Big Fun, Small Business: An audio sketchbook for building a business that feels good
Deanna Seymour | Graphic Designer + Community FounderHumans evolve. Ideas change. And honestly, how is a creative human supposed to stick to one podcast idea for half a decade and a ton of episodes? I have no idea.
That’s why Big Fun, Small Business is an audio sketchbook of all the things I’ve explored since starting back in 2020. It’s a collection of ideas, rants, pep talks, tips, and a very real evolution of what it looks like to build a busines... more

United States2 years ago - A must listen for creative entrepreneurs
If you feel like you don’t fit in the “box” of the marketing advice you see everywhere… close all your tabs and just start listening to Deanna! She’s fun, creative and super smart about branding and online marketing. I’ve worked with her to implement a Static 9 grid on my instagram account and I’m really happy with the results so far! Think outside the box and listen to Deanna’s podcast!

She offers practical and simple advice for real people who own businesses, her tone is upbeat but not obnoxiously over-positive, ... more
