Maker Entrepreneurship: Build Your Brand

Instructor: Salem Turchan

Define your products, audience, and visual identity

Clarify what you make, who it is for, and what makes it distinct. Explore product and customer research, identify potential income streams, and begin building a cohesive brand. Participants will use web-based applications to create a visual style board, simple logo, and business card.

This is the first workshop in the Maker Entrepreneurship series. Participants should have an existing creative practice and bring examples or photos of their work, a notebook, and a laptop or suitable device. A limited number of laptops may be available with advance notice.

To get the most from this workshop, participants should expect to complete independent work between sessions.
