Since I finished the course, I was able to charge $8,000 for my last project, a package of a logo and a website together - which before I used to charge about around $2,000 a website and maybe like $500 for a logo. That was a huge step for me!
I've been a member of Flux Academy for maybe a year - there's a world of difference between learning something on your own and being able to reach out for help and getting answers within a day or so. And that's what this community is. These people are very helpful and they're always there and if you're on the fence, I suggest giving this a shot because it's legit. Good luck.
The course has a very good blend of theory and practice. I especially love being able to learn from 3 experts with different backgrounds and perspectives. Even though I'm still new to the field, I have already started to implement the learnings for my client. The brand strategy goes hand in hand with web design so I am excited to add it as part of my offerings!
Very helpful for my career! I’ve been developing my career as a freelance brand designer for the past 6 years, this course really helped me to build a solid foundation for what the design process looks like in the professional field. The course also provided tools which I was missing which now helps me to create a better workflow. Excellent teachers, personal interaction, very good educative videos & I highly recommend this course if you want to become a better brand designer.
The Brand Mastery course exceeded my expectations and proved to be a game-changer in my understanding of branding. The instructors' mentorship, the well-structured curriculum, and the emphasis on hands-on learning were the standout features of this course.
Having been fired from my job in December of last year, I was of course distraught but I knew I wanted to take time to learn a new skill that I could use to create income, while having fulfillment. That's where I decided on design and found Flux via YouTube. I invested in their Brand Design Mastery course and it has completely helped me in every way possible. I've learned so much and after putting everything into action, I've gained enough confidence to put my services out there (even got myself my first client!).
What I love about the Brand Design Mastery is that it really focuses on the process and not just on the skills. It gives the participants everything they might need to offer branding. Following this process gives me the confidence that I can provide high-quality service and improve my abilities fast.
I just finished [Brand Design Mastery] and I learned so many skills - from processes and strategies to building up on my creativity and finalising and delivering a proper brand identity - this course was amazing and I definitely feel so much more confident in my abilities to be able to provide the type of work that I really want to do =)

One of the best return-on-investments I've made for my business. I've owned my website design business for just over 4 years and was wanting to start offering brand design & Webflow to my services. Even though I could technically learn it myself, I always felt overwhelmed and felt like I needed direction and support from experts. Flux exceeded my expectations & I now feel SO confident offering these services to my clients. Also, a huge thank you to Fungi, the brand design coach, who gave such helpful feedback & kept me motivated during the entire process with her positive energy. I highly recommend Flux Academy, you won't regret it - 10/10
I recently completed the Brand Design Mastery course and am so glad that I took the leap to sign up for the course! My instructor, Fungi Dube, was so kind and thoughtful throughout the experience and took the time to leave me personalized feedback on each aspect of my project. I definitely grew as a designer during this course and especially learned a lot about brand strategy. This course helped me with my goal to become a freelance brand identity designer.
I had an amazing experience with the "Brand Mastery" course. The videos were very informative and detailed. My mentor Fungi Dube was amazing, she provided very detailed feedback with comments and examples. She clarified things when needed, she also challenged you to reach for more. It is obvious she loves what she does and it is important to her you understand all the concepts so you can provide outstanding service to a potential client.
The content was structured well and the feedback from Fungi, was great. Truly great. She has the eyes of a hawk spotting the tiniest details for improvements. I loved it!
Really good experience with the certification. I especially learned a lot during the strategy phase, where we went in-depth into marketing strategies. I would recommend it to anyone interested in taking its branding skills to the next level.
I highly recommend Flux Academy to anyone on their design journey. I completed a nationally recognised course [on brand design] around the same time and the support and feedback I received was nothing compared to that from Fungi from the Flux Academy. The content was also extremely well structured.
The Brand Design Mastery course was full of knowledge that allowed me, as a long-time designer, to consolidate and supplement my knowledge of business and strategy. The holistic approach to the design process gave me great insight into how a designer must take care of a brand from the very beginning. Each stage of the course was transparent and very interestingly presented. However, personal mentoring is a hit.
Great experience! I really appreciate the opportunity to learn from the instructors and from my course mentor Fungi. I've been offering limited brand strategy and design for years, but I've only rarely had the opportunity to create a truly comprehensive brand identity, so this course pushed me to tighten up my SOP, develop and practice skills I rarely flex, and learn from the approaches and mindsets of those with stronger expertise than my own. Many thanks to the whole team!
This brand design course gave me something I had been missing for years: confidence and a framework. It is a manageable system that I can count on to deliver better results for my clients. I couldn't be happier with this course; my mentor Fungi was a delight to work with.
