curate your foundation
Know who you are. Know who you serve. Know exactly what to say.
the why
Before anything else in your marketing works, your brand needs a foundation
Your social media, your website, your sales conversations, your emails: all of it works better when your messaging is clear and your positioning is sharp.
This is the work most founders put off. And everything that comes after it suffers because of it.
Eight weeks to build it right, once, for good.
Curate your foundation
week-by-week overview
Dive into our full week-by-week itinerary below:
Week 1: Know Your Business
Who you are, what you do, and what makes you different. You leave with a clear picture of your position in the market and the AI foundation you will build on for the next seven weeks.
Week 2: Know Your Client
Deep dive into ideal client persona development. We go beyond demographics into psychology. You leave with fully written personas you will reference and feed AI for every piece of content going forward.
Week 3: Your Core Messaging
With your personas in hand, we build your messaging framework. We use AI prompting to test, pressure-check, and refine until every version feels natural and lands clearly. You will know what to say in any room by the end of this session.
Week 4: Brand Voice and Tone
We translate your messaging into a repeatable voice. What words do you use? What do you never say? How do you show up differently in a sales conversation versus a social post versus an email? You leave with a written voice and tone guide your whole team can use, plus the AI prompts to write on-brand content in any format.
Week 5: Brand Identity
Logo direction, color palette, and typography. We audit what you have, identify what is working, and map out the visual direction that reflects the brand you have just defined. You leave with a visual direction that finally matches the quality of your work.
Week 6: Messaging Deck with Brand Guide
We take everything built in Weeks 1 through 5 and assemble it into one deck. This becomes your internal north star, your external-facing reference, and your AI operating guide.
Week 7: Media Kit and Presentation Deck
We take week 6 deliverables and build out a polished, on-brand presentation deck ready to use in sales conversations, pitches, and partner meetings, and a media kit that’s in place for any new opportunity.
Week 8: Integration and AI Workflow
We zoom out and map how your foundation connects to everything you will build next: your website, your social media, your sales process, and your email marketing. We finalize your custom AI prompts and workflows so you can create consistent, on-brand content independently. The session closes with your Brand Brief presentation to the group.
The Finale
You walk out with a finished brand, a clear voice, presentation materials, and the AI workflows to continue scaling from here.

every session is real and live
Karissa and Abigail host each call themselves. You'll get feedback in the moment, from people who've built brands for founders just like you, alongside a small group of other founders doing the same work in real time.
Built from the same six-pillar method Curated Studios uses with every client, starting with the pillar that everything else depends on: your message.

frequently asked questions
Do I need to complete Curate Your Foundation before Curate Your Feed?
It is strongly recommended but not required. Curate Your Feed is designed for participants who already have clarity on their brand, their audience, and their messaging. If that foundation is already solid, you are ready. If you are not sure, start with Curate Your Foundation. The two programs are designed to build directly on each other.
Can I do both cohorts?
Yes, and many participants do. They run in sequence by design: Foundation first, Feed second, so the work from one cohort flows directly into the next.
Is this a mastermind?
No. This is structured implementation with real-time feedback and weekly deliverables.
Is this a course?
No. This is a live, high-touch build experience inside a small group. You leave every session with something completed, not something to watch later.
Do I need to know how to use AI already?
No. We train you on how to set up and use AI for your marketing as part of the program. You will leave knowing exactly how to make it work for your business.
How much time should I commit?
One 90-minute live session per week, plus two to four hours of implementation between sessions. This is active building, not passive learning.
Is there one-on-one support?
The program is group-based. Optional office hours are available for deeper support between sessions.
Is this remote or in-person?
Fully remote. Charleston-based participants are welcome to join in person for the Week 8 celebration and final presentations.
What happens after the program ends?
Many participants choose to continue working with us through project-based support or an ongoing retainer, depending on their goals and next stage of growth. The foundation you build here is designed to grow with you.
Why is the investment at this level?
Because what you build here replaces months, often years, of scattered and misaligned marketing. You leave with clarity, real assets, AI skills, and systems most founders do not put in place until much later. And you leave knowing how to use all of it.
Is AI training included?
Yes. AI training is built into every session in both cohorts. You will leave with custom prompts, workflows, and a working knowledge of how to use AI tools to create content, maintain your brand voice, and run your marketing more efficiently.
Do I need to be tech-savvy to participate?
No. Both cohorts are designed to meet you where you are. Our strategists guide you through every tool and platform step by step, including the AI components, so you leave feeling confident, not overwhelmed.
