Looking at this now 2 years later and you redesigned your redesign 🤣 love that you just go through every design thing in your own branding.

[@abiconnick]

[@naomihunter776]

Loved the credit card style business card! It's so unique and definitely shows how creative you are ❤️

[@magdalenabarylska6163]

If your design describes who you are, then I think your friends and family are blessed with you. So nice to see and giving good vibes.

[@abiconnick]

Trying to rebrand currently, and this was filled with great ideas! Thanks 💛

[@ivanaandersson]

Hey, I am on a journey to create my own brand, how did your rebrand go? :)

[@camilleorfao]

Amazing! My rebrand went well but then I had a baby and my content changed and now I've rebranded for the last time, hopefully. Wishing you luck! 😊@@ivanaandersson

[@abiconnick]

So glad my videos have helped you! It always feels so confusing at the start but over time you'll get better, you got this! 😊💛

[@destiniclark]

Hi Abi! If you see fit, could you do an updated version of this w/ your new current style and outlook on personal branding? Also sharing how a personal brand can differentiate from a business brand?

[@abiconnick]

Hey Destini, of course! It's actually on my list to to an updated video on personal branding in 2023, so keep an eye out!

[@itscozykita]

Omg Abi!!! This is so beautiful and just what I needed! I am in the process of rebranding and as a designer I always struggle with anything concerning myself or my brand lol. I am the branding queen when it comes to others, but with myself..absolutely not lol! Going to really bring myself into my brand this time! Thank you so much!

[@abiconnick]

Thank you! It can be so hard to design for yourself 🥵 so many ideas that can go round your head! But I haven’t rebranded for a year and a half so it worked including the personal things into the brand! You’ll have to keep me updated with how you get on! X

[@itscozykita]

@@abiconnick aww yes!! I definitely will!! You have inspired me so much! Can't wait to see the new video!! By the looks of the mood board I can tell its going to be 🔥

Hey Abi, Thank you for all the tips of creating a personal brand. My favorite business card is the first one with your credit card style on the front and social media tags on the back.

[@abiconnick]

Thank you for the support 😊 Yes that's a good choice!

[@frowkyfly4070]

I absolutely LOVE how the branding turned out, the colours and so pretty! I’m sure someone has already asked this, but where did you have your business cards printed? They look so good! I’d appreciate it so much if you could recommend somewhere to have your business cards printed! ❤️

[@abiconnick]

Thank you 💛 At the time I got them from Solopress, but haven't got any printed for a while as clients rarely request them! 😊

[@frowkyfly4070]

[@genesisrodriguezperez6988]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I needed this to finally feel inspired to really brand myself as a designer 💙💙 I have a question!..I would like to know if you recommend brand the same way (same aesthetic) another brand of ourselves... for example: If I have design and beauty brands (2 instagram accounts).. do I have to brand them the same way?

Really loved this video. It gave me a good insight on how to brand yourself. I think I wish I've found you earlier cause I think these thips could have helped. But I'm still happy with what I've got. :) In your video you told that "your brand has to represents you as a designer". How do you find out about this? I mean, I know who I am and what I like but I'm not sure what style or feeling I'm looking for... Thanks for sharing your brand! I'm gonna watch more of your video's cuz I can learn a lot more from you :)
