Brandi’s Interview on SocialLinus – Episode 103 - a podcast by Brandi Sea

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This week we’re sharing an interview Brandi did on another podcast with one of her design college alumni. They chat about how Brandi got her business going, choosing motivation, and process (of course).



Takeaways from today’s episode: 



* Motivation is a choice. It is a mindset we must choose.

* Take advantage of the spare minutes.

* Find things that are keeping you from being productive and start setting boundaries with those things. 

* Creativity is still work. Sometimes you may not feel creative, but push through and choose to be creative.

* When designing, it shouldn’t be about feelings it should be the objective choosing of things. Especially when it comes to something as important as brands.

* Things you collect can inform your creativity. They help you become passionate about something and that helps your design work.

* Give your client a few options, but keep the number down to a few, 3 is a good number. It will save you many frustrations and you will avoid the “mystery cake” design.

* Authenticity in branding is key.
