Mic Drop #10: 5 Personal Branding Mistakes Keeping You Invisible | Alex Shaw
In these ‘Mic Drops,’ I’ll be spotlighting my favourite, most impactful moments from past episodes of No Bollocks with Matt Haycox. These are the moments that hit hardest, offer the most value, and deserve to be heard again.
Most people are building a personal brand the wrong way, and they don't even know it.
In this Mic Drop, personal branding expert Alex Shaw breaks down the five mistakes that keep business owners invisible to the very audience they're trying to reach. From trying to be known for everything, to outsourcing your voice, to chasing viral views that never convert – Alex covers why 9 million views left him broke, and what he changed to make $23,000 from just 180,000 the following month.
If you're posting content and getting nothing back, this is probably why.
