Authentic Brand Storytelling

In this solo episode, I’m jamming about a subject that is near and dear to my heart:

BRAND IDENTITY

I really wanted to do an episode about this, because MANY people who work with me to get zero’d in on their messaging and story as a brand, or to increase their ability to create balance and truly THRIVE as a creative making money -- struggle with this.Specifically, they struggle with understanding what about themselves is interesting, valuable, and unique enough to become a brand that garners the success that they are after.It’s easy to look at brands that really nail it -- like Apple, or Nike… and think you have to be like them. But that’s not always the whole truth. When you’re a small business, online or off, what’s important is that your brand has two components.

  1. It needs to be PERSONAL.(so, why does a human being CARE about this?)

  2. And… it needs to be UNIVERSAL.(so, far reaching)

Don't worry -- in the episode I share some questions you can ask yourself to make sure you're on the right track.After you listen to this week’s episode, head over to the Creatives Making Money Facebook Group to continue the conversation and share your insights!Create like you mean it,Jamie
