Level Two is all about giving you the confidence, know-how and perspective to build brand identities for your clients that will resonate in the right way and a process to be able to consistently deliver strategic and on-brief designs.

capture the essence, master the nuances, always deliver on brief

The Resonant Brand Method brings an unparalleled rigour that allows you to both craft brands with atmosphere and consistently deliver on-brief. Commercially this means a more efficient, effective process, increased creative confidence and more recommendations. We'll explore how, through a series of insightful case studies, detailed presentations and self-guided projects that you can use to build out your skillset and up level your confidence.

Confidently apply the seasonal personalities to your clients brands

There's an art to picking a 'season' for a project and through a series of narrated presentations, in-depth case studies and timely checkpoints you'll gain the insight and the tools you need to start things out on the right strategic foot. There is no question that colour psychology is complex and nuanced but by building up your knowledge steadily in Level One, you'll leave this course ready to implement this powerful framework with integrity.

Build deeper levels of trust with your clients

The Resonant Brand Method will give you a framework to bring an unprecedented level of depth and understanding to your work, the rigour to follow that through creatively and the tools to articulate your expertise at each stage. The natural result of this is that your clients have a deeper faith and trust in you and are no longer compelled to micro-manage, leaving you creatively free, to do your best work and build your business in the most sustainable way.

Navigate the feedback process with confidence and ease

The language and perspectives you'll gain through what you learn in this course will allow you to work through the feedback and refinement process in a whole new way. Far from being something to dread, you'll find the whole experience a lot more positive. For starters, colour psychology enables you to deliver on-brief work, so your client is likely to ask for small tweaks rather than big rethinks. Secondly, you'll be able to objectively articulate why what you've created works at a commercial level, gaining trust, working collaboratively and navigating the process with ease.

FAQ

  • I have a good understanding of colour psychology, can I just buy Level Two?

    No, this programme is only available as a complete collection and that's because you need a deep and solid understanding of Colour Psychology if you are to apply the Resonant Brand Method with integrity. Colour psychology looks simple and instinctive, but it's nuanced, layered and requires a deep understanding if you're to use this with integrity. I've been thrilled with which colour psychology has caught the imagination of our industry but I've also seen countless examples of misunderstandings, misinformation and misrepresentation. It's essential to me that this framework is used with integrity and therefore, I am only selling this as a two-level programme, so that I can be certain you have all of the foundations in place before you apply it.

  • Can I get a refund if this isn't for me?

    No, thank you for asking. As a digital product, and by definition, un-returnable, sales are final and non refundable. I am yet to meet a brand designer that this wouldn't benefit, however, should you have any questions about whether this is right for you, please do email me.

  • What level of designer is this aimed at?

    This programme is designed for brand designers at all levels - from those of you just starting out to those of you with decades of experience. I've worked with, and mentored, hundreds of designers
