How To Build A Personal Brand That Generates Revenue

A personal brand isn't your headshot. It's the shortcut a stranger uses to decide whether you're worth their time and money. Get the shortcut right and revenue follows.

Start with the outcome, not the aesthetic

Before you touch a colour palette, write the sentence you want a stranger to say about you after 30 seconds on your profile. That sentence is your brand.

Own a category of one

Don't compete as another 'marketing consultant'. Pick a niche small enough that you can be the obvious first call - then own it in public.

Publish proof, not opinions

Opinions build followers. Proof builds clients. Share the mechanics behind the results - the framework, the numbers, the before-and-after.
