On one side, I design magazines (yes, that’s a thing!) and on the other, I create
branding that feels familiar as soon as you see it.  While I’ll boldly back my mad design and branding skills every day of the working week, the part of the branding that I do (and I love the most) is how I work with small businesses. They love themselves sideways knowing that they can get the best business branding in two days and they can get it done and dusted without the branding bank balance being busted (aka, it’s absolutely afford-do-able!).    Where to find Rowena Preddy  Instagram: www.instagram.com/preddycreative  Website: www.preddycreative.com.au    Links mentioned in this podcast  https://preddycreative.com.au/freebies/    If you enjoyed listening to this episode, then you’ll also love:  Episode 39 - Taking responsibility of your brand with Chantelle King  Episode 61 - How your brand feeds into your content marketing    And why not leave a review?    I use and recommend Podbean and Descript to edit my podcast.   * These are affiliate links.
