Logo Masterclass
The client said yes, the deposit is paid, but what happens now?
If you feel unsure how to come up with good logo ideas, do brand research and manage clients, you are not alone.
Almost 10 years ago, we started our creative studio and had absolutely no idea what we were doing. Luckily, we stuck with it and 85+ projects later, we are excited to share everything we could not find answers to in those early days.
All that to say, we get the second guessing, excitement and passion for building a business that works for you.
We hope what we share can be actionable, encouraging and relatable for you!
