Our new business + a giveaway worth $3,900!
At the start of 2015, in the midst of a brutal Boston winter and coming off of an even more challenging previous year, Aaron and I decided to do something kind of crazy.
A few short months after buying our first home, we chose to put it up for rent, pare down and move all of our belongings to storage, and leave safe but stagnant for adventure and possibility. Mid-May, we hit the road with our tiny car, single suitcase, kitchen and camera gear, and our two dogs in tow. Our plan was to visit National Parks and new-to-us cities throughout the continental United States. Work would take a backseat for the first time in our adult lives.
The whole “no work” thing lasted about two and a half months, maybe three. It was late summer in Sonoma County and high on California sunshine, the most amazing local produce, and those beautifully winding wine country roads…the ideas just started flooding in. It felt like anything was possible.
Over the last (almost) year, we’ve realized some important things about our lives and careers and how we want the two to work together. And so, we decided to merge my skills in writing and SEO with Aaron’s background in design to start a new branding business! It’s called Your Brand Week, and after months of closely examining logo design and branding trends, color palettes, and typography, we’re beyond excited to only be weeks away from launching it!
While Your Brand Week is obviously not recipe-related, I really value the community we’ve created together on Pickles & Honey and I wanted you to be the first to know about our plans for launch, especially since many of you are fellow bloggers, entrepreneurs, and business owners. We’ve just put up our pre-launch site, which you can check out at: www.yourbrandweek.com
Our full site will be up in less than a month and I’ll be sure let you know when it’s live!
In the meantime, I’d love your help in spreading the word about a BIG giveaway we’re doing for $3,900 worth of custom logo design and branding for the most awesome business we can find, plus a $500 commission to whoever recommend them!
Here’s how to enter:
1) Go to our website www.yourbrandweek.com
2) On the first page of the site, enter your email to recommend an awesome business (or enter your own awesome business to win!)
3) On the second page, refer your friends using your own custom link back to Your Brand Week – and as a bonus you can earn a $500 commission if the business you recommend wins!
Thank you so much for all of your help and support. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate it. I look forward to continuing to share Your Brand Week with you and appreciate you telling the world!
