    • S02E14 – House Cleaning in Branding: Clearing the Clutter for a Stronger Identity
      Aug 26 2025

      As the seasons change, many businesses are focused on what’s ahead—but few are stopping to clean up what they’ve left behind. Over time, brands accumulate clutter: outdated logos, confusing messaging, unused services, and visuals that no longer reflect who they truly are.

      In this episode of Create Ideas, Shahid and Vicky return with a refreshingly practical concept: House Cleaning in Branding. It’s not a rebrand—it’s a reset. And it could be the clarity your business needs before you launch your next campaign, website, or product.

      What does brand clutter look like? And how do you clean it up without overhauling everything?

      You’ll learn:

      • Why brand clutter leads to customer confusion and lost trust
      • How to spot misalignment in your visuals, services, and messaging
      • The Keep–Tweak–Trash method for decluttering your brand
      • How small updates can have a big impact
      • Why brand clarity sets the stage for stronger marketing and smoother operations

      Whether you’re a solo founder, startup team, or established business, this episode is packed with insights to help you reset, simplify, and re-align your brand—just in time for your next big move.

      Mar 26 2025

      As the political climate heats up between Canada and the U.S., something interesting is happening at home: Canadians are turning inward—with growing support for local businesses, locally made products, and brands that reflect Canadian values.

      In this episode of Create Ideas, Shahid and Vicky return from a short break to explore a timely and powerful branding trend: the rise of Canadianism in business. With more consumers actively choosing homegrown companies over global competitors, now is the perfect time for brands to lean into their Canadian identity.

      What does that look like? And how do you do it without becoming a walking Canada Day parade?

      You’ll learn:

      • Why Canadian consumers are craving local stories, values, and visuals
      • How to incorporate subtle hints of Canadian culture into your brand strategy
      • The difference between cliché and authentic branding
      • How Creatica Studios infuses Canadian pride into its work—from design to storytelling to... yes, the CN Tower
      • Why showing where you're from can be your greatest branding asset

      Whether you're a small business owner, a startup founder, or a marketing leader, this episode is packed with ideas and inspiration for strengthening your brand by embracing your roots.
