I launched my business over two years ago…and boy have a I learned a lot. I have wasted countless hours on creating (trying to anyway) my own marketing and branding. Yes, I do know that I need to market my business and “brand” myself.
The one probelm…ME! I was convinced that I could do everything myself without the help of a professional. NEVER AGAIN!!!
If there is one word of advice to any new business owner, regardless of the profession…..Hire a professional. You will waste more time, effort, energy, tears, and sanity trying to do things yourself.
Also, the old saying “you get what you pay for” is SOOO true. Last year I invested in a low cost predesigned logo….Simply stated – I didn’t like it.
So this year I did a little research, asked for some referrals and fate led me to my logo/marketing birthmother, Tyra.
Tyra (pronounced Tee-ra) is a genius. It went like this. I emailed her and asked a few questions, she emailed me back right away with a quote and answered my crazy questions. She called me and asked me a few questions about what I really wanted, colors I liked/didn’t like, and what my “vision” was. Mostly I told her what I didn’t like.
In a few days she had 3 logos for me to review…I really liked 2 of the 3 and loved 1. It was a painless, simple, and SUPER FAST process. Best of all NO STRESS!
She created a new logo, this fancy blog header, a Facebook logo, business cards and she’s not done yet. Who knows when I will have her stop 🙂 She just makes things so easy!
Love Her!
If you are in the market for a new logo, or any marketing pieces I strongly suggest working with Tyra.
