From a quintessentially English vineyard in the Sussex Weald, to an organic Australian skincare range, an enchanting Yorkshire estate complete with Michelin starred restaurant and many, many more in between.
My work has been featured in publications such as Conde Nast Traveller, House and Garden, Harpers Bazaar and the Sunday Times to name just a few. My books have topped the bestseller lists for five consistent years and Brand Brilliance was named by The Independent newspaper as one of the Top Ten Books for Entrepreneurs.
I set up The Brand Stylist with one clear mission: to empower entrepreneurs to create truly extraordinary brands and I’ve spent the last ten years developing the ultimate collection of branding resources and courses to help you do just that.

Read MoreI really enjoyed "Creating your brand: Where to start". Fiona encouraged some deep & insightful questions, which I loved, because they made me realize how much more clarity was needed in my brand messaging and imagery. Incidentally, I had just decided to open & revisit my copy of Brand Brilliance when Fiona announced this new mini-course in her email. Talk about synchronicity! Thank you for this mini-course Fiona! It clarified and refined many things in my marketing thinking! You're a gem!

Read MoreThanks so much, i've had my brand Renovating Italy for it seems like a hundred years and it's never really felt right, a bit of everything I've learnt thrown together and I have to admit I've become disillusioned with the thought of creating something special. So to start 2025 i thought I'd start over fresh and this is the second day of my re thinking and yours is the first place that came to mind (I followed you years ago arghhh). so again thank you ciao for now lisa

Ha! No, you won't. But what you will have is a clear sense of the key steps, considerations and approach you need to take if you're to achieve this goal.
Branding is by its' very nature a high stakes and nuanced process and I'd be doing you a real disservice if I implied that you could get everything you needed from this single, one hour mini-course.
What you will get is the insight, inspiration and I hope motivation to bring a strategic approach to this process and really make the most of this opportunity.

What you will get is the insight, inspiration and I hope motivation to bring a strategic approach to this process and really make the most of this opportunity.
Yes and no. First things first, I passionately believe in the power of bringing a strategic approach to your brand. I've seen time and again the impact of getting this right and the fallout when this doesn't happen so I'm pretty passionate about making sure that whatever you invest in your brand, and whoever you invest it with, you get the right result.
In this course I want to inspire you with the possibility of bringing a more strategic, intentional approach to your brand because what I know is that's going to be good for your business.
As an entrepreneur myself (in the business of brand consultancy and brand training) I hope that as a result of the value I've added to your thinking and approach, you'll want to benefit from my unique experience and insights but there is no hard sell and there is most certainly no fluff here.
Those of you who've been around my work for a while you'll hopefully know that I work hard to inspire, add value and be generous with my experience in everything I produce and this is offered in that same spirit.
