Key Takeaways:

  • Trust Experts: Just because you can DIY doesn’t mean you should. Professional designers bring in strategies like color psychology to elevate your brand beyond aesthetics.

  • Brand Evolution: It’s okay to rebrand in phases according to your budget and needs. Iterate and evolve as your business grows to better reflect your identity and offerings.

  • Authenticity Matters: Your brand should resonate with who you genuinely are. Working with a designer who understands you can steer you away from inauthentic choices and ensure alignment with your true personality.
