Why Social Entrepreneurs Need a Personal Brand

by | Jan 22, 2020 | Marketing, Social Impact

If we’re not watching you, we’re watching someone else.

The internet has made it possible for people to build a following, their own personal brand based around their experience, their personality, and their knowledge.

This can be done from within a company, or as a standalone brand. Think Gary Vaynerchuk in the business world, Bill Gates in philanthropy and change, and Dwayne Johnson in entertainment.

Now it’s your turn.

Social entrepreneurs need to put themselves out there and share their perspective in a public way. We need you to build a personal brand to inspire and teach the next wave of entrepreneurs, entertainers, and leaders about true value and impact.

The nice side effect? Increased awareness, exposure, and more customers or donors supporting your cause.

It’s a win win for everyone, and all it takes is for you to start writing, start a podcast, record videos, and share it with the world.

It’s not a one-off campaign. It’s a way of consciously working publicly in the world.

You can literally start today. No excuses.

Rise With Randomness

In the randomness we writhe And yet chaos breeds a time That we cannot merely run from But can actually build our home on. When we run from disorder We forget the chance to be the sorter, To be the one who surfs with the waves Instead of the drown one, we can save....
