H e y G e n i u s !
With that said, it’s important to note that the Brand Gravity
System guide isn’t just about logos, fonts and colors. Too
many entrepreneurs assume that branding stops after
creating the right ‘look’.
Once you’ve figured out the basics of your brand (the look, the
feel, the colors, the fonts...etc.) it’s time to BE your brand. This
guide is about teaching you how to build a content strategy in
a powerful and sustainable way.

What To Do
If You’re A Beginner
I have a lot of great tools for entrepreneurs who are just starting to grow
their brands. Your core goals right now are to figure out who you are
(what I call formulating your ‘innate advantage’), and getting clarity
around who you serve, and how you serve them.

This Formula Will Change
The Way You Do Business.
Tracking down sales person-by-person is exhausting. Having to
constantly be on top of outbound sales DM’s, emails, and phone
calls with a small team or no team at all is no small task.
I’ve found that the reason most entrepreneurs aren’t seeing the
financial gain and brand expansion they’d like to see is because
their systems just aren’t sustainable.

THIS formula is the way to generate leads and sales
consistently without spending all your time doing it.

Brand Gravity?
/NOUN/
Brand Gravity
Brand Gravity is the process of attracting
your ideal audience into your orbit - and then
converting them into customers.
WHY?
K AY E P U T N A M . C O M / B R A N D G R AV I T Y 10
The Brand
GravitySystem
The Brand Gravity System is a 3-Stage Content
and Conversion System that every brand needs
to consistently attract leads and sales.
H E R E ’ S T H E B R A N D G R AV I T Y SYST E M :
The key here is that you actually need a system for each of
the three phases outlined in the equation. If one system is
absent or not effective, you’ll find that your business growth,
impact, and income will start to become stagnant.
Many of the concepts in this chapter will be familiar to you. But how to get them
all to merge and work together without becoming overwhelmed? That will be an
eye-opener for you - and we’ll cover it next.
K AY E P U T N A M . C O M / B R A N D G R AV I T Y 11
This is the game-changing diagram that shows how the
Brand Gravity System actually works.
There are three phases in this system and it’s built to amplify your income
and your impact. If you look at the above diagram, from left to right, you’ll
see the phase names and the corresponding metric or goal.
As you read more about each phase, you’re no doubt going to see some of the strategies you’re
already doing. You may even see some areas you’re weak or strong in. Take note of those.
Notes
Phase 1: Attract
Phase 1 is how you attract new audience members into your orbit.
Metric:
The defining metric that we’re looking at for the third phase is Audience. (Or if we
want to use marketing jargon, we’re looking for Reach. AKA the number of eyeballs
that see our brand.) Namely, getting in front of an audience that could potentially be
interested in buying our offers in the future. An audience that we can bring into our
ecosystems and nurture.
Tools:
Here are some ways that you use to grow and attract new audience members
(note: these are listed in order of speed of effect):
+ S E O ( S L O W E S T, F R E E )
+ DISCOVERY ON SOCIAL MEDIA
+ OPA (OTHER PEOPLE’S AUDIENCES)
+ PRESS / PR
+ A D S ( FA S T E S T, R E Q U I R E S B U D G E T )
If you are utilizing social media (or any platform that you don’t ‘own’) to attract
audience members (ex. Instagram, Facebook, Youtube etc.), you’ll want to create
CTA’s in your content that entice them to give you their email address in exchange for
upgraded content. This ensures you’re not building your brand on borrowed ground.

Phase 2: Nurture
Phase 2 is where the magic happens. This is where you ‘be’ your
brand. After someone 'opts in' to your brand in some way (by signing
up for your email, following you on social, or subscribing) we need to
deepen the relationship with them. This is a crucial process for
building trust and increasing sales.
Metric:
The defining metric that we’re looking at for the second
phase is Leads. One of the key benefits of this phase is
that it’s designed to build trust. The more your audience
trusts your brand, the less time you actually have to
spend *selling* to them.
Tools:
Here are some ways that you can nurture your audience
and indoctrinate them into your brand:
+ EMAIL MARKETING
+ SOCIAL MEDIA
+ BLOGGING
+ PODCASTING
+ VIDEOS

SOCIAL MEDIA CAN BE A TIME SUCK
(NO SURPRISE HERE!)
Spend time on social media with purpose. It’s important for you to reserve your brain
power and energy for business activities that are within your genius zone.

A WAY YO U C A N S U S TA I N
Nurturing your audience needs to be done in a way that is sustainable for you..
Make it as simple as possible. Being active on all platforms without a team and no
plan is really hard. So, focus your energy on the platforms that best suit your business -
and that you enjoy. What this might look like:

Phase 3: Serve
This phase is all about making sales and serving your customers.
Metric:
In this final phase the metric that we’re looking at is Sales. Everything that is created in
this phase, from content to landing pages, needs to lead to a CTA (call-to-action)
that attracts your future client or customer to take the next step with you.
Tools:
Here are some ways that you can introduce your offers and sell your products,
coaching, services, and more to your customers and clients:
These are the easiest methods of conversion for newer entrepreneurs. The barrier to
entry is lower, as nothing needs to be prepared ahead of time. However, these are the
most time-consuming because they directly require your time.
SALES PAGES
Long form sales pages are great for converting customers from ads or email
funnels. They can work for you in your sleep and sell your lower-cost products
around the clock. They require a moderately sophisticated front-end setup, and
some technology know-how.
WEBINAR SALES
The most complicated of the bunch, but works wonders for selling higher-priced
coaching, or teaching. They require a more complex software setup but can generate
a lot of new business in a short amount of time if implemented properly.
PROPOSALS
Often used for people who sell services, or provide consulting. Proposals are a
great way to throw your hat in the ring and show your expertise to potential clients.
They require an upfront time investment and a longer sales process, but they yield
high returns and can create retainer clients for entrepreneurs.

Now it’s time to follow the Brand Gravity System to create and publish
your content. Figure out your weekly rhythm and how you’ll share and
promote consistently using your chosen tools.
But to give you a jumpstart I’ve compiled a few keys to consistency that
make content production easier and more effective.
Use Templates!
Don't reinvent the wheel every day (unless, maybe, you're a designer and this
is how you walk your talk.) Leverage templates for consistency and speed.

Taking your business to the next level and scaling your offers and services
is a very specific process. And the 3-phase system that I’ve just introduced
you is the way to explode your income, audience and impact.
I’ve already given you the outline you need to be successful using this
system right in this guide. You can implement this sytem and you’ll find
success. I know, because I’ve done it. The only difference is that I didn’t
have anyone to help guide me through the process... and it was hard
going at it alone, piecing everything together through trial and error.

I created a 2-hour interactive workshop to help entrepreneurs like you to
define your own 6-month Brand Gravity strategy for your brand, so you are
attracting leads and sales consistently.
Because after you figure out what your brand is, it’s time to focus on BEING
your brand in the market.
I want to help you set your winning strategy by giving you access to all the
tools and systems I use. I’ll show you everything I did to create a content,
lead & sales generation system so that you can grow your income, audience,
and impact. If you’re ready for your brand to “grow up” and create the
results you know it can, I invite you to the Clarity to Scale workshop.
