Personal vs. Business: The Ultimate Branding Showdown with Pamela Wilson

Evolution of Brand

Top 3 Takeways From This Value-Packed Conversation:

• Understanding the long-term goals for your brand is important. If you intend to sell it in the future, it can be more difficult if the brand is built around your name. It can still be done, but it's harder for the brand to carry the name of an individual when that individual is no longer part of the operations
• We are suckers for a good story. And when a brand emerges that we fall in love with, it's not always just about that brand itself...it's about the person (or people) behind the brand that we want to know more about. As our loyalty to that brand grows, we want to know who are they, how did they build the brand, and what's the story behind their success
• The power of content marketing cannot be overlooked. It's important to find an approach that best suits your strengths AND keeps you invested in the process. Whether it be podcasting, blogging, videos, social media campaigns, email, or a combination of all or some of those items, putting the most helpful content in front of your ideal customer is going to provide a significant boost to the trust they have in you
