About Us - Brand Studio

Welcome

to Brand Studio.

I can’t believe this weekend is almost over! I’ve had the pleasure of working on the marketing for @rathmullanfilmfestival since mid December and it’s been such a wonderful weekend seeing it all come to fruition.

It’s great to bring a local festival to a wider audience by bringing it online this year, and it’s been a real treat to put that marketing strategy in place. We created a new Instagram page and grew their existing facebook page massively.

The festival is an absolute credit to the community of Rathmullan and it’s been wonderful to be a part of it. Thanks for having me @rathmullanfilmfestival 🙌🏻👏🏻

I haven’t wanted to post in awhile.

Sure I spent ages planning content this year and actually had a lot of ideas ready to go but I just took a break last week. I have been busy helping my husband get his latest project up on social (please go follow @cohostie if you want to see us renovate a double decker bus! He’s on Tik Tok too!)

But other than that, I’ve not been feeling up to it over here. Bad news hit and I definitely didn’t want to post.

So for now this is me taking a minute to just stop and breathe and not stress out. Maybe it’s a little reminder for you too.

Hope you’re taking care of yourself. And pick up the phone to someone you haven’t spoken to in awhile today. It could make all the difference.

Working from home tips! There is nothing new here

Working from home tips!

There is nothing new here but just a friendly reminder of some simple things you should do when working from home!

Schedule your breaks! Find what works for you but please take a break. Working from home has meant a lot of us aren’t stepping away from the computer or desk as often as before. I like to work for 50 mins and take a 10 min break to stretch and move around, and give my eyes a rest from screen. I will often pop outside with the dogs for a few mins for some fresh air in these 10 min blocks too.

A lot of you are probably used to getting more movement in your day, be it commuting to the office, or even walking around the office to meet other colleagues or pop out for lunch. Now that you’re stuck at home, you might forget to move around as much. Be sure to stretch as often as you can during the day, and spend a little longer doing this at the end of your day.

This might seem like an obvious one but drink plenty of water, but also hot drinks! I don’t know about you but it’s cold where I am and I find if I’m stuck at the desk and not moving as much as I should I get cold and sore (such an old lady I know 🙈) but plenty of hot drinks keep me nice and warm, therefore I’m more likely to get up out of the cosy cocoon I’ve built for myself at my desk and move around more!

Save this post if you need a constant reminder! 🙌🏻

Either my procrastination levels have reached a while new level of crazy, or I’m just a stationary addict... or maybe a bit (or all) of both.

I just could not start work today without finding the perfect notebook for a project I’m working on. I tend to have a different notebook for different things depending on whether the ideas need their own space 😂🙈 most of the time they do. It’s like my brain can switch from the different projects easily if they have a different cover, and dedicated notebook.

Here are a few of my favourites from
@badlymadebooks
@ohhdeer
@tkmaxxie
@hubert_book_bindery

Anyone else an absolute stationary nerd like me? (Don’t get me started on different pens and colours 😂)

I have been wanting to post about this amazing person for a long time.⁠
⁠
I have been following @rocknrollbride and @rocknrollbridemagazine for YEARS now and when I say that Kat Williams is one of the people I admire most in business, I really mean it. ⁠
⁠
Not only does Kat run a phenomenal wedding magazine, but she uses her platforms to show the reality behind a business, and more importantly the reality behind being the owner of that business. ⁠
⁠
I was so so lucky to sign up to Kat's business mentorship programme before Christmas and it was a bit of a pinch me moment if i'm honest. Here I was chatting to an absolute idol of mine and she's giving me amazing advice for my new little business. ⁠
⁠
If you are looking for someone to follow who disrupts their industry in a phenomenal way, then look no further. She challenges stereotypes at every turn, she promotes diversity in the wedding industry (don't get me started on how much this is lacking across nearly every other wedding magazine out there), and she lifts people up and gives them confidence whenever she can. ⁠
⁠
Recently Kat's Dad passed away, and she has shown such strength and resilience since. She has shared her grief in a way that has helped so many others to deal with their own. While she goes through this heartbreaking time, she is still running her business with the help of her husband. I know when something like this happens we always ask "what can we do to help?", the simple answer is, support the business. No one should have to worry about paying the bills when grieving a loss or dealing with something that requires you to step back from your business to process things. Whether you are into weddings or not, you will know someone who is, so maybe buy them a magazine or a subscription to it!⁠
⁠
Even though I'm not planning another wedding, I still bought her book recently as my way of showing support. She shared recently how proud her Dad was of her when she launched her book, so I thought it might be a nice way to honour him too. ⁠
⁠

Also huge thank you to @lisajanephoto for allowing me to share this gorgeous shot she took of Kat for @rocknrollbride

☕️ All I need is coffee and a blank page 📄

☕️ All I need is coffee and a blank page 📄

I mean, I also need snacks... lots of snacks.

But other than that, it’s all I need to get settled into my writing routine. Every writer has a process. Mine is slowly beginning to take shape and I’m finding what works best for me.

Consistency is key... and in my case, coffee and snacks are too 😂

What can you not do without when it comes to your routine?
