Key Takeaways:

“Everybody already has a brand. The key is whether they understand what that is, and then how they best communicate that.” - Paul Copcutt

“Everything that you do, every interaction, every delivery, every time somebody comes across you or talks about you, you want them to think that thing, that brand. That's what you want to be perceived.” - Paul Copcutt

“If the plan is to run a company to be successful, but not leave a legacy, then brand You. If it's something that you're looking that's going to be bigger than you, or it's going to be passed down to family, then branding a company name might make more sense.” - Paul Copcutt

“If one is kind of reluctant to shout from the rooftops about their personal brand on LinkedIn, as it relates to a side business, what you might do is choose to set up a company page. There, sell real estate, investment, income, whatever it is, and then promote and add value and try to attract people.” - Paul Copcutt

“What are they? Who are they? What do they do? What's the impact that they have? And who they do it for? And why? Why should those people care? So clarity of message is first and foremost.” - Paul Copcutt

“Consistency, delivering on that message, so the business card, the email, letterhead, website -- those are all tools to get that message out there. But if you're not clear about what the message is, and you're not consistent, all the great websites in the world, the best looking business cards are not going to be worth anything.” - Paul Copcutt

“Don't try and do it all. When it comes to a brand, just pick one or two things and start with that. Don't get overwhelmed by, ‘I've got to have everything in place.’ Keep it simple. And just work at it consistently.” - Paul Copcutt
