❌ ❌ ❌ Are you guilty of repeating the same passwords or just changing the last digit when it's time to create a new one?

Do you have them all written down on a piece of paper? OR even worse, stored in the Notes app or somewhere in the Cloud? It's time to move on to the world of strong and secure passwords. 🔗

I'm not going to lie... it wasn't that long ago that I was guilty of this too. But when I started my online business and had my clients' passwords to keep safe, something had to give.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, I strongly recommend utilizing a password manager. I love . And no, I'm not an affiliate, but maybe I should be!?

Today is . Make today the day that you commit to slowly starting to make each of your passwords unique, strong, and secure.

Feel free to DM me if you have any questions about how and why I made the switch successfully.

Whoop, whoop! 🎉 Head over to www.mosaicfs.org to check out the final product.

Who says you can't add color and personality to a therapy office website!? It was important to keep the site authentic and true to the owners, Jeremy and Kaula. They envisioned a site that was warm and welcoming but gave prospective new clients a glimpse into who they are as therapists. I think we hit the nail on the head. 💪🏼

‼️Avoid slow page loading times ‼️

When designing a website, it’s important to make sure your graphics and images are sized appropriately. Otherwise, you might end up with slow page loading times or images that don’t load at all. Yikes! 😱

✅The optimal file size for images on a website is no more than 200 KB so make sure you compress your images!

✅The ideal full-screen image size is 1920 x 1080 pixels. They should never be more than 2560 pixels wide.

✅Standard-sized images ideally have a max-width of 1000 pixels.

✅You can get away with 500 pixels for smaller images.

✅Really small items such as icons and arrows can be about 150 pixels wide.

A strong brand or a beautiful website cannot be created without having your story behind it. 📓

I have my clients fill out an in-depth branding questionnaire and we discuss it on a 1:1 strategy call before any design work happens.

I want to understand their story, their why, and their dreams for the future. It helps me be able to design branding and websites that not only resonate with their audience but resonate with them. 🤍

Both are an absolute must. Double-tap this post if you agree.

Here’s a recent branding project I did. It was super fun! 🤗

Kaitlin had brand colors in mind but wasn’t sure if they worked well together. I did some research on color theory and color psychology and found some variations that paired well together and spoke to her target audience.

I hope your new logos and branding give you a boost of confidence and sets your business apart from your competition. You are killing it! Thanks for being such a fun client to work with 🙂

Colors have a powerful way of evoking certain emotions. 🌈

Color psychology is an important component of marketing decisions. Picking the wrong color for marketing materials can actually discourage potential customers. 🎨

What colors speak to your target audience? How do you want your ideal customers to feel about your product or service? 🤔

Make sure you consider color psychology when creating a brand and logo for your business. I'd be happy to share my advice if you need it! 👋🏼

Business owners-- let us know if you've utilized color psychology in your marketing. 👇🏼

It’s time! 🔥

I’ve been working hard behind the scenes honing in on my design skills.

I am excited to share that I will be offering custom branding services. Creating a solid brand strategy is a super important foundation for your business! There’s a lot more that goes into creating a brand than just logo and colors. Your business should tell its audience a story! 📖
