Brand Up Close And Personal Is Best

Brand Up Close And Personal Is Best

“In 2025, Brand, Personal Brand is going to be a key marketing element.”

Those aren’t my words. They are the opinion of more than a couple extremely successful internet entrepreneurs.

Why?

  • AI is changing the way people search on-line. When the answer to your question is not a pile of listings to read through but rather a single or at most two citations you want to know that the source is credible. A name associated with the data is more believable. Always.
  • When you are inundated with e-mails, one coming from a person you recognize is worthy of more trust. Every time.
  • Search engine optimization is still linked to key phrases but when the name of a resource you can count on is part of those phrases well, you get the picture.

Personal not Corporate or Product

Your Personal Brand is now more important than ever. People don’t buy from companies. They buy from people. They make purchases from individuals with personalities they can sync with. They lay out hard-earned cash to folks they feel they know, like and trust.

Feelings not Logic

Prospects become customers or clients because of emotional rapport rather than a review of features and benefits. All of us find it easier to build a relationship with a person than an object. We are, human, after all.

Keep it up close

The better your potential customers get to know you the better your conversions will be. You will still have to find away to meet them. You will still have to begin and extended dialog. You will still have to provide content they can use. You will still have to wait until they are ready to buy. Your chances of getting the sale are better if you stay up close and personal with them. Every time.

The Takeaways:

1.    Your name is easier to remember than a legal corporate moniker.

2.    Your personal brand is imbued with emotional triggers by the prospect.

3.    Your chances of being the go-to resource are built on relationships.

Trust, Credibility and Success

Your personal brand is what patrons come to trust. It is the foundation of your credibility. And Credibility leads to Cash.
