The What and Why of Personal Brand ?? Post #8 It’s all about confidence. Last night, I had dinner with an old and wonderful friend, Georgie Janion-Shaw, who shared some eye-opening stats with me: ?? 80% of 11-18-year-olds can’t name a single female entrepreneur (Santander) ?? Kids are 4x more likely to think of a man than a woman when they hear “entrepreneur” (Santander) ?? Only 39% of women feel confident starting a business, compared to 56% of men (Rose Review) Today, I want to give a HUGE shout-out to one of the coolest female entrepreneur & personal brand case studies I know (my daughter would be so proud!): none other than Taylor Swift. ???? Why is Taylor’s personal brand so strong? She knows exactly who she is and what she stands for. She lives her brand every day, embodying “Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” ??? Taylor’s brand power lies in her storytelling. She lets fans into her world by weaving her personal experiences into every song, creating a bond through her authenticity and emotional depth. Her brand isn’t just music; it’s a movement. ???? Please?hero a female entrepreneur with a memorable personal brand in the comments below ???? We ALL need to talk more about female founders. Thank you for the inspiration, Georgie and BUY WOMEN BUILT???? #PersonalBrand #FemaleEntrepreneurs #WomenBuilt #CreativeWorksCollective #TaylorSwift

Motivated Money Monday: Brand Power, Relevance, and Bold Moves ? At the Innovate Festival, I was reminded of the unique power of entrepreneurship. Three dynamic women leaders—Amanda E/J Morrison Morrison of Julie, Melissa Ben-Ishay of Baked by Melissa, and @Yoon Ahn a designer with collaborations from Nike to Bulgari—shared how they built brands that resonate far beyond their products. Here’s what stood out: Tap Into Passion & Purpose: Each brand started with a passion—whether it’s reproductive justice or cupcakes—and a vision to make a difference. Find what drives you and build a brand that speaks to your values and purpose. Stay Connected to Culture: Relevance comes from knowing your audience and speaking to their world. From Tiktok trends to college coffee shop partnerships, these leaders understand that success requires being tapped into the culture and evolving alongside it. Bold Moves Bring Big Rewards: Whether it’s discussing reproductive health in a world that shies away from tough conversations or pivoting a cupcake brand to nationwide success, they leaned into bold choices. Don’t shy away from taking risks if it aligns with your mission. These women show us that building a brand isn’t just about products—it’s about engaging in cultural conversations, leading with purpose, and staying nimble in a changing world. Ready to make your next bold move? Let’s discuss how YOU plan to stay relevant and build your brand with purpose in a rapidly changing landscape! ???? What bold move are you making this week?

+ WHY YOU ARE MY MISSION I believe in the transformative power of branding to strengthen confidence among female entrepreneurs. ???? My mission is to craft brands as beacons of empowerment, enabling the incredible women I partner with to radiate confidence, sass, and power. Through strategic, bold branding, I aim to change the visual facade and essence of how female entrepreneurs perceive themselves and their businesses. It's about creating a brand so badass that it instils an unwavering belief in its ability to conquer the universe. My vision is a world where the empowering clarity of strategic branding banishes insecurity and doubt for female business owners. I see a future where Lark Brand Studio has played a pivotal role in crafting brand identities that resonate deeply with their creators and speak directly to their dream clients. By tearing up the 'rulebook', I aim to establish a new standard where brands genuinely reflect their owners' essence—distinct, memorable, and daringly different. I envision a business landscape transformed by women who stand tall in their brand's identity, equipped to showcase their unparalleled value and engage their audience with every fibre of their being.

Women-led businesses outperform, full stop. ?? Did you know women-led businesses deliver 2x the ROI but still face systemic barriers to growth? So why are they still underestimated?

This article is a terrific call-out. As someone who’s consulted for a few Black beauty brands, I’ve noticed that the industry often conflated two distinct propositions: brands founded by Black founders (not Black centered) and brands for Black consumers (founded by Black founders). This muddied the narrative and sometimes reduced the conversation to surface-level representation rather than a deeper dive into market potential. Too often, the focus shifted to traditional financial metrics, like scalability or EBITDA, without fully appreciating the cultural nuance and market opportunity these brands represent. There’s a lot of room for growth if we recalibrate the lens. #wompwomp #Marketopportunity #Valueproposition #Strategy

If you are a women in sales you want to hear this… regardless of what product you are selling…. Lotions, Potions, Logistics, Trucking or even coaching…. You need Marketing Skills. Why you may ask? Marketing is not posting about your products. Marketing is basically the process of getting people interested in what you have to offer, whether it's a product, service, or idea. Think of it like telling the world about something you believe can help them or improve their life, and doing it in a way that grabs their attention. To do that you first have to believe in your offer. You have to be willing to proclaim it loud and proud with the risk of others disagreeing with you, judging you and even laughing at you behind your back. All you women in male dominated industries will know this fear…. What will they think about me? Do I sound stupid? So many insecurities. That’s scary…… especially when you don’t have the skills to be confident within your own believe system ….. when you don’t know your own values, trust your own skills and have a circle of support around you. But let me tell you….. CONFIDENCE IS A SKILL….. A SKILL that can be learned…. #Walkitfree #WomenInBusiness #WomenEntrepreneurs #BusinessWomen #FemaleLeaders #WomenEmpowerment #MindsetMatters #GrowthMindset #LeadershipDevelopment #PersonalDevelopment #MentalFreedom #InnerPeace #WomenWhoLead #MindsetForSuccess #EmpoweredWomen #BusinessMindset #FemaleEntrepreneurs #WomenInLeadership #ConfidenceAndGrowth #SuccessMindset #WomenSupportingWomen
