Brand Yourself

In order to make a name for yourself, you need to create your name! Creating a brand isn't only for corporate cronies. Understanding yourself and the audience you want to appeal to will help you create a community of devoted fans that can't wait to see what you put out next. It gives you freedom to be yourself and attract your tribe.

Shoot emails to people you want to work with, and it could lead to licensing your work with various brands and product types. Want to work with Denik? Just fill out THIS form.
