BRANDING QUOTES

You see, I mistakenly thought that branding was all about your website or the company you promote. I was doing all the right things marketing wise, but I couldn't build my list or get sales.

Sound familiar?

You see, home business owners are being taught that EVERYONE is your prospect. This creates such noise in the marketplace, whether it's on social media or email that your prospects can't find you.

My business changed when I finally learned from my mentors that the number one asset in my business was ME and developing MY BRAND.

Make sure you share this with your team.

“Building a profitable personal brand online is not a sprint, and something that happens over night. Don’t aim for perfection early on. Instead allow your brand to evolve naturally over time and focus on providing massive value and over deliver to your target audience. Then you will get more clear over your message and brand as well. Always remember that!” – Navid Moazzez (Yes, moi!)

“All of us need to understand the importance of branding. We are CEOs of our own companies: Me Inc. To be in business today, our most important job is to be head marketer for the brand called You.” – Tom Peters in Fast Company

“Branding demands commitment; commitment to continual re-invention; striking chords with people to stir their emotions; and commitment to imagination. It is easy to be cynical about such things, much harder to be successful.” – Sir Richard Branson

Your brand is your best home business. Why?

Companies come and go like a fart in the wind. When you've built a brand around how you serve the marketplace with your skills and talents, you'll never run out of people to talk to and you will build customer loyalty to YOU, not the company you promote.“Your personal brand is what people say about you when you are not in the room – remember that. And more importantly, let’s discover why!” – Chris Ducker

“It’s important to build a personal brand because it’s the only thing you’re going to have.Your reputation online, and in the new business world is pretty much the game, so you’ve got to be a good person. You can’t hide anything, and more importantly, you’ve got to be out there at some level.” – Gary Vaynerchuk

“If you can’t find your own center and love for yourself, nothing else works.” –Chris Brogan

“If I lost control of the business I’d lose myself–or at least the ability to be myself. Owning myself is a way to be myself.” –Oprah Winfrey

“Truth is a point of view, but authenticity can’t be faked.” – Peter Gruber

“Even individuals need to develop a brand for themselves …. Whatever your area of expertise, you can take steps to make people think of YOU when they think of your field.” – Accelepoint Webzine

“To find yourself, think for yourself.” – Socrates

“Your brand is a gateway to your true work. You know you are here to do something – to create something or help others in some way. The question is, how can you set up your life and work so that you can do it? The answer lies in your brand. When you create a compelling brand you attract people who want the promise of your brand – which you deliver.” – Dave Buck
