(Our Service Offerings)

Brand Alignment Intensive

Your business has evolved. Does your brand still reflect its value?

Designed for established founders or new business owners wanting alignment from the start, this comprehensive brand audit and alignment strategy examines how your positioning, offers, messaging and visual identity work together to shape what people understand, value and choose you for.

We uncover where your brand is underselling your expertise, where its expression has drifted from your ambition and where your strongest opportunities lie. Together, we define what to retain, what to rethink and how to bring your brand into alignment with the business you want to build.

You leave with a clear strategic direction and a prioritised action plan: stronger foundations for communicating your value, attracting the right clients and making decisions that move your business forward.

When that direction is clear, it informs everything, from the offers you develop and the way you sell, to the opportunities you pursue and the work you become known for.

Full Brand Ecosystem

Building Distinctive Brands.

When your business grows, your brand needs to grow with it. Many founders reach a point where their expertise, offers, and ambitions have evolved, but their brand still reflects an earlier version of the business. The result? A disconnect between the value you create and how the market perceives you.
 
You may find yourself attracting misaligned clients, struggling to communicate your difference, or feeling like your brand no longer represents the calibre of work you deliver.

This experience is designed to align this for you. We combine strategic positioning, creative direction, and immersive design to build a distinctive brand ecosystem, that clearly communicates your value, strengthens your market presence, and creates a distinct foundation to attract higher-value clients.

This is not simply a brand refresh. It is the strategic and creative foundation developed into a body of work that brings an original brand into form.

Creative Mentorship

Strategic and intuitive ongoing partnership for founders, creatives, and freelancers navigating the evolution of their business.

When you build something meaningful, questions about your business can start to feel like questions about yourself. What do you want to be known for? What feels true to you now? Where are you ready to grow, and what do you want to approach differently?

Drawing on certified NLP frameworks and a compassionate approach, I offer space to explore the beliefs, expectations and patterns influencing how you create, make decisions and show up in your work.

You are welcome to bring uncertainty, unfinished ideas and questions you haven’t yet found the words for. There is no prescribed version of success to pursue, or pressure to move in any direction beyond what serves you now. Together, we make room to understand what matters to you and explore the possibilities from there.

Alongside this reflective work, I bring the lens of strategic brand and business advisory. We can consider how your insights translate into your positioning, offers, pricing, visibility or creative direction, connecting the dots to accelerate your growth.

You remain the person who decides what to pursue, what to change and at what pace.

I work with a small number of mentorship clients at a time, allowing for attentive support and a thoughtful understanding of you and your business.

We needed someone who could lead us gently and smartly, we needed someone whom we could trust completely. Kirsty is, and has been, that person. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Kirsty. Here's to our success and to your continued success!"

It was the perfect blend of getting hoenst feedback on how to better my business structures and plan going forward, as well as having time to integrate, relax and return to myself in the process.

Dr Talia Steed

"I had the most beautiful experience during Murni Studio's Business Embodiment Retreat in Bali. The location was an amazing cozy sanctuary, and I loved all the workshops that Kirsty facilitated. I appreciate how Kirsty speaks from her own experiences in business—it feels really refreshing and sincere. After the retreat, I came home with a lot of inspiration and a newfound compassion for myself. Building your own business is not always easy, which is why I believe it's so important to surround yourself with like-minded people who are walking beside or walk the path ahead of you. ♥️ I'm looking forward to more offerings from Murni Studio. Highly recommend!"

"I've had a great experience with Kirsty with both web development for my business, Aspira Cleaning, and advice surrounding the launch of it (this advice created more leads earlier) as well as support around my personal brand during a 1:1 Brand Alignment session. Kirsty looked at my goals holistically from the beginning, even though I engaged with her for one particular requirement originally. I honestly learn so much with every interaction, such a wealth of knowledge. So grateful for you!"
Sheleila D'Paiva
Founder of Aspira Cleaning
"Attending the Business Embodiment Day retreat was an incredible experience! As a small business owner who is typically very practical and always on the move, this retreat was exactly what I needed. The day was beautifully organized with a perfect blend of business discussions, mindset coaching, sound healing, and breathing techniques, all culminating in an ice bath and infrared sauna session. I left with a refreshed mind and a renewed focus on what's truly important for my business, including embracing an abundance mindset and finding ways to enhance my time management.I'm already looking forward to the next retreat and have recommended it to several friends who I know will benefit from it as well. Thank you, Kirsty!"

Founded by Kirsty Gaitens, Murni draws on more than 15 years of branding and marketing experience, supported by certified coaching and NLP training. Our approach combines experienced strategic advice with thoughtful exploration: space to question your direction, recognise your strengths and make decisions you can stand behind.

What is a Brand Alignment Session?

A Brand Alignment Session is an in-depth strategic review that helps established business owners align their brand with the business they want to build.

At Murni Studio, it combines a comprehensive brand audit with a tailored alignment strategy. We examine your positioning, messaging, offers and visual identity to understand what’s working, where your value is being lost or misunderstood, and what needs to evolve to support your goals.

This is a supportive space to think openly, work through uncertainty and explore new possibilities, with guidance that respects your autonomy and the business you want to build.

Creative Mentorship can follow a Brand Alignment Intensive or begin as a standalone partnership. The investment is AUD $1,350 per month, with a six-month minimum commitment.
