That's my problem right there. I came on here with all the professional intentions in the world, and ended up disappearing down a rabbit hole of a thread about how many pillows is the right number on a queen size bed 🤷♂️
There is real power in personal branding. The big problem is people try to invent the person that they'd like to be, rather then being who they are and working out what they stand for. It all unravels very quickly.
Everyone remembers the words in the iPod ad, “A tool for your heart. A thousands songs in your pocket”. But who remembers what the imagery was, or the background colour? Answer: almost no-one. Messaging trumps design. Words trump pictures. Every time.

Morning dreamers and schemers (someone's had his coffee). A Monday morning thought to launch you into a new week. The most important character in any story is the person you're telling it to. Have a great week.
If most founders were honest, they'd admit that if their start up's website headline was their Tinder profile, they'd die alone.
Is it me, or is ChatGPT getting worse as it apparently learns more?
Before you consume this post, read the instructions. This is not a political post. It's a messaging post, using a political image to illustrate. This is a monster poster. Full of energy and confidence, and I want one (I'm not 100% sure it's real)
Web copy tip of the day: "About Us" is not about us. It's about them.

You can't persuade people. You can remind people who are already persuaded. If you’re marketing strategy's about trying to persuade people, then you’re destined for No Man’s land. There are no customers in No Man’s Land. Just failed founders waiting tables, and big therapy bills.

Someone in marketing thinks this opt-in pop up is a conversion gotcha. Everyone else thinks it totally wanky.

@theclearhead I don't remember who said it, but it's true "You don't pick your niche, your niche picks you"
@theclearhead In that case we’re not talking about the same wave.
@theclearhead It must've lacked the X factor.
Love this. Peak British
Now that’s a beautiful slice of Britain and what a bloody delivery 😊
It's a crime that no wine spa hotel has ever copied Ian Dury and the Blockheads "The juice of a carrot, the smile of a parrot, a little drop of claret" @VikkiRossWrites
"No Carbs Before Marbs" wasn't an advertising line but it really went viral (caught on, got into the language), people picked it up as a fun thing to repeat. That's the sort of line we should be writing, imo
Many people don’t know the first thing about building their own brand, let alone a strong one. Hiring someone to help you with things like strategy, messaging, and identity design isn’t a ‘trick’ — it may also save months (or years) of guesswork and flip-flopping.
Don't pay someone else to build your brand for you. *Your* audience will smell this trick from afar. Yes, building your brand is hard. But, the rewards are high. Very high. Building a strong brand for yourself is a game you never lose.
@theclearhead Agree with this - also too many people are seeing someone doing well on a platform like LinkedIn and then think they need to copy that person's approach in "personal branding" which of course won't necessarily suit them - this is also exacerbated by those selling bad advice.
@theclearhead Or who is telling theirs to you. Happy Monday, Peter.
Today has reminded me why I used to take Mondays off 🥲
Don’t know who needs to hear this but It’s ok to start again if things aren’t working You can always reposition your business You can always change your brand message You can always find a suitable profitable niche Your business is a journey not a destination Need help…
AI feels like the Internet in the 90s. It's completely useless and overrated if you don't need it. It's completely magical and underrated if you need it. Arguments happen between these two groups, which represent a good percentage of the population.
