Kevin O'LearyIf you are a #watchonista like me the raging debate is what watch to wear to the #superbowl this weekend. I'm going off piste and wearing a #VacheronConstantin Historiques American 1921. The origins of this watch go back to 1921, when Vacheron Constantin created a limited series of watches just for American motorists. The idea was to create a watch optimized for reading with your hands on the steering wheel, so the dial was rotated to place it at the correct angle for easy viewing. The high noon numeral "12" is actually 30% off axis and it freaks people out when the see it. This is a new and welcomed addition to my collection modified by the good people at HODINKEE, Inc. with a custom red band so I'm giving it some love.

Chantel SoumisJust got out of a Zoom session with Matthew McConaughey and I'm totally nerding out but also in complete shock at how humble, wise, and compassionate you can be when you are rooted in VALUES aligned with your personal brand. He said "THAT'S when you get to the honey hole" about three times so that basically attests to the amazing value we got out of this 😂 This year at Stardust Creative we are focusing heavily on how to build a strong personal brand using reverse engineering of what is taught in the entertainment industry as well as what actors go through to stay on brand throughout various roles and experiences. He shared his journey of the need to unbrand in order to rebrand in his career to shift into different roles, turning from a "shirtless RomCom star into an accomplished actor." Sooooo freaking dope. Life advice from McConaughey: 💚 Fill up your bank account AND your soul account. 💚 Pledge to be competent at your values. 💚 May you keep hittin' more green lights on your road of life! For more life lessons, pick up his book Greenlights from your local bookstore. Who is your favorite actor and why? ⬇ #personalbranding #culture #motivation …see more

Quentin Michael AllumsI decline most brand deals. I went live on Instagram last night and I was asked “should you accept every brand deal that comes your way.” The simple answer is no. Here’s why I don’t accept everything: - You should spend more time building your brand than building someone else’s. Accepting everything will make you money quickly in the short term, but limit success in the long term. - Not every brand is aligned with mine or my company’s. I have spent years building relationships and if I start promoting things I don’t believe in (or promoting too much) I’ll lose credibility & trust quickly. It takes years to build trust and one wrong action to lose it. - It has to be something I genuinely like and think my community will like as well. Because if I don’t believe in it then 1). I can’t sell it. And 2). my community will not believe in it either. Protect your brand. Only rep the products you believe in. #justQ 🖤 …see more

Tai T.At TEDxBerkeley, I described personal branding as multi-dimensional. It is beyond just your profession. I am beyond just a marketer. I am a mentor, teacher, immigrant, writer, foodie, and the list goes on. A personal brand starts with you as a person. It is the interconnected web of your interests, passions, and personalities. I illustrated this point with a pinwheel of emojis to humanize the designing of a personal brand (aka it doesn't have to feel rigid or superficial). My talk will be live soon on the official TEDx YouTube channel and I'll be sharing it with you! The seven emojis that define my personal brand? �������� (family), ����(techie), ���� (foodie), �� (thoughtful), �� (nerdy), ��♂️(initiative), �� (goofy) What emoji(s) best describe you as a professional, but also a person?

Quentin Michael AllumsI've never really talked about this.. But the most impactful purchase I've ever made was a $40 hat on sale. It changed my life. It was one of the first purchases I made after struggling for so long trying to build my first two businesses. I wanted to be instantly recognizable and I wanted something to contribute to the Misfits brand/narrative that I was building. It's become my brand anchor. The most iconic one for me. And it sends a message about what kind of person I am before I even open my mouth. I used to think that how I dressed didn't matter. But even "not caring" sends a message. So ask yourself who do you want to be? What message do you want to send? And lastly, what message are you sending? And then make sure those things are aligned.

Kevin O'LearyI love wine. Making money in the wine business is another story. Years ago, my launch strategy for #OlearyFineWines was to avoid the ancient three-tiered distribution retail system and sell direct to my fan base in 41 states. Everybody knows I hate $h&t wine and anything with my name on it has to be spectacular because my family are bigger wine snobs that I am. I blend my offerings for them. If my wife Linda likes my Chardonnay I know I'll sell millions. Same for my daughter Savannah, if she does not like my Cabernet Sauvignon I don't ship it. To pull it off I needed a partner that would let me apply my wine making skills but at the same time could ship millions of individual cases direct to consumers. Pat Roney said he could do it, we shook hands years ago and the rest is history! Here is his story. https://lnkd.in/ednJPPX …see more

Something most people don't know about me is that one of my major goals is to own/invest in an eSports organization. A company that is crushing the storytelling game right now is Blizzard Entertainment , more specifically with their game Overwatch. - Every character that they roll out has an incredible backstory. - Relatable design. - Comics, shorts, etc. - And each character contributes to the overarching story. That's something that we've taken massive inspiration from as we grow our company as well. Everyone within our company has and shares their story. Each of us have our own communities. And so on.

Quentin Michael AllumsI’m no longer editing my videos — which is incredibly hard for me. 🥺 But here’s the thing: 1). I’m an entrepreneur first & a content creator second. My business is my priority. Outsourcing this part allows me to still create and focus on my business. 2). I need to lean into my strengths, which is the messaging. The story. And by doing that I can empower someone else by allowing them to lean into theirs. Video editing. 3). Allowing others to edit for me, ensures that I have ultimate clarity around my brand. Because everything created still has to feel like me. Just something to think about if you’re a creator building a business. Do you edit your own content or do you outsource? And why?

Quentin Michael AllumsSpeaking at INBOUND! ✅ I was stopped maybe a little under 20 times over the weekend to take photos. Because they recognized my hat and saw my stuff on LinkedIn. And on the first day I turned to Israel and said, “this hat is the best decision I ever made.” And then after my session a woman stood up during Q&A and said this: I sent you a connection request after watching a few of your things. And you responded and asked me how I was doing & what I was working on. And we talked for a while. And that’s what matters to me. I had put you on a pedestal and you brought yourself down to my level. Thank you. That meant the world to me. I’ve heard John Henry & Gary Vaynerchuk talk about scaling the unscalable. And about a year ago I was studying Taylor Swift’s come up and there is one commonality in all of that. They spend a ridiculous amount of time engaging with their community.

Quentin Michael Allums“People only watch your videos because you wear a hat.” ✋🏽😮 Before I did anything in “business” I was a singer-songwriter. I had a “brand”. People knew: - What I looked like. - What I sounded like. - etc. I approached it the same way as an entrepreneur. And while that statement up top is crazy, there is some truth to that. If there was a line graph that mapped out the trajectory of my life — there would be an upward spike when I purchased my hat. Because it helped me stand out. Made me instantaneously recognizable.

James AltucherEVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS BEING AMPED BY STANDUP COMEDY TONIGHT: Thursday NYC. COME ENJOY MY SHOW. I'm doing standup comedy at the 8pm show of StandupNY on 78th and Broadway. Great lineup of pro comics and..me. Definitely get reservations at standupny.com or get there early so you can get in. If you let me know in time I can try to comp you in. I will say (and this is why I put this on LinkedIn) what I am learning from the six months I've been going up 2-3x per week has far exceeded what I feel I learned from starting and selling businesses. That is HARD. But this is even more difficult I find. One of these days I will summarize. But in the meantime, come see me tonight! And below is an image of me, last night, taking a selfie while on stage with the audience in the background in the middle of my set. …see more

Amy BlaschkaToday is my birthday 🎂 , and I’m thinking about gifts, though not the ones you might imagine. 🎁 When I work with leaders on crafting their career stories, I’m always searching for the essence of who they are. I'm a naturally curious person, so I'm fascinated to learn what makes people tick. I find the spark in each person and shine a spotlight 🔦 on it so that others are drawn—like me—to their presence. ✨ And over and over again, I find that people don’t appreciate or acknowledge their inherent gifts.🤦🏼♀️ You know that thing that comes so naturally to you? That thing that you take for granted because you assume others can do it too? They can’t.❌ We undervalue our gifts because we don’t see them as gifts at all. We mistakenly believe them to be mundane, unimportant and run-of-the-mill, and that they come easy to everyone else.🙄 They don’t.❌ Today, I’d like you to appreciate your gifts. Embracing them and putting them to their highest and best use is the greatest gift you can give to the world—and yourself.✅ What are YOUR gifts? 💁🏼♀️ Please share them in the comments below. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 #career #talent #gifts …see more

Chantel SoumisYep. This is about you. Tip 9 of 20 in building a personal brand that actually WORKS which is ALL ABOUT YOU ALL! After all, you can't build a community without people. Amiriiiiight? An easy way to grow your digital reputation and online influence is to get together with like-minded professionals that focus on similar industries and collaborate! Dip into their community by offering co-authored articles/blogs or jumping on a podcast interview. Even speaking at a virtual event completely free of charge can prove beneficial for growing an audience. 👉PRO TIP: Build a list of 21 social media power users and follow them. Engage in their content frequently for two weeks and then reach out to them for an introduction. ⚡You may be surprised by what types of opportunities await when you collaborate! ⚡ So let me ask… are YOU ready to collaborate?!

Quentin Michael AllumsIt still blows my mind that people pay me to speak on stages. Especially before I really understood the value that I brought. If I can do it, there is literally no reason why YOU shouldn't be speaking (if you want to be). And for aspiring speakers: ✅ I did a TEDx talk the first year I started speaking. I’m competitive and don’t like to be bad at things, so I did as many gigs as I could to improve. ✅ You are a business. Businesses evolve. So should you. ✅ It’s kind of like hiring a videographer. They’re not just paying for the equipment. They’re also paying for the years of work, knowledge, etc. ✅ It’s easier to speak if you have something to speak about. People wanted to talk to me about my business success. So I did. What lessons would you add? #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 #business #entrepreneurship …see more

Quentin Michael AllumsI've been using the LinkedIn Newsletter beta feature. 👇 It's been a game changer. The reach is nowhere near my videos, but the results have been amazing: ✅ A large chunk of my 2020 speaking schedule is booked out. ✅ Increased numbers in our social media groups. ✅ I was able to launch my new solo #esports podcast and gain extra exposure there. ✅ Increase of follower growth. ✅ Leads for my company. My newsletter [Dear Strange People] is a series where I dive into the decisions I'm making from a personal branding, community building, and business perspective. But here is what I'm loving most: It is giving me space to be more creative with videos, because I can focus more on thought leadership in my articles. In a world where it's hard NOT to just show the highlight reel. If you can find a way to be real and dive deeper, you're more than likely going to have better results.

Chantel SoumisI had a recent conversation on a podcast to which the host asked me, "how did you grow from 30k to 80k followers this year? What's your secret so I can grow, too!" Well, it's no secret, but rather a combination of things... Most importantly, I don't pretend to be anyone or anything else... because people can see right through the facade if you are playing one. This also means mastering your brand, voice, and values and create VIDEO content! Video is exceptionally strong and builds so much trust with strangers - but how do you do it RIGHT?! Well, don't FORCE it! Especially don't create content just to get numbers. Quantity doesn't always equal quality. I strike when the inspiration hits with batch creation! I share what I mean in this video in order to make more time for the important things in life... like health and wellness, adventures, and the projects that make all the magic happen! How do you create content? Do you schedule it or post when the inspiration hits? Who are your favorite creators and why are they your favorite?! Is it because of authenticity? A strong brand?

Chantel SoumisI admit I have sales-phobia! BUT as a marketer, it is IMPERATIVE that I understand sales as thoroughly as possible in order to build the strongest marketing strategy possible. I always HATED sales. The selling side AND the buying side. The car dealership makes me break out into nervous hives and my stomach always flips going into T-Mobile. Being approached by friends in network marketing?! FORGET IT. I ghost like the worst friend ever. 👻 It was SO different as a girl scout selling sweet treats. 🍪 So I've been studying sales to kill this fear, understand the sales process, and amplify results. I'm finding that ABOVE ALL, it's critical to create an approachable, warm relationship before anything else. Here's a part of what I've been finding! I was specifically surprised to understand the best day of the week and time of day for correspondence... What do you think? What's one sales tip that changed the game for you?!

Chantel SoumisWant to attract incredible people and opportunities? Put the work in! Here's how 👇 Engagement is an important buzzword that continues to lose its magic in the world of social media growth and building thought influence... But in order to attract the right people, You need to get out there and FIND them! See a content creator or thought influencer and want to get on their radar? Prove that you are their biggest fan by commenting and actively engaging with them on their content and with their fellow "fans" in the comment section. By going out and finding the people you want to attract, half of the job is already done. There are many opinions about how much focus you should put into your engagement strategy, I suggest 75% of your time on social media should be spent on OTHER creator's content. Not only do you meet incredible people - You learn a lot of new info, too! Def a win-win. So go on and give it a whirl and take your personal brand and thought influence to the next level! #leadership #sales #chantelshares …see more

Not everyone is going to like you. That's the truth of the world. But that doesn't mean you should dull your flavors down. Those that love you will be hooked. When building your personal brand, Think about whom you SERVE. What does the perfect client look like to you? Which flavors will attract them? So do you dare to be that blue moon ice cream with rainbow sprinkles? I took that double-dog dare and turned it into a career.

Carson TateHow often do you find yourself experiencing life through your phone instead of actually experiencing the world around you? I get it. Life is busy, and staying connected is often a professional necessity and a personal pleasure. But what happens when we cross the line and more of our time and energy is spent watching life instead of living it? I think we pay a high price – a spirit-draining, soul-crushing price.

Amy BlaschkaAcceptance. It’s what so many of us yearn for. From the playground to the workplace, we spend our whole lives trying to fit in, whether consciously or unconsciously. And it’s no wonder: we’re wired to belong. We want others to like us. Rather than risk rejection for being different, it’s safer to blend in. But in a professional sense, that can be a big mistake. When you try to be all things to all people, you end up being a non-compelling, watered-down version to everyone. Your offering becomes a commodity. But what if you stopped trying to fit in, and instead, focused on standing out? It starts with telling your story. But to do so, you’ll need to identify and articulate your common thread, that theme that weaves together your personal and professional experiences to tell your unique story. Do you know yours? It’s worth considering because once you have your story, it changes everything, including how others perceive, pay, and promote you. When you embrace and highlight what makes you different and how your uniqueness adds value and helps people, you shine. And that light will attract others to you for all the right reasons. #personalbranding #career #careerstory …see more

You need to know what separates you from others, what resonates with the community that you're building, and you need to be able to effectively communicate your story. Just something to think about. #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 …see more

James AltucherMY INTERVIEW WITH Farnoosh Torabi: (I FLIP THE MIC!) Who better to interview me than the person who has been interviewing me for almost a dozen years. “I came prepared,” she told me. Because she wanted to find out what you don’t see on Google… Here’s what we talked about: -The rise of entrepreneurship and the rise of “gurus.” -Mentorship and finding your inner circle -She asked me: “If you couldn’t pass on any money to your kids and all you could pass on was investment strategies, rules, a portfolio, what would it be?” -Why I don't vote -The time I met #BernieMadoff - AND the “choose yourself” method for getting into TV... http://apple.co/1ewcX8D …see more

String NguyenDo you like my new laptop? It's a Lenovo Yoga C940. It's been great for creating content on the go. I've also some big news, I'm a brand ambassador for Lenovo ANZ. One of my big goals is to build a worldwide brand and collaborating with world-class brands. Lenovo fits the bill as they are a global technology brand. I've using this laptop to do a lot of my startup work, including livestreaming, video editing and a lot of content creation. It's great for remote work. PS, I showed my mum photos and videos, she's like "Are you famous now?" haha 5 years ago, she told me to get a real job. Now she understands just a little of what I do. #smartertechnologyforall #stringtheory on #tech #brand …see more
