The Canva Pro Brand Kit organizes your logo variations, color palette, and fonts. Once you set up your brand kit, Canva will conveniently store your brand elements.

Your professional website should be your hardest working employee - it should consistently push your visitors through your sales funnel and function as a system that allows you to spend your time how you want (without worrying about work!). 

Your website is often the first impression you make with potential clients so it needs to be memorable, carefully planned, and strategically designed. This takes time and specific skills and that’s why a lot of entrepreneurs turn to alternatives rather than DIY their website.

Copywriting Exercises for Beginners

Regardless of your niche, there is one skill that ALL online entrepreneurs must have - copywriting. Writing good copy is how you connect with your target audience and convince them to choose your brand over your competitors. So, learning how to write good copy is necessary for the success of your business.

Yes, it’s true that copywriting is a skill that requires practice and study. You have to keep up with trends, best practices, and the psychological aspect, and you have to actually put all that studying into practice!

This is something we learned very early with our business. You can have a really great offer, but if the message doesn’t hit all the right points, then you won’t be able to connect with your audience. So we put A LOT of effort into polishing up our copywriting skills, understanding the psychology, and looking at...

Marketing vs. Branding

So let’s talk about a big one: marketing vs branding.

You’ve probably been hit with a lot of buzzwords like ROI, synergy, retargeting… and so many others that by now you’ve created your own little biz-lingo dictionary. And it’s also likely that marketing and branding are the two words you see and hear most often. 

Marketing and branding often get lumped together, but they are very different. 

  • Marketing is the actions and strategies you implement to bring your audience to your offers. 
  • Branding is everything that makes your business unique and special - your purpose, vision, values, and goals.
