Sam landed a $20K project 11 days after joining.

Massive wins happen inside Brand Mastery Accelerator. Members have 4x’d their fees, booked international projects and transformed their businesses in a really short period of time. With the right support and a simple system, the results can feel like magic.

Sophie 4X’d her project fee in week 5, after 3 years of not increasing her prices.

Josh landed a new client on Day 1 of posting, after 12 months of likes and no calls booked.

Juan closed a $60K project in Week 8, after 2 years of averaging $8K project fees.

None of them got better at design. They were already good. What changed was everything around the design.
​

Here's the loop you're probably stuck in

You underquote because you're scared they'll walk. You overdeliver because you care. The client asks for round seven of revisions - and you do it, because there's no process protecting you. Then you chase the invoice. Then a quiet month hits. Then you take another underpriced project out of fear.
​
​Your design talent isn't the problem. The lack of systems in your business is the problem.

The three levers

The designers who are winning aren't better than you. They've just pulled three levers you haven't:

Pipeline

Referrals are lovely. They're not a plan. You need a simple way to get the right people on a call every week, without posting all day.

Pricing

Charge for the outcome, not the hours. A brand that helps a founder raise money isn't a $5K job.

Process

One repeatable brand sprint. Scripts, workshops, sign-off gates. Clients pay more for certainty. Winging it is expensive - for you.

Pull all three, and everything changes. Fast.

“Dude. I just wanted to drop you a note to say holy shit. This is seriously life-changing! Deepest thanks and gratitude for doing all this man.”

Luke Wenban

Independent Designer

AI is coming for the $3K logo. It's not coming for the $75K brand.

Let's be honest. If the job is making things look nice, fast and cheap - AI does that now. But nobody hands a $75K brand project to a prompt. They hand it to a person they trust to run the room, shape the strategy and make the call. That's the work BMA sets you up for. And you get the AI tools I've built for my own studio. Commodity designers should be nervous. Strategic ones have never been more useful. This is how I've run Electric Brands for a decade. It's how I've built world‑class brands like Heaps Normal, Hyro, Posca, Frekl, Koja and more. It's the best business model in design - and nobody teaches it. I do.

Level 1

Mindset

We start by focusing on you. To build a world-class brand, you need the right mindset and habits. This week is all about preparing yourself - shaping how you think, act, and work. You’ll learn how to become the best version of yourself, ready to embrace the mindset of a highly profitable brand designer. We’ll set the foundation for success by rewiring how we approach our work and life.

Level 2

Foundations

With a strong foundation in place, we’ll dive into the practical steps. You’ll get all my step-by-step frameworks, templates, and tools for operating as a world-class brand builder. But it’s not just about the tools - you’ll also learn how to apply them in your life and business. We’ll explore how to find your niche, craft your story, and position yourself as the go-to expert in your field.

Level 3

Strategy

Now we’ll walk through the 5-step brand-building process I’ve refined over the past decade. From idea to world-class brand, you’ll see how to guide your clients every step of the way. We’ll develop a full brand strategy, covering the “Why,” “What,” and “How” of the brand we're building. You’ll learn how to identify your audience and create a brand that connects with them on an emotional level - setting the stage for powerful creative work.

Level 4

Perception

Here’s the secret to avoiding endless revisions: getting the client on board before you start designing. In this level, you’ll lead your client through a creative journey, exploring different directions before any design work begins. This process gives you clear insights into their preferences, helping you create a brand they’ll love whilst avoiding the revision cycle of doom.

Level 5

Design

Now we jump into the fun part: design. I share all my resources, tools, and processes for creating stunning, world-class brands. From secret font sources to creative inspiration, you’ll get everything I use to bring a brand to life. You’ll follow along as I design a brand in real-time, side-by-side with you. By the end of this week, you’ll know exactly how to execute a brand design that wows your clients.

Level 6

Launch

In Level 6, we’ll focus on launching the brand successfully. You’ll learn how to deliver everything the client needs to launch and grow their brand on their own. My process ensures the client feels empowered and confident to move forward without needing you at every turn. This not only guarantees a successful brand launch but also sets you up for repeat business and glowing referrals.

Meet your host

I still do the work. I'm Pete Brennan. I've been a designer for 28 years. I've run my studio, Electric Brands, for ten of them - with my wife Nics. I co-founded a non-alcoholic beer company called Heaps Normal. I helped take it to a $58M valuation in three years. I've built brands like Hyro, Posca, Frekl and Koja too. I'm telling you this for one reason. I'm not a coach who read a book about pricing. Everything inside BMA is what I use in my own studio. But here's what I'm proudest of. The studio is small. It's calm. It's profitable. And I get real time with my wife and our three children. ​That's the business I teach you to build.

Still got questions?

What exactly is Brand Mastery Accelerator? +
Brand Mastery Accelerator is a 6-month mentorship programme for experienced designers who want to build a lean, enjoyable, highly profitable 1–3 person branding studio. It’s not about theory or hype. It’s about putting proper systems around your skills so you can charge more, work with better clients, and stop feeling like the business is held together with duct tape.
Who is this for? +
This is for brand designers who already know they’re good—but are tired of winging the business side. If you’re freelancing solo, running a small studio, or reinventing yourself after years in agencies, and you want a calm, profitable setup without staff bloat or chaos, you’re in the right place.
What’s the time commitment? +
On average, around 3–5 hours a week. That includes watching the training, joining the live calls (or replays), and actually implementing things in your business. You don’t need to disappear from client work—but you do need to show up. Like anything worthwhile, what you put in is what you get out.
Do I have to show up live? +
You don’t have to, but I recommend you do at least one call per week. The live calls are where the real breakthroughs happen. You get direct feedback, clarity on your specific situation, and support from other designers going through the same stuff. Everything’s recorded and searchable, so if you miss a call, you’re covered.
What happens when I join? +
You get instant access to everything. You’ll start working through the in-depth video training modules and worksheets inside Brand Mastery Accelerator, and you can jump straight onto the next live Value Call (we run them twice a week). From day one, we focus on simplifying your studio, tightening your process, and putting you in a position to charge considerably more money. You’ll also get access to TalkShop, which are intimate monthly expert guest sessions. There’s a private jobs board with real live briefs, often worth more than the entire investment in the programme.
What’s included in the program? +
You get six levels of structured, step-by-step training covering mindset, operations, strategy, design, and delivery, plus six full months of mentoring with two live calls every week. You’ll also get access to my entire studio system - proposals, decks, templates, dashboards, onboarding flows - the exact tools I use inside my own studio, Electric Brands. On top of that, you’ll have the marketing and sales playbooks, custom-built AI tools to speed up your workflow, guest expert sessions (TalkShop), a private jobs board, member perks, a tight-knit designer community, and your VIP welcome pack and Brand Mastery Certification.
How is this different from a course? +
It isn't a course. You've done those. Videos, a login, and nobody to ask. This is six months with me and a small group of designers, working on your actual business. You bring the real problem. We fix them live.
How much does it cost? +
We've got two options. Either a $7,500 USD investment for a 6-month membership, or a $3,000 USD investment for the 6-week sprint. We have payment plans available, and most members make their money back within the first few weeks.
What if it's not for me? +
You've got 14 days to find out. If you're not convinced within the first 14 days, you get a full refund. No questions asked.
Can’t I just work this stuff out with AI? +
AI will give you a pricing framework in ten seconds. It won't tell you that you just undersold yourself on a call. It won't look at your proposal and say "that's the wrong offer for that type of client". You need people for that. Ones who've done it.
What results can I expect? +
Depends on what you do with it. Sam landed a $20K project from our Jobs Board on day 11. Sophie 4x'd her fee in week 5. Juan closed $60K in week 8 after two years averaging $8K. They showed up and did the work. That's the deal.

“You’ve created something amazing. It feels like I’m on a different planet talking with you. I’ve learnt heaps & heaps that I never learnt at art school. The things you’ve taught me and the way you put it across is absolutely GOLD!”

A note from Pete


Hey, it’s Pete.

If you've made it this far, you're probably already a damn good designer.

But maybe you're stuck in the same loop.

Undercharging. Overdelivering. Always one quiet month away from completely burning out.

You didn't get into this to babysit needy low-budget clients, do round seven of revisions, or chase invoices from people who don't appreciate the value you provide.

You got into this to build brands that matter. Work with people who respect what you do. Get paid properly. And actually enjoy the life you've built around it. And yes, that needs to include making money.

That's the whole point of Brand Mastery Accelerator.

This isn't a course you watch once and forget. It's a membership to a private community that helps experienced designers build fun, lean, highly-profitable lifestyle businesses. The kind where you earn more, work less, and run a calm, profitable studio you're proud of.

Here's everything you get inside:


• 6 x phases of in-depth video training - how to run a lean, highly-profitable studio, end to end.
• 2 x live Zoom calls every week - real, live problem-solving on clients, pricing, mindset and business decisions.
• The community - a tight, vetted group of brand designers from all over the world. No gatekeeping. Real mates.
• 300+ hours of call recordings - fully transcribed and searchable. The answer to almost any question you'll ever have about running a design business.
• Monthly TalkShop guest sessions - past guests include James Greenfield (Koto), CJ Cawley, James Barnard, Errol Gerson, Amy Hood (Hoodzpah), Mitch Wallis (Heart On My Sleeve), Dan Janssen (Lincoln Design Co), James Martin and more.
• Custom-built AI tools - for brand strategy, marketing assets, planning and scaling your business.
• All my templates, frameworks and working files - proposals, contracts, workshop decks, sales scripts, dashboards, SOPs, the lot. Plug and play. Swap my name for yours.
• The Marketing and Sales Playbook - funnels, webinars, content systems, productising your services and building multiple revenue streams so you're not just charging for your time.
• 5-Day Content-to-Client Challenge - a quick reset to lock in your niche and content system in under a week.
• The Jobs Board - new projects shared with the community. Some members make their investment back within days of joining.
• VIP PowerPack - limited-edition merch and goodies, posted to you in the flesh.
• Software discounts - on the tools we actually use.
• Certificate of completion - letter-pressed, gold-foiled, posted to you.
• Lifetime access to all course modules, frameworks & templates.

I also share deep and personal experiences on how I do things like:

• Build a service design business to 6-figure per month revenue
• Create brands like Heaps Normal, Hyro, Posca & Koja - now worth millions
• Run a profitable design studio with my wife, whilst raising three kids, navigating ADHD, OCD, general anxiety disorder, and still love the work

28 years in. I'm still learning. But I know what works now, and I know what I wish someone had told me 28 years ago.

Here's the thing though - I don't take everyone.

I run small intakes, then shut the doors. It's capped at 25 members. That's not a marketing trick, it's just how the model works. Any bigger and I can't give you the time and attention that actually moves the needle. So we keep it tight and that keeps the quality high.

The investment is $7,500 USD for a 6-month membership, or $3,000 USD for the 6-week sprint. We have a payment plan available, if that helps with cashflow.

There's also a 14-day, 100% money-back guarantee. Come in, look under the hood, and if it's not for you in the first two weeks, you get every cent back. No questions asked.

So here's how it works.

Click the Apply button below and fill in the application. Takes about 3 minutes. Put some thought into it. Low-effort applications rarely get through. Then book a day and time for our call.

I personally read every single application. Within 48 hours, I'll come back to you to let you know if it's a good fit and confirm next steps.

If it is, you'll jump on the call with me. Not with a closer. Not with some sales rep. With me, Pete. We'll make sure you're right for the programme, and that the programme's right for you.

If you've read this far and you're nodding along, then odds are, this is for you.

You probably know you're capable of more. You just need the systems, the mentorship, and the accountability to make it happen.

That's what Brand Mastery Accelerator gives you.

You're already good enough. You just haven't been shown the business side. That's fixable.

Hope to see your application come through.​
