How Jamie Mazuryk looks, sounds and shows up,
everywhere her name appears.

Version 1.1 · September 2026
Jamie Mazuryk in a green armchair

01 The brand

Real estate, told straight.

Jamie is a Capital Region Associate Real Estate Broker, entrepreneur, mom and connector. Real estate is the foundation of what she does. Her personality, her relationships, her taste and her willingness to say the true thing are what make the brand recognizable. People should want to follow Jamie, not just hire a realtor.

"This is Jamie. She knows everyone, knows the market, has great taste, and is the person you want in your corner."The brand in one breath

She feels

ConfidentCandidSmartConnectedWarmFunA little spicyAuthentic, above all

She never feels

CorporateOver-polishedGenericSalesyRealtor Instagram

Three lanes

The filter for every decision.

Client sales

Buy or sell with Jamie. The truth, a plan, and a fee she explains and holds.

Agent partners

Selected, never recruited. Agents who hold her standard and trade the clients they trust.

Personality and media

YouTube, Instagram, the TV segments, free playbooks, advising, and later a community.

02 Vision, mission and principles

Why it exists, and how it behaves.

Vision · where it is going

The voice of reason in real estate.

Ten years from now, people don't search for an agent. They ask for Jamie. The agents she has trained work the same way across the region, her voice reaches far past the Capital Region, and her business runs on who she is, not on her hours.

Mission · what she does every day

Tell people what is true, then get them there.

When real estate gets loud, with bidding wars, price estimates and AI answers, Jamie is the real voice people trust to tell them what's true. The first call for anyone buying or selling in the Capital Region, and the leader other agents learn from.

What it is

Real estate, told straight. The agent you call when you're ready to buy a house, not look at one, and the voice other agents learn the standard from.

The Standard

Six principles, the same for anyone who carries her name.

Each one comes with the question it decides.

01

Truth first

Say what's true, even when it costs the deal.

DecidesAm I saying what is true, or what is easy?

02

Connected

She knows the right person for every problem, and puts them to work for you.

DecidesWho is the best person to solve this, and have I made the call?

03

Handled

The problem isn't explained. It's solved.

DecidesWhat is the real problem, and what solves it?

04

Conviction

Name the value of the work plainly, and stand behind it.

DecidesIs the value clear enough that the price makes sense?

05

The work leads

The money follows the work. It isn't the reason for it.

DecidesWould I give this advice if it paid me less?

06

Presence

A real person who answers the phone and knows your name.

DecidesIs a real person giving a real answer here?

03 Voice

It sounds like Jamie talking.

Conversational and confident. She has opinions and says them. If it reads like a marketing team wrote it, rewrite it until it sounds like her at the kitchen table.

How to write like her

  • Say the true thing first. The price, the risk, the mistake. Then the plan.
  • Short sentences. One idea each. Plain words over industry words.
  • Have an opinion. "I would not do that" beats "it depends."
  • Real stories, real mistakes. Her own, with client details left out.
  • End on a next step. Watch, download, book, call.
  • No em dashes, no exclamation stacks, no hashtag walls.

Her lines

In her own words. Use them the way she says them.

You're going to get the truth from me all the time.I got a guy for everything.You don't call me to look at houses. You call me to buy one.If you don't know your value, other people won't.It can't be about money.

Brand lines. Taglines for headlines, covers and bios.

04 What she talks about

Five themes, one person.

Real estate, lifestyle, local expertise, leadership and personality. Every post fits at least one theme, and sounds like the same woman in all five.

Real estate

Buying, selling, investing, offers, inspections, negotiation, and standing up for the client.

Capital Region

Local businesses, restaurants, neighborhoods, people and events. The life of living here.

Lifestyle and wealth

Building a life you love. Real estate as an investment. The first home that becomes the first rental.

Leadership

Career, confidence, mentorship, and encouraging other women to think bigger.

Jamie IRL

Behind the scenes, family, humor, daily life, and the reality of running a business.

06 Color

Night, champagne and gold.

A deep night blue does most of the work, warm paper keeps it human, and champagne and gold are the accent. Gold is jewelry: a little goes a long way.

How much of each

A typical page, post or print piece.

NIGHT 45%
PAPER 30%
SLATE
GOLD

Slate about 15%; champagne and gold together about 10%.

Text on color: pairs that read

Ink on Paper13.5 : 1
White on Night17.4 : 1
Champagne on Night12.1 : 1
White on Slate5.7 : 1
Gold ink on Paper4.7 : 1
Gold on PaperHeadlines only · 2.4 : 1

4.5 : 1 is the minimum for reading text. Flat gold on a light background works only for big headlines or decoration; for small gold text on light, use Gold ink. Print values are a starting point: ask the printer for a proof before a large run.

07 Typography

An editorial serif, a clean sans.

Two families, both free on Google Fonts and built into Canva. Nothing else.

Headlines · Playfair Display

Aa Aa

Regular 400 and Medium 500, with Italic for emphasis. For headlines, quotes, her signature and big numbers.

Everything else · Poppins

Aa

Regular 400 for reading. Medium 500 and SemiBold 600 for labels and buttons. ExtraBold 800 only for video thumbnail hooks.

The signature move

Most headlines come in two parts: a plain first half, then an italic second half that lands the point. One italic phrase per headline, never more. For the one word that really matters, use the gold highlight underneath. Headlines are sentence case; only eyebrows and buttons are all caps.

08 Photography

Her face, real rooms, real people.

Modern, editorial, elevated, warm. Feminine but not girly. A mix of polished branding photos and candid, social-first moments. Houses support the story; Jamie is the story.

Use

  • Eye contact, a real expression, her glasses.
  • Warm, natural light and real rooms.
  • Cutouts of Jamie on the slate backgrounds for video covers.
  • The arch crop for portraits on the site and in print.
  • Local places and people, credited when they are a business.

Avoid

  • Stock photos of houses or handshakes as the main image.
  • Heavy filters, fake blur, or poses with a SOLD sign.
  • Clients' faces or homes without written permission.
  • Photos of her family without her OK for that use.
  • Busy backgrounds behind text or the logo.

09 In use

What it looks like out in the world.

YouTube cover, 16:9. A slate background, Jamie cut out on the right, the hook big and left, its second line in champagne. No play button: YouTube adds its own.
Quote card, 4:5. Night, a big serif quote with an italic turn, the monogram small.
The arch

Portraits sit in an arch: round top, soft square corners.

The italic turn

Plain first half, italic second half. You call to buy a house. We get you there.

The gold underline

A soft gold highlight under the one word that matters.

The ask

Pill buttons in champagne with dark text, all caps, spaced out.

11 The rules that aren't optional

A licensed broker's brand plays by the book.

Jamie is a New York State Associate Real Estate Broker with Venture Fox Realty Group. These rules protect her license, and they come before any design choice.

19 NYCRR 175.25Name the brokerage and the license type.

Anything that advertises her real estate services says Venture Fox Realty Group and "Associate Real Estate Broker," exactly. Every page of her website carries it, with a link to the brokerage.

19 NYCRR 175.21The broker approves advertising.

New claims, offers, playbooks and campaigns go to Venture Fox's broker before they go live.

19 NYCRR 175.29Fair housing, always.

Her website links the NYS Housing and Anti-Discrimination Notice on every page. Never describe who a home is "perfect for" by family status, age, religion or any protected group.

AntitrustNever publish a commission rate.

Commissions are negotiable and set with each client in writing. Her rate never appears in marketing.

Truth in advertisingReal reviews, real credentials.

Reviews word for word, with the source. Awards and rankings named with where they came from. No invented numbers.

Regulation ZPayment examples carry the terms.

Any example with a down payment or monthly payment also states the rate, APR, term and number of payments.

The license line. Jamie Mazuryk, Associate Real Estate Broker with Venture Fox Realty Group. Equal Housing Opportunity.

A number other than the brokerage's is labeled by type (Cell), as New York's advertising rule requires. The brokerage name and Equal Housing Opportunity stay in.

13 Do and don't

The short version.

Do

  • Lead with Jamie's face and Jamie's words.
  • Say the true thing first, then the plan.
  • Give most of the space to Night, paper and slate. Save gold for accents.
  • Set headlines in Playfair with one italic turn, everything else in Poppins.
  • Use the logo files from the kit, at the sizes in chapter 5.
  • Put the brokerage and license line on anything that sells her services.
  • End every piece of content on one clear next step.

Don't

  • Sound like a marketing team, or like realtor Instagram.
  • Stretch, recolor, shadow or retype the logo.
  • Use foil gold for text or backgrounds.
  • Add a third font, or more than one italic phrase to a headline.
  • Use em dashes, exclamation stacks or dream-home language.
  • Publish a commission rate, an unsourced credential or an edited review.
  • Use the retired Homes Team logo on anything new.
