Ep 9 Start Simple: Essentials for Building Your Brand Without Breaking the Bank

You don't need a massive budget to start building a strong brand. 

In this episode, Jaime and Jessie share practical tips for branding on a budget, from keeping things simple and consistent with just 2-3 colors and basic fonts, to leveraging Canva templates and free stock photos. 

The conversation also covers the significance of understanding licensing for branding assets and the potential costs associated with poor design choices. We also explain why investing in even a mini brand photo shoot and a simple one-page website matters more than you think. 

If you're a startup or operating with limited resources but have big branding goals, this episode shows you where to focus your energy and dollars first.
