1 What is your
brand?

Your brand is you company’s reputation.


It is the impression, or perception of a
business, based on their proven expertise,
within a particular niche (eg. you’re a
Financial Planner for Female Entrepeneurs
in Washinton, or you’re a maverick law
firm who only deals with high-profile class-
action lawsuits in Florida).

A true brand revolves around what other


people say about your business.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 6


1 What is your
brand?

Here are a
few examples
of successful
brands
that we’ve
developed: Normand PLLC. Branding for a maverick law-firm in Florida
that specializes in high-profile class-action lawsuits

1 What is your
brand?

A strong brand is:

• Credible
• Personable
• Memorable
• Trustworthy

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 8


1 What is your
brand?

Benefits of having a
strong brand:

• Higher recognition in your industry


• People rely on your firm as the experts.
• You will be able to charge a premium
• Helps you stand out from your
competition.
• Leads to more opportunities

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 9


2 Building your
brand

In order to build a strong brand, you have to


ask yourself who you are, what kind of clients
do you serve, and why should they care to do
business with you.

You need to find yourself a niche. Because


people don’t like working with generalists.
They only like working with specialists who
have a deep expertise in what they do.

So one of the first steps to building your


personal brand, is to put a stake in the ground
and identify your unique niche that only you
can own.
How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 10
2 Building your
brand

What is
your niche?
In order to be seen as an expert,
you need to find your niche.
Think of a niche as a business’
specialty or what you’re best
known for offering. By focusing
on a specific market, product,
or service you are able to really
hone in on finding quality
clients.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 11


2 Building your
brand

How to find your niche?


A niche is a narrow focus within an area of interest.
This means you have to go deeper to find a niche that is perfect for you.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 12


2 Building your
brand

Your target
audience
Every brand must have an
audience. Without an audience,
you have no one to make an offer
to, or make an impact on.

The target audience will allow


your brand to deliver targeted
solutions to them and build a
strong community.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 13


2 Building your
brand

Finding your audience:


If you could only attract a maximum of
10,000 followers in your entire life, who
would they be?

Describe them by answering the following questions:

WHAT DO THEY CALL THEMSELVES?


WHAT IS THEIR DEMOGRAPHIC?
(Age / Sex / Marital Status / Where They’re
Located / Profession / Income Level)
WHAT IS THEIR PSYCHOGRAPHIC?
(What have they experienced?)
EXAMPLE:

• Female Entrpreneurs (income: $200K+)


• Living in the Washington
• 35-65 years old (single)
• May have gone through divorce / widow /
trauma
WHAT DO THEY WANT?

EXAMPLE:

• They want to be able to control their


finances, while managing their business
& family life.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 14


2 Building your
brand

Finding your audience:

WHY DO THEY WANT THAT?


EXAMPLE:

• So that they don’t go into debt


• They can make good financial decisions
that will grow their business, provide for
their families, and retire debt-free.

WHAT DO THEY CURRENTLY BELIEVE? EXAMPLE:

• They think having more money will solve


all their problems (it won’t).
• They are scared when it comes to
making money-related decisions (they
don’t have to be).

WHAT ARE THEIR BIGGEST CHALLENGES


/ PROBLEMS? EXAMPLE:

• COVID has disrupted their business.


They don’t know how they’re going to
pay the bills.
• How are they going to save up enough
money to retire?

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 15


2 Building your
brand

Finding your audience:

WHERE DO THEY WANT TO GO?


EXAMPLE:

• They want to be able to get out of debt


• They want to be able to build wealth so
they they can provide for their families,
and retire to a comfortable life.

HOW CAN YOU HELP THEM GET THERE? EXAMPLE:

• Provide them with educational content,


courses and 1-on-1 coaching so they can
get out of debt, build wealth, and live
their best life!

Now that you know who you are going after,


let’s craft your positioning statement.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 16


2 Building your
brand

What is a Positioning
Statement?
A Positioning Statement is a brief description that defines:
+ what your busines does
+ who it does it for
+ the unique way that it does it to generate a particular result.

What is the purpose of a


Positioning Statement?
In one word: “clarity”.

+ Clarity internally (to your team)


+ Clarity externally (to your prospective clients)

Your positioning guides every decision within your business, and


how your brand is perceived in the marketplace.

3 Create your
visual brand
Now that you have a clear idea of who
your customers are, as well as your
unique positioning .. how is that going to
tranlate into visual branding?

A lot can be communicated very simply,


and that is the great art of graphic design.

Remember, when you are creating your


visual brand, always keep in mind who
your target audience is.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 22


3STEP 1:
Create your visual
brand

Figure out your brand’s personality


(Every brand has a personality that dictates how it
should look, act, and sound like. This makes you more
relatable on a human level to your prospective clients.)

There are 12 personalities


(we call them ‘Archetypes’)

Your brand may have a


combination of archetypes.
Find out your
= + brand’s personality.
Take the brand
personality quiz:

(type or click the above link).

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 23


3STEP 2:
Create your visual
brand

Figure out your customer’s personality


(Certain personalities are drawn to certain brands.
What customer archetype is drawn to your brand?)

CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:

Sarah Carlson is a
Financial Advisor.
Her target audience are
women entrpreneurs
between the ages of 35 to
65. They are well seasoned,
independent, and are
seeking advice & wisdom
on generating wealth so
that they could retire
comfortably.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 24


3STEP 3:
Create your visual
brand

Put together a mood-board that suits your


brand’s personality.

A mood-board sets the tone for your visual identity.


It’s a collection of visual assets - whether it’s Colors,
images, text, photos, or any visual inspiration. It
encompasses who you are as a brand and how you want
to portray yourself to the world visually.
EXAMPLES OF 3 MOODBOARDS FOR:

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 25


3STEP 3:
Create your visual
brand

Decide on a moodboard direction that appeals


to both you as well as your customers.

CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:

Sarah Carlson personal


brand needs to be seen
as a source of wisdom.

The target audience is


sophisticated & elegant, and
therefore the colors, and
fonts and photography we
chose communicated the
attributes of pure, strong,
elegant, classic, & minimal.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 26


3STEP 3:
Create your visual
brand

Create your brand identity (logo, typeface


& color palette) based on the moodboard
you put together.

CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:

These were the 3 brand


identity concepts we
came up with for Sarah
Carlson’s brand.

How To Brand & Sell Your Expertise | by Denny Kurien Page | 27


3STEP 4:
Create your visual
brand

Finalize your brand, and roll it across


all your marketing channels.

CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:

Concept 1 was the final brand identity that was approved for Love Money Journal. The blue resonated
with Sarah because she was a graduate of Yale University (Yale’s colors). The serif font brought sophistication &
elegance, while the hand-written gold signature typeface for ‘Sarah Carlson’ made it personable & approachable.

strategy
To get more visibility, you need to get in the
public eye.

One of the ways to do this, is to use the


right hashtags for every post you create. In
Instagram, you are allowed a maximum of 30
hashtags.

In this module, I iwill explain how to find the


right hashtags to use in your post.

How to find the right hashtags


for your post.

CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:

This is an examples of
a post we created for
Sarah Carlson.
She provides financial
advice to female
entrpreneurs who might be
going through separation.

To target the right audience, you need to use 30 relevant hashtags within your niche.
For instagram accounts starting out (like Sarah’s) we recommend using 20 small
hashtags (10K to 300K posts), and 10 medium hashtags (301K to 1M posts). Here’s how
to find the right hashtags:

7 Create your
visibility strategy

Use Instagram Stories


to Drive Engagement
CASE-STUDY EXAMPLE:
Instagram stories only last for 24 hours, so this is
the perfect outlet for off-the-cuff to-camera video
content with minimal post production. This is great
for starting conversations, humanizing your brand,
getting real-time feedback straight from your target
audience, and promoting the instagram posts that
you’ve already created.

We suggest posting instagram stories in the following format:


Step 1: Hook. Step 2: Present your post. Step 3: Put your poll / question
Grab attention by creating a 60s video Address & solve the problem Get real-time feedback from your
on the topic you are about to post. audience on the topic of your post

(GOAL: DRIVE AWARENESS


(GOAL: get real-time feedback
(GOAL: HUMANIZE OF YOUR INSTAGRAM
from your audience and
YOUR BRAND) CONTENT) start a conversation)

7 Create your
visibility strategy

Here are ways to get more


visibility in what you do:

• Interviews & Public Relations


• Guest Blogging
• Public Speaking
• Partnerships & Collaborations

The more visibility activities


you do, the better.

The key here is to get exposure


through others’ existing
audiences.

Client’s we’ve helped:
“I previously tried to work with local branding consulting firms,
but found their processes to be immature. There was also a lack
