In today’s episode we are hopping over to the design side of things, which is really fun change of pace from all the mindset related content that we’ve been doing a lot lately.

We’re going to be talking about color psychology and how you can use it when it comes to branding your business today.

What is Color Psychology?

Color is a powerful tool for your business!

Color has the ability to evoke certain reactions and emotions, so knowing the FEELING you want your business to have will help your color choices.

There are also so many variations of all colors to consider. Ex: it’s not enough to say all blues = calm! There are soft blues,  bright blues, dark blues – all of which will create a different feeling.

I like to say, knowing the feeling you want your business to have is what’s going to be able to help guide you in making really great color choices for your business.
