"I'm the leader of a profitable, well organised company. Why do I need a personal brand?" is a query I often hear from CEOs, Founders, Managing Directors, Presidents. Fair point. Only, you already have one. Everyone has a personal brand. We used to call it your 'reputation'. Brand management used to be 'PR'. PR consultants were notoriously expensive. Such was the value of reputation management. Reputation determined whether you did business. Do you leave sales, operations or cashflow to chance? Or do you take steps to ensure results are in your favour? Personal ???????????????? is the strategic optimisation of your reputation.

If you are a CEO struggling to build your personal brand, I understand your pain. You know that a strong brand presence can open doors and build trust, but it is also time-consuming to manage on top of running a company. To solve this, you can hand the task over to in-house staff. The problem is that without a branding expert to guide the strategy, and with your staff juggling your personal brand with their regular company responsibilities, this approach often leads to inconsistency, a lack of creativity, and missed opportunities to showcase excellence. As a result, your personal brand as a CEO will lose value and impact, falling short of its true potential. That is why you need a dedicated agency for your personal brand. At Bradital, we understand what it takes to build an impactful personal brand for CEOs. Our agency is dedicated to helping leaders like you create a brand presence that’s both influential and trustworthy, driving business growth and positioning you as an industry leader. All we need from you is one day every month, so you can have time to focus on your CEO duties. If you’re ready to build your personal brand, then you should send us a DM and we will book a call with you Go Bradit

Thinking about revamping your brand? A branding agency can be a great partner, but to save time and money upfront, there's some homework you should do first! Here are a few areas your company should be prepared to discuss: Industry Landscape: Know your competitors, industry trends, and challenges. How will these trends impact your business in the long term? Know Your Business: What makes you (truly) unique? Spoiler! Being trusted and claiming to offer the best customer service is not a unique attribute. Where can you improve? Understand your target audiences and their needs Business Stakeholders: Who are the key players in your company? Map them out to understand communication needs and who needs to be involved. Its important to have internal buy-in throughout the entire process Company Culture: Define your company culture and how it's reflected internally and externally. Your Brand Vision: What brands do you admire? Why? Why is branding important in your industry? What are your business goals? What do you want your brand/business to have achieve in 10-20 years time? For branding work to be effective, the CEO and board of directors will need to be involved in the process, its business critical. When the board and and senior leaders collaborate to shape the future brand, success is inevitable. #branding #business #marketing

?? ???????????????????? ?????? ???????????? ???????? ?????????? – the 7th and final step of the Personal Branding Journey ?? In a constantly shifting professional landscape, the ability to reevaluate and refine your personal brand is vital for long-term success. Regularly revisiting how your brand aligns with both your goals and how others perceive you helps ensure it remains authentic, dynamic, and effective. ?? At this stage of Daniel Bak’s personal brand journey, the focus was on fine-tuning his message. With valuable input from trusted colleagues and mentors, Daniel gained fresh insights, which helped refine his brand into a powerful reflection of his ability to lead with empathy and innovation. ???????????????? ???????????????? ???? ???? ?????????????? ??????????????. ?? As you reflect on your own personal brand, what areas could benefit from a fresh perspective or refinement? The rewards are endless: credibility, connections, leadership impact, and career growth. Each step forward refines your story and strengthens your identity. ?? By sharing this journey, we hope to inspire you to take control of your own brand, define your narrative, and make a lasting impact. Check out Eva Andersson’s post for more in-depth insights, and if you’re curious about the previous steps, you can find them in the comment section below. Together, we can learn, grow, and support each other! ?? Let’s keep levelling up! ?? + ?? = ??
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? To maintain a strong brand, it’s essential to regularly assess how your value proposition and narratives fit into your current professional and personal context and how they’re being received. This requires continuous adjustments and is an ongoing process. In a world teeming with talent and opportunities, your unique story deserves to shine. ???A strong personal brand sets you apart in a competitive landscape. ???A clear brand fosters credibility, making connections and collaborations easier. ???A well-defined brand positions you as a thought leader, enhancing your impact. ???Investing in your brand opens doors to career advancements and partnerships. ???A solid identity allows you to pivot without losing your core message. ? Now, let’s explore the final, yet equally important,?Step 7: Reevaluate and Adjust Your Brand. Daniel Bak and I began by conducting an audit to identify areas for improvement and to capitalize on his strengths. We engaged Daniel’s chosen truth tellers—trusted colleagues, mentors, and friends—to uncover how his current image aligns with his goals. For example, if you’re aspiring to a managerial position but discover that not everyone perceives you as a strong leader, take proactive steps: enroll in a leadership training course, volunteer to lead a new project, or assume relevant roles in your personal life, like joining a nonprofit board. In Daniel's case, moving to Sweden presented a cultural shift. We bridged this gap by assembling a Swedish support team focused on enhancing his leadership, cultural integration, visual brand and language skills. This tailored approach provided him with valuable experience, enabling him to lead the creation of an AI business consultancy with an authentic edge. Consequently, our goal is to enhance his personal value proposition: “Among all prospective AI business consultants, I bring strategic experience and empathetic leadership to build trust and drive successful change management. I can provide business oversight and serve as a creative partner for executive teams.” Remember, the personal branding process requires effort and authenticity. However, research and experience show that it empowers you to take control of your professional and personal image, ultimately enhancing the success and impact you can have in the world. By showcasing the personal brand journey, we hope to inspire you to build and manage your own brand. Let’s keep levelling up!????+????=???

In today's swiftly changing business landscape, it’s never been more critical to build a brand that can stand the test of time. The question, How can we create a brand that lasts? is something we should not only ask ourselves as leaders but also infuse into the fiber of our teams and operations. Building a brand with longevity requires both an inward and outward focus: -Inwardly, we should shape a brand that aligns with our company's mission, values, and unique selling proposition. It should inspire not just our customers but our employees too. Because after all, the essence of a brand is far more than just a logo or tagline. It encapsulates what we stand for and why we matter. -Outwardly, we need a brand that resonates deeply with our target audiences. A brand they believe in, trust, and can connect with. That connection comes down to clarity: being clear about who we are, what we offer, and what makes us different. Building a durable brand isn't a one-and-done exercise; it's a continuous journey. It requires: 1. Consistency: Deliver on your brand promise every single time. It's one of the major keys to fostering trust. 2. Evolution: Adapting as per market trends and customer expectations is crucial, but without losing the core essence of your brand. 3. Engagement: Cultivating meaningful relationships with your audience is key, be it through social media, customer service or experiences. Building a brand that lasts goes beyond sales, beyond marketing, and certainly beyond the short-term. It's a strategic endeavor involving every aspect of the organization. The resulting brand, rooted in authenticity and delivered consistently, stands the test of time. So, let's roll up our sleeves and work on building brands to last, brands that leave a mark. Because at the end of the day, it's not just about being in the business, it's about being in the memories, the hearts, and the minds of our people and our customers. That's a brand built to last. #branding #businessstrategy #leadership #brandbuilding

How to sell brand to the CEO?? Every client and stakeholder has a different challenge they want to solve. The CMO, Head of Brand and CEO have different priorities. There’s often a debate internally between “brand people” and the sometimes-sceptical key stakeholders. So how do we arm those people with the right materials to bring the team to their side? In last week's newsletter Sonder & Tell shared tips for selling brand to the CEO. These are our top 3 ?? 1.?Make the brand story bigger than marketing You’re more likely to get sign-off if you can show the value of brand beyond marketing. And the value is tangible: a strong brand positioning acts as an organising principle across different areas of the business, with results that can guide customer service, product innovation, people strategy too. 2. Show how brand can build and drive internal culture Having a strong brand can attract, inspire and keep employees around. One of the best pieces of feedback we've ever received is that the tone of voice we’d created for KatKin improved the caliber of applicants for creative roles. 3. Use brand as a compass A solid brand positioning means having a reliable compass for decision-making. From campaign brainstorms to your next hire, brand helps you figure out what fits –?and what doesn't. Read the full newsletter here – t.ly/H56wl And if you're struggling to sell brand internally, drop me a message, I'd be happy to help!

Personal branding is overrated and that it's possible to build a successful company without being highly visible, says LinkedIn Top Voice Hari TN. Building a personal brand involves deeply understanding who you are, what you love to do, and what you stand for, and then sharing those insights with others, he adds. What are a few tips to become visible at work? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
???????????????? ?????????? ????????????????: Is personal brand building even essential? In my opinion, this is highly overrated. Some individuals and leaders have personalities that make them very visible and interesting, or even controversial. Their personalities often have disproportionate impact on the businesses they run, and this is a double edged sword. You don't need to be very visible externally to build a great organisation. Many great companies world-wide are run by people who no one knows about. These leaders are a strange combination of professional assertiveness and personal humility. There used to be a joke in Silicon Valley that if you appear on the cover page of Newsweek, it's almost a sure indication that obscurity would soon follow. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to think of personal brand building in the conventional way. We tend to confuse celebrity status with a personal brand. ??????????????????, ???????? ???? ???????? ???????????????? ?????????? ????????????????? Building a personal brand is largely about two things, and both of these take time. There are no shortcuts. 1. Deeply understanding who you are: What you really love to do and what you stand for 2. Building quietly on both of these. Find opportunities to do what you love and derive crisp, clear and non-obvious insights from them. The key phrase is 'non-obvious'. Hone these insights and weave them into lucid stories Share these liberally with those who really need them without any expectations. If you love writing, then write them out and share them on relevant media. If you love speaking, then articulate them in meetings and conversations. ?????? ???????? ?????? ???? ?????????????? ?? ???????????????? ?????????? ???? ???? ???? ???? ?????????????????? ???????????????????? ?????? ?????? ???????????? ???? ?? ???????????????????????? ?????? ???? ?? ?????????? ?????????? ??????.
