You're seeing a wave of announcements on LinkedIn sharing their lists of Top Voices.
Can I hoot my horn to say - that it's now my 4th year in a row that I have been added to the list. This time its Marketing & Advertising
Still, I bet you're wondering... How can I get on this list next year?
What do I need to do to level up my brand?
There are many advantages of having your own distribution channel on LinkedIn;
- organic reach to cultivate relations
- direct conversation with your target market
- building a reputation as the authority and expert in the space
- sales and partnership opportunities
In this video specifically, I outline the 7Vs framework. 7 steps to help you build your personal brand and influence.
This is the first step to building your brand and paving the stone to be a Top Voice.
Learn How To Be A Top Voice Using The 7Vs
The 7Vs - The framework for personal branding and influence
- Vision - what impact do you want to create?
- Values (1) What are your personal values? This will help with maintaining authenticity. (2) What is your value proposition in business?
- Volks - Rhymes with folks, and stands for people - who are your key target market?
- Visuals - How do you present and you stand out from the crowd? I use fried chicken to trigger memories and anchor my brand.
- Voice - What are your key message and topics that reinforce your brand?
- Validation - what are your metrics of growth and success? How many followers do you want? How many clients do you want to gain?
- Victory - how do you plan to monetize? What product and services are you offering? Does your business model make sense?
Every new project and client I work with always goes through the 7Vs with me. It allows me to see their strength and holes in the influence.
The good thing is when you have a healthy assessment of your brand and positioning, you can learn and grow.

On another final note, I've written a detailed piece last year outlining my journey to be a Top Voice.
I'm excited for next year; I've mentioned to LinkedIn's CEO, Ryan, that we need to make LinkedIn more content-creator-centric. I see the future of professionals and leaders like yourself becoming content creators.
Allowing you to own your voice and building your own channels, audience and allowing you to build an inbound approach.
Let's pave the path for the next wave of creators and influencers. I'm not talking about Instagrammers who does food, but knowledge-based experts and thought leaders who want to amplify their message and impact society.
If you're ready for that future, subscribe to String's Theory. We're about to go into String's speed.
