brand master academy review

“Purchasing Brand Master Secrets been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my business. Within 12 months I went from a freelancer charging $500 for brand strategy to a 6-figure agency charging up to $10,000 with confidence, all thanks to this program and framework.”

Amy Kuo – Co-Founder & Creative Director at Author Brand Studio

“This is the most in-depth Brand Strategy Course I have seen (and I’ve bought a few in my time). It gave me the confidence to quote and win a £16k job (three times more than I was charging).”

Col Gray – Founder of Pixels Ink

“When I was ready to invest in serious training, I knew Stephen was the guy. All I can say is WOW! It’s so much better than I even expected. Everything is light years more than I’ve learned after being in the industry for 10+ years. Best investment ever!”

Kelly Mozatta – Founder of KAM Design Studio

“I’m so grateful for BMS. You’re severely undercharging for this amazing course. Truly everything a brand strategist needs. I tripled my prices and hit the highest month and my clients quadrupled their revenue too, all thanks to BMS!!!”

XINDI – CEO Founder of By Xindi

““Are you f*****g kidding me?!” was my first thought when I dug into Brand Master Secrets. I wasn’t pissed off. I was in awe. Every other program, course, mastermind I’ve taken on positioning, marketing and business psychology looks like cheap crap next to this Gem. Thank you Stephen!”

Sebastian Thalhammer – Founder at Firestorm Digital

“I want you to know I would pay so much more for this course. It’s the best f*cking course I’ve ever taken and the best in this category. You rock Amigo! I definitely getting your other course and I don’t want a discount. You’ve earned every damn dollar (and you can quote me)”

Christine de la Garcia – Founder at christinedlg

“I started selling brand strategy services at $1,5k, then $3k, then $8k, then $10-15k and recently we just landed our biggest job ever at $40k+. It’s been a journey but I could see how valuable strategy was to businesses. I’m so grateful to Stephen for providing such an amazing course. Stick with it and you’ll get the rewards!”

Geoff McAllister – Founder at Studio Alumni

“We are a UK based experiential brand team with well known international clients. BMS is Amazing, just amazing, and actionable. When I realised you were actually going to share all these tools with us too. That was my first…wow, I think I love this guy moment. Anyway the primary reason for my message is to say thank you!”

Paula Murray – Founder at Super Tonic

“This has been the most practical and high-quality, well put together course I’ve ever done (and I’ve done quite a few). Incredible value. Over the moon that I invested my time and money into this with Stephen Houraghan. Thanks again.”

Kaleb Bollen – Strategist and Partner at Periscope Media

“I have done all the brand strategy courses I could find online and I can assure you, yours is THE BEST on the market but also the most PROFOUND, DEEP, STRUCTURED. You just handed me EVERYTHING I need to sell and deliver brand strategy with this system and these templates. I wish I joined earlier. You should be charging way more. “

Ioana – Founder at Ioana Design Studio

“Your course may be more insightful and educational than everything I gained from my masters degree in communications from the University of Florida. I have taken several courses on brand strategy and yours is by far the best out there. I thought you should know how much your course and videos have impacted me.”

Marc Harmon – Brand Consultant at Venture Brand Consulting

“I’m so impressed. I bought another brand strategy course for 5.5x the price of BMS and it wasn’t half as good, there’s no fluff. I already had a lot of knowledge and experience but BMS gave me a real framework. I am delighted I got this course and would 100% recommend it!”

Chris Wirdemann – Founder at C9W

“First off, holy cow your course is amazing! It was a STEAL! I recently transitioned to brand strategy and wow! Thank you so much for providing the structure and resources to kick start this journey! Thank you so much. “

Dakota – Founder at GOTO Brand Girl

brand master secrets testimonial

“I feel more confident that I can bring my clients massive value because I feel like I know what I am doing and have authority. I can discern better decisions I want to make for my clients to give them massive value.”

Timothy Preut – Co-Founder, Designer & Strategist at Tickyboom

“Every time I built a brand strategy for a client, it felt like I was going back to the drawing board. Brand Masters Secrets has given me such clarity in what I offer and has given me the confidence to approach larger clients. Don’t waste time trying to figure it out yourself. This investment is TOTALLY worth every penny. ????”

Reagan Bradley – Founder at itsreaganbradley.com

“If you really want to take your business to the next level! I can’t recommend Brand Master Secrets enough. It’s bloody brilliant and so worth the money! I’ve been a Designer for 19 years and a freelancer/consultant for the last 8 years but have always felt like there’s gaps in my knowledge. It’s given me the confidence to push and grow my business, taking it from a freelance biz, to a ‘branding agency’. Very excited for what’s to come in 2022.”

Gemma Johnson – Creative Director and Designer at Jellicoe Creative

“Just wanted to pop you an e-mail because I felt compelled to say Brand Master Secrets is quite literally the best course I have ever done. Your content and everything you’re sharing is so thorough, clearly well researched and quite frankly invaluable. I think it’s worth 10X what you’re charging for it!”

Becky Lloyd Pack – Founder at Story By Design

“Brand Master Secrets has been hands down one of the best investments I’ve ever made in myself or my business. I’ve done a LOT of projects in the last few years but I realised I needed to work with fewer clients, offer more value and charge more. BMS has given me everything I needed to make the transition to strategy delivered to me on a silver platter and I’m over the moon!”

Rosie Addison – Owner, Designer & Strategist at Logo Logo

“I have spent over $30K on courses but yours has literally given me tears this weekend. I’ve done a strategy course (with a big name you’ll know) BUT, your course is the MOST comprehensive I’ve ever seen. Clients see me as their trusted advisor. All my coaches have FAILED to tell me this funnel strategy. WOW! I wish I could give you an internet hug right now. HAHA! YOU SAVED MY BUSINESS LIFE!”

Humaira Akhter – Consultant at BrandWave

“I’ve been doing branding for 20+ years. If you want to get into brand strategy you have to get this course. It’s the complete course from A-Z. The process is so in-depth. Brand Master Secrets is a no-brainer, you have to grab it. I’m sure glad I did. “

Joel Kelly – Founder & Podcast Host BAM Create

“I’m really blown away!! I was dubious about how much BMS could help because I’ve been offering brand strategy for a couple years. None of the books, or frameworks, were giving me answers to the questions I had. I love how practical and applicable BMS is. I’m ashamed to say I don’t want to share it because I find it so valuable.. lol”

Megan Vaughan – Owner & Creative Director at Prolific Banana

“Before Brand Master Workshops I didn’t have a concrete framework to structure my workshops. This program gave me a structured step-by-step system with all the exercises, decks and tools needed to deliver. It has been invaluable and completely changed the way I run Brand Strategy Workshops”

Richard Callis – Founder at richardcallis.com

“You, mate, are the real deal and I thank you for your authenticity. I ran a strategy workshop using the BMS framework and at the end the look in the clients’ eyes was priceless. I cannot tell you how utterly happy for the structure and clarity you’ve given me. “

Dan Plumadore – Founder at SkyBourne

kulin shah review

“We’ve been running a branding agency for almost 25 years and Brand Master Secrets has helped us redefine our process and uplevel our strategic offerings. I highly recommend Brand Master Academy or anything else Stephen creates. Kudos for creating an incredibly detailed brand strategy program…really well done!”

Kulin Shah – Founder at Quantum

“This course is a game-changer. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. It’s exactly what I needed. “

Kezia Israel – Founder at Kizkopop

“After reading all the 5-Star reviews of your program I took the plunge And I’m so glad I did… WOW !!! You really are a wonderful mentor. I have gone from being a complete newbie to now having a framework to build a ‘complete brand’ strategy. I can’t recommend Brand Master Secrets enough.”

Helen Froling – Her Course Academy

“I’m honestly blown away by what’s included in BMS. Every question I could possibly have has been answered about brand strategy and scaling my business. It’s not just theory but application. I’m so excited for this year with what I now know. Thank you so much.” 

Ollie Johns – Creative Director

BM Secrets & BM Workshops was truly the best decision I’ve made in the last few years! Every day. Awesome! I had already studied brand strategy at university but with what you’ve taught me I can really throw the punch. It’s going faster than I’d like, but I already have two relevant big brand strategy projects. You deliver real, real quality and you completely live up to what you promise. Thank you for that!

Nico Jan van Hamel – Brand Strategist

”I want to express how much of a blessing BMS is. I learned more from from this program than I did from my digital marketing degree. Thank you so much for putting this together and making yourself available throughout.”

Stephanie Hernandez – BrandingCup

"Branding is like a puzzle with 1.000 parts. No witchcraft in theory. But in practice it can get overwhelming. It was the structure I missed! You show how all parts of this complex beautiful construct fit together and teach how to work with them effectively. Chapeau! And thanks for the journey!"

Kerstin BestmannFounder at LifeQualityBrands

"Wow... My brand strategy knowledge has absolutely sky-rocketed. I have had so much value and confidence from the bootcamp, but in particular the live sessions have completely up-levelled it for me. Thank you so much!"

Fay Hawkins – Brand Strategist

"This has exceeded my expectations on both value and clarity. Of all the different things I have done to transition myself into this field, you have given me more clarity and direction than all of it by far."

Scott Kasten (PhD, JD) - Brand Strategist

”I’m absolutely thrilled with BMS. You’ve helped me to become a brand strategist, secure my first clients and run my first fully fledged brand strategy workshop and project. I researched for months and couldn't find anything as comprehensive and professionally executed as BMS. Your ability to empower us as brand strategists is truly exceptional”

Sandra Ivanišević – CSR AGENCY

”Brand Master Secrets has been incredible. It’s fast-tracked my progress and given me the confidence to go all in. Clients are coming in and some are bigger than I expected to be working with at this early stage”

Steve Roche - Creative Director

"Brand Master Academy is the sh!t. Seriously! It gave me something I didn’t know I needed and changed the course of my business. Before BM Secrets I knew nothing about strategic branding. Just opening the course made me realize the value outweighed the price. So when BM Workshops was launched, I said, “take my money!”. Y’all, that course right there will have you doing the most. Having taken Level C and BMA courses, trust and believe, I’m team BMA all the way. BMA is a game-changer."

Phyllis Williams-Strawder – The Ghetto Country Brandmother®

“Buying Brand Master Secrets has been my greatest investment. Developed a brand strategy for a client that helped increase her prices by 8x and another in the numerology space targeting $1m clients. ”

Sandeep Baakre - Co-Founder

“All I have to say is you’re an absolute genius Stephen Houraghan. Just ran our first brand strategy workshop it was an absolute stellar experience. This course has not only made workshops easier, it made me look professional, feel confident and fall in love with this process. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH, Stephen, From the bottom of my heart !!!!!”

Rachel Aponte

“Brand Master Workshops EXCEEDED my expectations!! It showed us step-by-step how to obtain our clients’ most relevant information in a dynamic and unique way to help us craft a successful strategy. This is, without a doubt, another amazing contribution from Stephen and Brand Master Academy!”

Jackie G.

I took BMS after leaving a high-paying full-time job. I kid you not, within 2 months I 13X'd my money from my first $10k strategy. A veteran agency owner told me he's baffled at how much I can charge. He, and another now want to invest in my company. I thank God for you Sincerely 🙏

Jacinto Rivera Mendoza

I can charge so much more as a strategy-focused creative after completing the program and I’m confident that I truly understand brand strategy. And Before joining BMA, I’d done a lot of research on brand strategy. I thought I knew a thing or two but once I started the program, I learned more about brand strategy than I ever did working on branding projects.
