Today I'm joined by Darrell Vesterfelt to explore why personal brand might be the most overlooked asset for early-stage founders.

First, Darrell shows why traditional startups should borrow strategies from the creator world, sharing how he's helped companies drive sales and recruit talent through founder-led marketing. Then we dig into a step-by-step playbook for building your baseline presence - from getting your first podcast interview to crafting foundational content.

You'll learn how to develop a personal brand that supports real business goals, create content efficiently without letting it consume your time, and increase conversion rates across recruiting, sales and partnerships.
