The Brand Stylist Academy

The layout, the info, everything... it was a pleasure taking this course. The course and Fiona's books have been directly impacting my business as I dive deeper in the direction I'm taking to serve my dream clients. Thank you, Fiona. Still working on it, eight months in, but so worth it.

Good clear content and interesting exercises. I would have liked more and so I look forward to Level 2!

A fantastic course! I’m delighted to have undertaken the “Colour for Creatives: Level One” course and am so grateful that The Brand Stylist caught my eye at just the right time for me and my Business start-up. I absolutely loved getting a sketchbook back out and “playing” with colour, illustrations, fonts etc. Feeling excited about my brand!.... and confident that it will resonate with my customer base. Now for the “The Naming Masterclass” to hopefully validate my choice of Business name! Thank you Fiona! X

I loved the course! It gave me a clear vision for my brand. I can make better decisions with confidence. Now I just have to do the work with all the inspiration I got!

I've thoroughly worked through and LOVED both of Fiona's books, How to Style Your Brand, and Brand Brilliance. Colour for Creatives: Level One builds on both and takes the information in both books to an entirely new level. This course is exactly what I needed, right when I needed it. It's ultra clarifying, inspiring, exciting, confidence-boosting, lively and fun! I'm an independent musician, I produce my own recordings, and have been working with Fiona's books for about a year on both artwork and promotion for my most recent album, to celebrate it's release. I'm certainly making the music I've always made, and am still basing artwork and other design decisions on instinct, but I now have access to tons of visual and copy inspiration to bring me to new places, as well as new frameworks within which to place decisions - so all of this work is now both easier and supercharged! The biggest shift for sure has been to improve the way I'm able to communicate - both in copy and visuals - how my music sounds and feels so that people can understand that at first glance. This is much clearer now as a result of working with Fiona's directed questions - they require time, but over time, the answers take shape, get clearer and this process is totally worthwhile. Peers notice a difference in my materials and more people come to our concerts! I felt a little sheepish at first, reading about 'branding', because I am a musician, not a product, and yet I'd also come to realize that I needed to acquire some business know-how. But every time I ventured into the 'music business' I was so uncomfortable - it never resonated with my own aims or values. I am SO grateful to have found The Brand Stylist! Fiona's style is artistic, creative, personal, it's so easy to relate to as an artist and so easy to adapt to suit my goals and values - and even helps me to clarify those. I highly recommend this course! I didn't have to change my values or pretend to be 'business-minded' rather than 'artistically-minded' in order to achieve concrete business results from this work - I simply learned to express through branding what I was already expressing in my music and concerts - and that resonates deeply. That I can get into! I have never had so much fun learning about business - Fiona's approach to branding is like artistry - so it becomes an extension of what I was already creating. It's from the inside out. It comes from me, and I can be totally true to myself while using these new business skills! I'm sure I know more - much more - about myself as an artist now because of this course and these books on branding. What a result! This is so much more than I imagined it could be! I'm in! I'm ready for more! Many many thanks Fiona, Megan

This course is laid out beautifully and is quite thought-provoking. It opened my eyes and mind to a whole different level of color psychology and cannot wait to use what I have learned!

As a designer, this is an excellent course for anyone who wants to learn how to work with colors and take advantage of it. This is such an inspiration!

Thank you soooo much for making this an online course, for those of us across the other side of the world. This course was jam packed with so much detail on the seasonal colour palettes, that I finally had a light bulb moment, that I personally am Spring (bubbly etc) but my business is Summer with a dash of Winter for the 'expertness' you mentioned. Thank you, thank you. Worth every penny!! It was also really encouraging as a designer to realise that I was actually not doing so bad and my instincts are inline with some of what you were saying (I very rarely use black). I also just finished my copy of Brand Brilliance which was just amazing! I couldn't get to sleep at night I was so excited with the practicalness of your questions and inspiring thinking throughout the book. You really do inspire and bring such a light and energy to a topic so dear to my heart. Thank you again. Blessings, Chrystal :o)

I'm so glad I did this. I'm endlessly fascinated by colour and the psychology of it, so this course was the perfect foundation. As well as expertly explaining the basics, Fiona gives great examples and case studies that allow us to see exactly how and why the principles work. I've already made some tweaks to my branding and will be implementing what else I've learnt asap! Thank you Fiona :)

As a business still in it’s infancy (18 months) I really wish I had known about this course 2 years ago!! It has been so insightful and has really made me focus on my future business aspirations. I am so excited to be clear on my business seasonal personality and I am just working on the final details to ensure they are perfect for my brand, beyond excited and THANK YOU Fiona your course has been invaluable, Trish

I stopped booking seminars, classes or workshops where I get further eduction on subjects I am interested in. Mostly because I left these classes and was disappointed on what I learned (or better not learned), how the material was to theoretic and how much they costed. I started to buy a lot of books to learn what I wanted to know instead. Fionas online courses are the exact opposite. They are theoretical and practical, they are fun and sympathetic and time flys by while attending them. I learned a lot, it didn't feel like learning at all. The mixed media was perfect change to set up my mind new on the same subject. I instantly bought the second class and can't wait for more. I even booked a workshop in England (I am from germany) to attend to a workshop live, because I am so happy with how the classes work and the results I am getting off them. Thank you so much, keep going, I can't wait for more classes! Lilly

This course was so helpful for getting ideas & designing everything for my new coaching business !
