This. So much of this. When you hold a solution to make someone’s life better, you don’t need to radically change their life with your service or product, you just have to make it better for you to be a solution to their problem. But you have to be clear and consistent with your message so it’s heard and remembered. So show up, buckle up, do it from a place of service and it will pay off. 💜🙌🏼 You can do this, I know you can. . . . . #dearsolopreneur #solopreneurship #creativebusiness #keepgoingforward #yougotthisgirl

I love working with clients through the years, and this right here is from Katy's site. I get to update her site with new portfolio pieces, testimonials, and little details. Let me tell you: It's amazing to see the growth and talent just get better and better with the years 💜. I love setting my clients up to feel empowered to use their site, but it's a reality: You get busy with the next level of business and by wearing your CEO hat you learn to delegate and make smarter investments, like handing off your site. I have a Designer On Tap program where clients get to keep me on a monthly basis to help them with many random tasks so they can keep focused on their money-making business tasks. Interested? Send me a DM and let's chat, because that might be just what you need! 😁 #brandingdesign #branddesigner #showit #showiteer #showitdesigner #graphicdesignerforcreatives #webdesigner #websitedesignerforcreatives #brandexperience #creativebiz #elevatecultivate #communityovercompetition #risingtidesociety #brandstylist #herestothecreatives #dreamersanddoers

Back to work and it feels SO GOOD. 💃🏻 Fun fact, I don't stop my morning tea even on winter break. And this mug is accurate AF. As a feeling (INFP) and nurturer (2w3 on the Enneagram), I can tell you: I am a hugger and I hug with intention. 🤗 I think it's my way of trying to convey my appreciation or love in a tiny moment of connection. Vulnerable moment: The weird part is that when I get super stressed, my husband always wants to hug me and I want to sneak away. But hugging creates a chemical reaction in the brain that eases the nervous system, so I actually need to stop and let the snuggle happen. For science (and less anxiety). #hugsandscience #cutemugs #truthbombs #creativestudio #branddevelopment #creativeprocess #beingboss #brandstrategy #createcultivate #designtip #redesign #branddesigner #brandphotography #bookings

Nerd alert 🚨 I love learning and one of my favorite things is to keep digging into color psychology and how it affects business-customer interactions. For real. Color and tone can help position a business for success with connecting with the right clients, or totally break it. Are you confident in your color palette and what it's communicating? 🤔 It may be time to get your brand checked and refreshed my friend. #brandingdesign #branddesigner #showit #showiteer #showitdesigner #graphicdesignerforcreatives #webdesigner #websitedesignerforcreatives #brandexperience #creativebiz #elevatecultivate #communityovercompetition #risingtidesociety #brandstylist #herestothecreatives #dreamersanddoers

Can I tell you a secret?....I'm 30 years old, but even after all the traveling I've had the pleasure to do for work, I have not experienced real snow. Granted, I am terrible in cold weather 😬Yet, I want to see some real fluffy snow. Am I crazy 🤣?! #truthbetold #IWantSomeSnow #ButILoveSunnyDays

Why is Ingrid holding a camera? 🤔 Well, I see some new faces around here that might not know: I'm a brand + web designer as well as a commercial brand photographer 📸Why mix my skills for a design studio? Well, I just talked about confidence, and let me tell you, confidence is KEY to reaching the next level of your business. Your success will look different than mine, or that other gal over there, but in the end, there are some things we can all do to reach it: 🔹Have a strategic brand in place — major confidence foundation 🔹Have a beautiful and high-converting website — because you want to be found, but you need to convert those who find you 🔹Professional images — you want to match your professional standards and reputation? Don't let bad imagery shave off the pro and leave you on amateur land. Online business means we WILL be judged by our looks first, and then we will get the chance to show what we can do. So those 3 pillars will set you apart. These are your non-negotiables. #communicationdesign #letterpress #personalbranding #coverdesign #creativestudio #branddevelopment #creativeprocess #beingboss #brandstrategy #createcultivate #designtip #redesign #branddesigner #brandphotography #bookings

My word right now? Confidence. I have planned, wrote it down, and it's time to live it. Confidence can be scary for a 2w3 INFP like me. I am sensitive, and soft feelings are not suited for business. 💁🏻♀️ But I guess my 10 years in business kinda prove it wrong, ha! I am excited to ditch the little doubts that feel like boulders and practice what I preach. So confidence it is. Confidence is actually, for my woo woo friends, the one and only direct door to getting what you want. That personal version of success that your brand is supposed to bring to you? That is how you achieve it. 🔑 Sometimes confidence looks like a brand refresh or a better website. Why? How can these things pour confidence into your life? Because they are the changes that will push you to step into that confidence zone where you know what you bring to the table, what benefits you can give to your clients, and how amazing you are at doing so. If you feel a bit lost with that, you know where to find me 😉 #brandingdesign #branddesigner #showit #showiteer #showitdesigner #graphicdesignerforcreatives #webdesigner #websitedesignerforcreatives #brandexperience #creativebiz #risingtidesociety #brandstylist #herestothecreatives #dreamersanddoers #businessprofessional #soulpreneur #businessmom #youngentrepreneurs #thefutureisfemale #womensupportwomen #womenintech #bosswomen

Laser focus. That's one of the things that I will continue to hone this year. 2019 was the year I niched DOWN. Like, DOWN DOWN DOWN. And that brought so much joy to my projects and I could really shine in what I do best. 😍 Which is what we all want, right? We don't want to work on things that don't bring us joy. 🤷🏻♀️ If you could drop the projects that don't spark a resounding YES PLEASE, what would your super laser-focused niche look like? #entrepreneurialmindset #intentionalliving #empowered #businessprofessional #soulpreneur #businessmom #youngentrepreneurs #thefutureisfemale #womensupportwomen #womenintech #bosswomen #businesssuccess #onlineentrepreneur #youareenough #buildyourbusiness

I think part of my title should be personal cheerleader. Every project I get to work on has my heart, and as such, when I see posts like my friend Annmarie does over at @cityhousecollective my heart skips a beat because it's such an amazing feeling to see projects bloom and turn bigger than what you imagined. In the sappiest of ways, I can tell you, I'm always feeling proud to be part of journeys like hers. I get to see the hard work pay off and you know what? I want to be a part of yours, I want to cheer for you. 💕 Tell me, what is one victory moment through your time in business that you remember and can't help but smile? #celebrateeveryday #celebrateeveryday #celebrateeverything #growyourbusiness #femaleceo #femalepreneur #womanentrepreneur #womenintheworld #girlpreneur #bosswoman #bosschic #buildingbossladies #bossladies #bosschicks #bossbabetribe #femalehustler #womenhelpingwomen #womenceo #bossmom #dontquityourdaydream
