What all do I need to have for my brand?

You're a woman, you're an entrepreneur, and you need a brand and you don't know where to start. Check out this list for everything you need to include in your brand.




We’ve all spent HOURS in Canva trying to come up with designs for social media, workbooks, our website…


Imma tell you… this is a HUGE waste of your time.


I’m giving you permission to NOT do this anymore


And how you avoid it is really simple.


I’m going to go over exactly what you need in your brand toolkit so that you have everything you need


so you can cut down on the time you spend trying to play designer in Canva by like 90%.


Checklist:


What You Actually Need In Your Visual Brand Toolkit For Success


🔲 LOGO – does not have to be fancy and decorative, keep it simple (that can actually hurt you if it’s not well done).


🔲 SUBMARK (at least 1) – your logo is not always going to fit where you want to put it.


🔲 COLORS – start with HEX codes, that’s what you’ll use the most in the beginning. One light, one dark, one bright and a few neutrals.


🔲 FONTS – this is a no brainer in keeping consistency. Headline, subhead, body copy, script or decorative if you’re feeling it.


🔲 IMAGES – you need images, and if you don’t have your own, grab stock. Think of topics related to your service, grab pictures of things you clients like, find images of what your clients look like after working with you. Unsplash is great for this.


🔲 GRAPHICS – get a little decorative. Lines, patterns, shapes, just add some details.


🔲 A CONTAINER – you need a place to house all of those things. Style guide, brand board, folder system, etc. Canva brand boards are awesome for this because you can copy and paste out of the file right into the files you’re working on - easy is my fave!


BONUS: LAYOUTS – templates for social posts that you can duplicate and use again and again.


That's it!



We tend to make it a lot more complicated than it needs to be. Simplicity is our friend here, and templates are our soulmate.
