Should I create a logo for my studio cats and feature them prominently on my website?
Animals and pets are huge attention-grabbers on social media, so featuring your cats in content is an excellent idea. However, don’t start by creating a logo—that’s too much work upfront with lots of iterations and decisions. Instead, simply incorporate your cats naturally into your content and storytelling. Mention them in your About section, acknowledge how they make you feel and inspire you, and introduce them as your studio helpers or art assistants with playful roles (like one being ‘in charge of pigments’). Create content with them regularly. As you post, you’ll notice videos featuring the cats get more views and comments—that’s when you’ll understand how to ‘monetize’ them, which really means using them to capture attention. Let the storytelling evolve organically rather than over-planning upfront.
