Finding Your Unique Voice and Style for Personal Branding
Manage episode 490788535 series 3436922
We’re putting the spotlight on building your personal brand—particularly for entrepreneurs, podcasters, and anyone eager to make their mark.
Welcome to another episode of The Circle Sessions! I’m Brett Johnson from Circle 270 Media Podcast Consultants, and this week I’m joined by Yasmine Robles and Izzy Dadosky of Rebel Marketing.
This conversation is packed with practical insights. We kick things off by defining your unique value proposition (UVP)—that is, what makes you stand out and the special way you solve problems for your audience. We agree that your UVP can and probably should evolve as you grow, learn, and gain feedback from your community.
Izzy shares how aligning your brand voice with your true personality creates authenticity, especially for small businesses. She offers a real-life example of Rebel Marketing and how updating their brand voice and visual identity helped them feel more “in their skin.”
Yasmine breaks down what to consider when creating (or updating) your visual identity, reminding us to connect visuals with the personality and mission behind our brand. We discuss how colors, fonts, and imagery all send signals about who you are.
From there, we look at elevator pitches—keeping it short, tailored, and natural—plus the art of leveraging existing content on multiple platforms to build your reputation and stay memorable. We explore how to engage authentically on social media, why networking should reflect your goals and vibe, and how important it is to continually showcase testimonials and success stories in genuine ways.
We wrap up by emphasizing the value of consistency, not just on social but across your website and all touchpoints. If you’re looking to build or refresh your personal brand and want real-world examples and step-by-step advice, this episode is for you.
