    • What emotions do you want your brand to exude? Elegant, joyous, delicious, fun.
    • What products do you already have in place in terms of business card, website, commercial, etc? Are you open to updating all, including a new logo? I have nothing in place, don’t even have a logo. I am open to anything and everything.
  • What colors are you drawn to, or not drawn to? I don’t like orange. My favorite color combination is deep purple and lime green.
