@neilpatel: If you are a business or provide services of any kind, you need to either work with brands or create a strong personal brand for yourself. But Neil, why? Three reasons: 👉🏼 Trust. Google and other search engines favor brands because they are less likely to throw around misinformation (looks bad for the brand). 👉🏼 Awareness. A strong personal brand touts strong brand awareness. Think Elon Musk, Andrew Tate, and Mr. Beast - all have businesses and side hustles that are successful due to a strong personal brand. Likewise, working with well-established brands gives your service/business increased visibility. 👉🏼 Customer loyalty. Get audiences in love with your personal brand, and they will loyally buy and promote anything you put on the market (so long as it is not terrible) Elon has put out tequila and perfume and sold out on both easily. Why? He's got a strong personal brand. Working with well-established brands gives your business credibility and can help you build more customer loyalty for your services. Which do you prefer? Personal branding or working with brands? #digitalpreneur #personalbranding #marketingtips101 #businessbranding #onlinebusinesstips #onlinebusinessideas
