Meet Olivia Satterfield The Branding Maven
So, this is where you’ll get to get personal with me.
As you know, I work heavily with AI, including developing my website. But for this page, I want you to get 100% ME!
I started The Branding Maven because I was desperate. I was on the brink of being homeless with two children back in 2023. I called my mother and my kids’ dad, and she said to me, “You have GOT to do something”. So, The Branding Maven was born.
She carried me through some difficult times and eventually to the career that I have today.
I have always been creative, but I didn’t see myself where I am today. I started as a coworker's social media manager, then I became the graphic designer for a nerd group, eventually leading me to become a marketing manager for a non-profit organization and a business owner. That journey was not cute at all. It was ugly, confusing, and giving everything we didn’t want life to give. But I was able to grow from that into someone who has 7 years of real-world experience. I’ve been blessed to see my work on t-shirts, mailers, billboards, bus wraps, and publications.
This journey leading me to this place is consistent transformation, evolution, introspection, and a little razzle-dazzle.
Like I said, I have two little ones, and that journey is amazingly chaotic. Being a mother has shown me the beautiful things in life and some of the raw yet fertile places for growth. I am doing part of this for them. This business is so I can provide them with a softer, kinder life. I didn’t grow up knowing I was low-income, but somehow, I still knew. And that’s not a life I desire to give my children.
The biggest thing I want you to know about me as your potential branding bestie is that I am human. I’m no mega-million-dollar machine. I have highs and lows. Somedays, all I have is enough to get through the day. Other times, I’m plowing through a backlog of work and getting ahead. Somedays, I’m a social butterfly. On other days, I only want to eat wings and fries in bed and watch SVU. I’m still learning the delicate balance of life, which impacts how I can show up ANYWHERE.
That being said, make sure you read my terms and conditions; there’s an energetic capacity clause in there.
I’m glad you’re here to learn more about me, and I look forward to learning more about you and the brand you’re ready to evolve.
