  • Building Your Online Presence

    Hi Savvies, today, I am going to share my journey in building my online presence as a designer. I have been getting messages lately from other entrepreneurs and fellow creatives on how they love seeing the things they see about my brand online. The truth is, this didn't happen overnight. Also, I don't have thousands of followers like others, but just enough for people to send me a message to ask how I do it.


    So I hope you enjoy this episode and you can start showing up for your business online.

  • Should I call myself a Graphic Designer

    Calling ourselves something else will confuse our clients so if you design graphics then you are a Graphics Designer. 

    I tried getting fancy with names and trying to create taglines to attract clients but a CONFUSED MIND WON'T BUY! So I stopped getting fancy and went to just calling myself a graphic designer.
