This post is in partnership with PRIMP Network and Vistaprint. All opinions are my own.
I have been dreaming about this day for soooo long but it’s official. Kassy On Design has a new look. I’ve been toying with the idea of a rebrand for over a year and we finally made it happen. If you’re reading this right now, then you’re seeing the new website and the new logo. I hope you guys love them as much as I do. Getting a new logo meant I needed all new stationary, business cards, and return address labels. Thankfully, Vistaprint is a one stop shop for all things business and branding.
How gorgeous is my new logo! I have Kylie Stinson to thank for this beauty. If anyone remembers my original logo, you’ll know that it’s slightly reminiscent of that design but updated and much more professional. I absolutely love the new font and the cute little swag of my K under my A!
Over the last few months, I’ve really been working hard to push Kassy On Design to the next level. I want to make this my career and that means putting lots of time and effort into this as a business. I’ve been reading up on how to be a great business woman. One of the most powerful things that I’ve read so far is that we are often hardwired NOT to believe in ourselves. We assume that we will never be as successful as we want to be. And SO, we don’t ever work hard enough to ACTUALLY become that successful.
Isn’t that interesting. It’s like a viscous cycle. You don’t work hard enough, but only because you’ve convinced yourself that you will never ACHIEVE what you’re working for. When I read that, I decided that I was going to bust my butt to achieve what I want. And that has been tough at times.
Blogging is a 24/7 job. It’s about living your personal brand and always being in the mindset to create content wherever you go. It can be totally exhausting. Sometimes you just wanna get dressed and go out, but I have to remember to grab and outfit photo or insta story of my day. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. These are all just thing that I have to do in order to achieve my goal. I’m so unbelievably blessed to have a family that understands and supports me in this.
Something that I’ve found to be VERY important when it comes to living my brand, is to always have a business card on hand. Even though we live in a digital world, it’s so imperative to have something with your info on it to give to someone on the spot. That way if they don’t have their phones or computers, they can take your info with them. It’s especially helpful when people ask me about my outfit! I can say, “Actually, I’m a blogger. Here is my card. All of the info about my outfit is on my Instagram” and BAM. I have a new friend/follower!
Vistaprint helped me to create the CUTEST business cards with my new logo on them. I loved the idea of a square card because I think it’s so different and it will immediately stand out in a crowd of cards. My design is really simple but they have TONS and TONS of gorgeous templates to get you started.
The other thing that super important when it comes to running your own business is RELATIONSHIPS. People like to know that they are valued. So I try to send out Thank You notes whenever I can. And thanks to Vistaprint, I have a cute return address label that lets them know who the letter is from at first glance!
The best part of working with Vistaprint is that the shipping is FAST and everything is super affordable. And to make it even more affordable, I’ve got a coupon for 40% off your order! Plus they have so much more than just business cards and return address labels. Get your logo put on ANYTHING!

Do you have a dream job or career. It’s never going to happen if you don’t make it a priority. I’m not saying you should quit your 9-5 (I still do interiors to pay the bills) but I am saying that you should put TIME into your dream. Set aside 15-30 minutes a day to devote to it and you’ll start to see results. Then slowly you can amp it up until that business is able to support itself. I’ve seen the blog pick up TONS over the last few months and I can’t wait to see what will happen if I continue to devote my time to it!
