If you ask for a commitment for the customer is ready, you come off as pushy and demanding. Take the time to go through all 3 stages instead!

The Fairview House project was a ground-up creative process with a website agency colleague.

I provided art direction for a custom photoshoot featuring the many amenities of the luxury vacation getaway and mocked up a couple of website layout options for their team to choose from.

They then built the custom site to help guests book their perfect group getaway in Highlands, NC.

Honesty time: Is your website making you money? 💵 Or does it look nice but doesn't actually grow your business? 😬

Your website should be a place where you sell your customer a product that solves their problem and makes their lives better. It is not a place to celebrate yourself.

Kind words from clients always make my day! It was a privilege to help Christine and Kevin apply their new branding to the marketing collateral they needed to match their new website. We looked at several design options for their business cards, letterhead, and mailing envelopes to help them narrow in on what they wanted. Now they’re looking sharp and ready to help a new class of students win the college admissions game!
