Consider yourself a brand, a commodity. What would you like your customers to know about you? In this 90 minute workshop we will work to identify who you are as a brand, then explore how to use this information to get the types of projects, jobs and clients you desire.
A well thought-out brand gives you the confidence to say yes to the right projects and no to ones that are not what you really want to do.
Agenda:
Introduction to branding Identifying your target market Who you are as a brand-hands-on exercise Writing the brand statement Crafting your new collateral: business card, resume, elevator pitch How does this change what you are currently doing Crafting a killer LinkedIn Profile
Speaker Bio:
Susan Straub-Martin is a passionate artist, storyteller and purveyor of hugs. Her childhood nickname, "freckle-faced strawberry", inspired her company names, Strauberry Studios and Strauberry Graphics. In 1984 she established the studio in San Diego, as a boutique greeting card company which quickly grew as a graphic design firm.
In 1998 Susan moved herself and her studio to Seattle where she continues to work on diverse graphic design projects. She has illustrated international brands for highly respected companies including Disney and Warner Brothers.
Susan began drawing at the age of five with a box of 64 crayons and never lost her love for children's books and stuffed animals. She continued drawing unique characters in her own style.
An appreciation of cartoons and those unique characters inspired Susan to begin writing and illustrating children's books and creating character toys.
