BTB Episode 65: 5 Ways to Get More Out of a Branding Project

Brands that Book Show

filed in

Davey and Krista Jones

“You would be surprised how many people come to us and say that “I really want something that is unique and something that reflects me” and it looks like “Insert Photographer’s Name here.” These are contradictory things so we always go back and say, “Hey, we are going to focus on something that is unique to you and reflects your brand.”

It has only taken 60 plus episodes, but Krista has finally joined me for an episode of the podcast. It is the perfect time too, because we are kicking off a mini-series about branding and website design. Krista and I are chatting about the 5 ways to get the most out of a branding project and we even include an activity to start working on your brand’s aesthetic. We cover things like hiring a designer, timing, and tips for completing a project. We know that we did not discuss everything in this episode, so if there is something that you would like to learn more about, please reach out! We will try to cover it during this mini-series.

Many of you probably know who Krista is, but if you don’t, she is my wife, creative director, and lead designer here at Davey and Krista. She would probably also add that she is my boss, but that is a highly debated subject over here.

      Meet Davey & Krista

      We've spent 15+ years designing brands and websites for creative businesses — and paying close attention to what actually works.

      Every template we've built is informed by real client projects, real conversion data, and a deep understanding of what makes someone go from browsing to booking. We don't just design for beautiful. We design for what happens after someone lands on your page.

      That's why our templates don't just come with files. They come with the guidance to use them — writing prompts, launch checklists, and systems that take you from purchase to published.

      We also teach. Our designer courses are where we train the next generation of designers, and DesignEdit is our newsletter for working creatives who want to stay ahead of AI. All of it comes from the same place: the belief that good design should make your business feel lighter, not harder.

      we're Davey & Krista
