Sending your list an email doesn’t automatically make it a newsletter. A brand newsletter gives a specific audience a reason to keep hearing from you, and it starts with a clear promise, a format built around how you communicate, a simple color and font system, and one reusable template. You don’t need every sequence in place to begin.

I'm a brand strategist, designer, and illustrator who works with multi-passionate entrepreneurs to create brands that feel unmistakably *them*. I write for online business owners who are looking for answers when it comes to their brand, website, and how that all connects to content and marketing.
So grab a fresh cup of coffee, get comfy, and browse around. I've got step-by-step guides, platform breakdowns, client case studies, and deep dives that make sense of the branding terms that can actually help you grow your business.
I also write personal articles on The Sunday Sauce on Substack
One day a week “for your brand” sounds responsible — but it’s usually why nothing actually changes. You start to build momentum, then real life (and client work) cuts in, and you’re back at square one the next time you sit down.
In this post, I’m sharing my quarterly reset ritual: the CCO Week — a 7–14 day sprint where you become your own client and go deep on one meaningful project (not a hundred little tasks). It’s not about perfect conditions or clearing your calendar. It’s about finding your pockets of time, protecting them like a client meeting, and finally making real progress on the work that keeps getting pushed to “someday.”
If you’re tired of your brand living in the leftovers, this is your permission slip — and your plan.
