If we had showed you this image with the logo removed from the doorway, would you know what store you were looking at before you even stepped in? Kate Spade has succeeded in achieving one of the most recognizable brands in the world. In addition to creating and defining a unique, colorful, adventurous brand persona, the brand consistently delivers their unique voice, messaging, visual identity and aesthetic across every single brand touchpoint they produce.

So for today, letโ€™s have a conversation about this goodness shown above! What do you love the most about this image, or the @katespadeny brand in general?? Is it the style, the colors, the products, or something else that draws you in?? Share with us below! ๐ŸŽ‰ #creativefounders {image via @hellogingercreative}

In our Community this week, we're focusing in on all things mission statements, and it's going to be such an incredible week seeing them shared over the next few days! This statement shown is a part of ours, and so today, we wanted to share it with you. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € This sentence means so much to us, because every single thing that we do at the Society for Creative Founders is created with YOU in mind. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € We know that you have big dreams and heartfelt passion for what you do, and that you want to have a successful business for years to come. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € And we want to help you every step of the way. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ....... โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Tomorrow, we're sending out an email to those on our email list with a link to a survey included, so that we can hear directly from you on what your wants and needs are for your business in the current season you are in. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € If you want to share your thoughts with us and perhaps even hear about a few "behind the scenes details" that we might be working on for you, simply sign up for our email list at the link in our profile above! ๐Ÿ™Œ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #creativefounders {photo by @annafilly + florals by @fioreofpensacola, from our spring โ€˜18 #creativefoundersconference!}
Hey y'all, happy Friday! I wanted to pop in for some #fridayintroductions goodness today and simply say hi! I'm Kristin, the person who is chatting with you here each day on Instagram, in our emails, and on our blog. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € As a quick "through the yearsโ€ introduction of sorts, I started my entrepreneurial journey as a wedding planner in 2010 and a few years in, transitioned my business to custom wedding stationery design after holding a swoon-worthy letterpress suite in my hands. I attended our Conference in 2015 (hey, Phoenix friends!) and have loved being a part of this Community of amazing women for so long. Y'all inspire me each and every day. I've been running things here for SCF since August of 2017 and goodness what an incredible journey it has been so far. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € This year, we have an incredibly intentional year ahead of us to make sure that everything we provide will empower you as a creative entrepreneur and help you to succeed while you're building a business you love. I can't WAIT to share all of the goodness we've got in store for you this year ... it's going to be amazing! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € On a personal note, I am an early riser living that coffee and kids life, a born and raised Minnesotan who now considers Florida home, love writing, designing, and am an INFJ through and through. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € So today, let's have a conversation and just get to know each other a bit more ... have you always been an entrepreneur? If not, what was your career/full-time job before you began?? Tell me a little bit about YOU! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #creativefounders {๐Ÿ“ท:@xoashleyvictoria}
Our Conference may be happening quite a few months from now, but we've already been working on so many of the behind the scenes details that it's all we can do to keep a lid on everything! Lucky for us (and definitely for you!) there is one thing we no longer need to keep quiet, and that is when our next Conference will be! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € We are so thrilled to share that our next Conference will be taking place on beautiful Pensacola Beach, from November 6-9, 2019! ๐ŸŽ‰ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Today may be known as Valentine's Day, but we're going to pretend it's simply a continuation of Galentine's Day from yesterday because we know you'll want to share the news with your fellow creative business owning girlfriends and start making a plan to spend the weekend with us here in Pensacola, Florida this November! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Registration opens three weeks from today on March 7th. Will we get to see YOU this Fall? โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #creativefounders #creativefoundersconference {photo by @xoashleyvictoria}
Yesterday, we asked you if you knew what one of the most important foundational items that a business can create for their business was. If you guessed that it is a mission statement, you are absolutely right! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Simply put, a mission statement is a brief statement about what it is that you do and who you do it for, using easily understood words so that even if people aren't in your industry, they know what you do and want to learn more. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € So today, we've got a step by step guide helping you to write yours! Head on up to the blog to read all about it and get to work, my friends! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € And oh yes ... we know so many of you are so anxious to hear the dates for our Fall Conference - we'll be sharing those at 2pm CST right here on Instagram! ๐ŸŽ‰ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #creativefounders #creativefoundersconference
