LEARN FROM MY MISTAKES & SAVE YOURSELF A LOT OF FUCKING TIME.
Design your website exactly like the one you see on Pinterest without purchasing the template or asking the designer for permission.
(DON'T DO THIS)
Portray yourself within your brand as someone you simply are not (Ex. Coming off more corporate or "professional" than you actually feel comfortable being)
Make your brand in exactly one day without putting any forethought on brand goals, dream clients, or brand adaptation.
Purchase a template or invest in a website buildout (and if you don't have the funds for either... do your research & build your own!)
(DEFINITELY DO THIS)
Be exactly who you fucking are within your brand. If you like to be crazy and wild... BE CRAZY AND WILD. Remember that your brand is an extension of you.
Give yourself a few weeks or months to REALLY think about what you want for your brand and how its going to look in a few years.
