A bit about me
My name is Kelly Conti.
I'm a graphic designer and founder of Red Lantern Creative.
I’ve been running my own business for over 8 years and have worked with small entrepreneurs to fortune 500 companies on their branding and digital assets.
The one thing I’ve learned in this industry is that it doesn’t matter how big your business is they all have one thing in common … to attract their ideal clients. A logo is not just a logo. A logo and branding should make a big impression. The best brands draw their clients in so they feel connected to the brand and the products.
I myself have gone through a redesign. I had a break-through in my life, became a mother, found my motivation and made my business what it is today.
I created this course so I could share my knowledge and expertise with creative and driven entrepreneurs like yourself who want to DIY their logo and branding.

What would you say to anyone thinking of purchasing this course?: Do it! The amount of value in this self-paced course is incredible. If I would've worked with someone else to create my logo and brand for my new company it would've surely taken much longer. When you're excited about getting your business launched, the last thing you want is to have anything stall. This course took me two weeks to complete but, I could've finished it sooner (travel, little humans and my full-time job took up some of that time).
Before I found Kelly's course I was starting to work on my logo or, as she puts it, I was "painting the walls before they were built". The difference between the logo I started creating before the course and the one I ended up with after completing the course are night and day different! My final logo is all sorts of professional and, most importantly, speaks to my target audience so well. I even have a full brand style guide so when people ask me for my brand colors and fonts all I have to do is send them one document. Like I said, the value is incredible!
What was your favorite lesson in the course?: I anticipated that the Create Your Logo in Adobe Illustrator lesson would be my favorite but, while it was still exciting, I LOVED the Create an Inspiration Board lesson. It got me really thinking about defining my brand for my company, Grace + Abel Children's Clothing. I had an idea what I wanted before I started that lesson and while I stayed true to it, with Kelly's help, it was really amplified.
What good results have you experienced from applying what you learned in this course?: Clarity! When you're starting a new business your head is so full of all these wonderful ideas about what you want your business to be like and look like. It's actually a bit overwhelming. I am walking away with a very clear understanding of what Grace + Abel Clothing Company is all about.
