I see you there, tinkering with your colors + fonts for hours.

Yet you still feel like something feels “off”.


You go back to the drawing board and open up a fresh new art board in Canva… just to find yourself feeling stuck and not wanting to put your marketing out in the world.

If you do muster up the courage to hit “publish,” you feel self-conscious about it. Your marketing visuals don’t feel cohesive enough and you feel like your brand is all over the place. And the confidence you need to put yourself out there is lacking… big time.


I created Design Clarity: A Style Guide Workshop to help rescue you from this design fog and get you back on track.

I'm here to connect you with the right design tools and knowledge to create a defined style guide for your business, so you can start being more cohesive throughout your marketing and attracting your audience.

It’s possible to start looking more professional and feel more confident in your visual marketing.… without hiring a designer!

What workshop students are saying…

 
 
style guide workshop course


“EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO GET MY DESIGN SKILLS TO THAT NEXT LEVEL.”

Working on the front page of an online publication, needing to make sure everything looks as perfect as can be, takes knowledge with design! I had some design experience prior, but I wanted to learn more and the Design Clarity workshop was exactly what I needed to get to that next level. Learning color theory, typography, and how to be visually cohesive and consistent has been immensely helpful for my position, and something I carried over with me into my photography portfolio as well. Allie does a phenomenal job teaching everything while making it really fun and not overwhelming, which I so appreciated!

Frequently Asked Questions


 

Q1. What's the difference between this workshop and your Design Spirit course ⇓

This Design Clarity workshop includes lessons that specifically guide you in developing your own Style Guide. While my Signature course, Design Sprit, helps you improve your design skills as a whole and teaches design best practices so you can create more polished and professional marketing collateral and graphics. Design Spirit includes all lessons that are included in the Design Clarity workshop, so if you're looking for a more in-depth design course and want to feel more confident not only in your brand style but also the layouts and professionalism of your graphics, check out Design Spirit!

Q2. Will you be teaching me how to design a logo and visual brand for my business? ⇓

Not really. My goal for this workshop is to connect you with the right design tools and knowledge, so you can create a more visually consistent overall vibe and a solid style guide for your business, and start looking more professional than ever in your visual marketing. Although we will dive into how cohesiveness and consistency in your designs can help increase the professionalism in your marketing as a whole (which naturally leads to a more refined visual brand) AND you will certainly develop skills that may assist you in creating your own visual brand… this is not a DIY branding course and we will not be covering how to design a logo, etc.

Q3. Do I need special design software to take this workshop? ⇓

No, you don’t need any special software to soak up the value of this workshop! In fact, I won’t be teaching you how to use ANY software -- you can apply everything you learn to any program!

I will provide you with your style guide templates in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Canva, but you can easily recreate it in any desired program.

Q4. Do I need to complete this workshop in a specific amount of time? ⇓

Nope! Design Clarity will always be here for you, so you can take it at your own pace. You have lifetime access, so feel free to revisit certain lessons and brush up as time goes on, too!

Q5. How much time will I need to dedicate to this course? ⇓

You can expect to spend about 2 hours taking in the course content. However, you will want to put in time putting what you’ve learned into action and outside this workshop and they time that will take varies from person to person! :)

Q6. Can I get a refund? ⇓

Because of the on-demand, instant access nature of the workshop, I’m unable to give refunds once you purchase Design Clarity: A Style Guide Workshop. If you’re unsure if this workshop is for you, feel free to contact me at allison@alliemariedesign.com and I’d be happy to answer your questions! I have a feeling you’re going to LOVE it. :)
