From "Meh" to Memorable.
From "Meh" to Memorable.
The Process…
Clear, creative and quite franc-ly, F’n fun.
-
This is the first step in your branding journey. In this 1-hour brainstorming session with Eliza Franc(ombe), we’re going to get reeeeeeally up close and personal with your brand and discover who you are, who you want to be, and how we’re going to get you there.
-
Your brand strategy is franc-ly everything. It’s the complete package of what gives your brand meaning. It’s the ‘why’ behind the ‘who’, and the soul of your brand that guides every next fearless strategic move you make. It’s how your brand consistently connects with the world, makes you unmistakable, and it’s what’s going to make audiences and competitors sit up and pay god damn attention.
-
If your brand strategy is the soul, then your brand identity is the looks and personality. Your brand identity captures your voice, distinct look and feel, and gives you the full guide on how you present to the world. Franc-ly speaking if you’re only here for a logo, a cute colour palette, and some fonts, CheapBrands4u is four blocks down, just behind the Nandos.
If you’re still here and serious about your brand’s visual identity, distinctive personality, and the power to make it all consistent, then scroll on.
-
Your brand execution is putting everything your brand is, has, and wants to give, and using it to connect with the world. It’s arriving on the scene with the content, communications, imagery, videos, print and package design, and every other touch point you have with audiences. If your a brand that is already in the market, this is the only suite of services we’ll allow you to cherry pick from, but it also means we get to cherry pick the clients and projects that we vibe with!
-
They say there are no friends in business, but we’ve never believed that. We love building genuine relationships with our clients and creating bonds that last well beyond the project itself. We’re in this together: hand in hand, arm in arm, all the way to the finish line (and beyond).

“Wait, what about my logo?”
Don’t worry, we didn’t forget your logo and logo variations.
But there’s a reason we left them lucky last.Are they important? Yep.
Do they define your brand? Hell no.Your logo is a small part of what makes your brand. Think of it like the cherry on a big, beautiful branding cake, or those cool little umbrellas that come with a cocktail.
It will be iconic, but only because of the branding behind it. -

So Brian from Finance still thinks a brand is just a logo? Cute. We all know a Brian.
In 8 hours of Eliza’s Brand Bootcamp, we’ll rip that myth to shreds. We’re talking a full-on deep dive into who you are, what you stand for, and how to turn that into a strategy so game-strong your competitors get reduced to fans, not rivals. Audience? Nailed. Market? Owned. Longevity? We’re creating a brand that will outlive fitness challenges and the next overpriced oat-milk craze.
One room. One day. No mercy. Let’s sort this sh*t out.
Let’s Be Franc...
Who we work with:
Entrepreneurs and business owners in the beauty, fashion, and lifestyle industries who fit these glass slippers:
You have a brand vision and will only settle for the best team that can make it a reality
You know the true value of iconic branding as a future-building investment
You’re ready to commit, ready to trust the process, and ready to go
Signs we’re not the right fit:
You’re considering your cousin’s offer of designing you a logo on Canva for fifty bucks
Your knuckles are white from gripping onto the creative control like an old lady with the last discounted 3pk of knickers
You communicate as openly, frequently, and consistently as a teenager with no wi-fi
You’re an accountant, taxidermist, real estate agent, or a local Avon lady *cough pyramid scheme cough*
Real T, how much will my branding cost?
We can answer this one faster than when you’re asked, “what’s cooler than being cool?” (ICE COLD!) The answer is… it depends.
Businesses come in all different shapes and sizes - bricks and mortar, digital, boots on ground, products, and people.
Your brand doesn’t belong in the ‘one size fits all’ section, so we don’t have a one size fits all pricing structure.
We strongly encourage you to spend some time on research, setting a budget, and deciding what you’d like to invest in your branding so we can cross that cost bridge early.
The real question isn’t “How much will my branding cost?” It is… “What will it cost me if I don’t do it right from the start?” Short answer: a fortune. Way more expensive and time-consuming than doing it right the first time. In fact, it could cost you your entire business.
Do it right. Do it once.
This is where your brand goes from “meh” to memorable.
