Brand Your Way to A Million Jasmine Haitalani

If you’ve been a fan of Becoming The Brand for a while, don’t fret. Your favorite podcast still exists, it’s just undergone a rebrand! So today, the podcast is actually a perfect example to take you behind the scenes into the rebranding process. We’ll start with why I felt like now was the time for a rebrand, what elements we intentionally changed, and close out with what the plan is moving forward.  
 
Believe it or not, I actually didn’t plan on changing the direction of the podcast until the final days of the rebrand. If you’re on the email list, you’ve been getting updates and sneak peaks along the way but today, we’re really getting into the intentionality behind every choice. From choosing to go with a rebrand instead of a refresh to the details of our most recent photoshoot, we’re covering it all! 
 
This episode is going to be especially valuable to you if you're in stages of deciding whether you want to rebrand or not. It can be a tricky decision. You'll find yourself wondering - should I just do a brand refresh? Do I just need new photos? What's working and what's not? So I'm excited to take you behind the scenes into our thought process to help you make that decision for your business. On top of the rebrand, we've got some new and improved resources for you. So if you're more of a reader than a listener, go check out the episode in blog form over on our website. 
 
In this episode, we're chatting about: 
How to answer the question "how often do I need to rebrand?"  Why design trends can affect the way cold leads react to your brand  What we loved about our first rebrand The reason behind this rebrand Behind the scenes on the entire process of rebranding

People pleasing creates watered down brands. If you're a people pleaser, I want you to ask yourself to name three people that are actually pleased with you and being LOUD about it. It's hard to bring out bold, enthusiastic opinions in other people if you're not sharing them yourself. 
 
Think about your favorite celebrities. People rally around celebrities because of their brand! And part of building their brand comes from super bold actions and statements. From one confident claim, we can all guess what their next move might be. We can start to feel like we understand them and even know them on a deeper level. 
 
I think we're all a little bit afraid that we'll sound like a hater if we share our boldest opinions. But here's the thing: you're only a hater if you have no other solutions. I've been guilty of this before! I used to be totally against website templates. But was I coming to the table with a solution for people who weren't ready for a full rebrand? Nope! So I've been a bit of a hater before and I'm sure you have too. 
 
But the great news is, we're all allowed to evolve and change our opinions over time. Yes, it's important to have conviction and congruency in your brand. So don't go out and flip flop with contradicting opinions every week. We don't want to encourage distrust. But there is a way to change your opinion and stay on brand! Tune in till the end for the inside scoop. 
 
In this episode, we're chatting about: 
Why brands that don't center bold opinions have a hard time finding aligned clients  Reframing "mean girl energy"  The difference between a hater and a business owner that knows who they are  How to change your mind without feeling off-brand

How do you make brand decisions before you get any feedback from your audience? We can't for everyone else to tell us who we are. And yet, I see a lot of business owners doing this. They'll try to be for everyone because they want to cast a wide net. They feel like committing to a certain vibe will isolate potential clients. 

The result? Super vanilla branding with no perspective at all. But how do you know what to commit yourself to? One day, you might feel called to the light, airy, beachy vibe and the next, you feel more bold, powerful, and luxury. If that sounds like you, you need to listen to this episode because indecision is death to a good brand. 
 
Your brand is your ability to stand out. We don't want you to be basic, we want you to be a one of one entrepreneur. For Highflier Powerhouse, that meant tuning into the Villian archetype. Growing up, I was always more drawn towards Kate Sanders than Lizzie McGuire. And you can feel that in the brand. We're not afraid to be a little sassy, bold and confident. 
 
You want people to make automatic associations with you. They see a certain meme and they immediately tie it back to your brand. They see your posts on Instagram and they can IMMEDIATELY tell it's your post without looking at the username. How do you do that, even without a big audience? You personify the brand. And you'll have to tune into the episode to learn more about how to do that! 
 
In this episode, we're chatting about: 
Why I don't like the term "cult-like branding"  How I built a brand with a small audience  How your personal brand can allow you to intentional craft an identity that YOU want to embody  Why it makes no sense for a brand like Marc Jacobs to try and appeal to a Gen Z, hyper-trendy audience  Connect with me:

Are you feeling bored of your brand? Well, before you go and tear it all down, I want you to ask yourself "when was the last time I had a brand shoot done?" If it's been more than a year, it's been too long! 
 
A shoot that's well done can provide marketing materials for an entire year. But longer than that? You're at risk of your audience's eyes glazing over. So if you're at the 100K+ mark in your business, it's time to get serious about incorporating annual brand shoots into your strategy. 
 
But before you jump in to a mini-shoot or spend hours browsing Pinterest with no real direction, listen to this episode. I don't want you pouring a bunch of time, energy, and money into small photo shoots that ultimately won't last you more than a month.
 
There are some key aspects to planning your yearly shoot that go way beyond recreating a cool picture you saw on Pinterest. We want to think through exactly how these photos will be used. It's always fun to get a hyper trendy, creative shoot done...until you can't use half of the photos! Working with an agency or creative director will ensure that no photo goes to waste. 
 
In this episode, we're chatting about: 
Why business owners over the 100K mark need annual photoshoots  Why poorly thought through mini-shoots might cost you more in the long run  The importance of planning where each look will be used in your marketing strategy  How having a creative director can help the process go smoothly  Connect with me:

Business owners are shying away from their personal brands and it's costing them money. With the recent "faceless marketing" trend touting the benefits of stock footage reels, I thought it was time to dive into the personal brand pyramid.
 
Because here's the thing - we are all brands, intentionally or not. So if getting intentional about your brand will bring you more money and a deeper sense of community, why wouldn't you? But then comes the question of balance. Many entrepreneurs are afraid that if they start to share anything personal, it will detract from their authority.
 
So in this episode, I'm sharing a pretty exact formula that can bring balance to your page. At the end of the day, people buy from people. So if that dream client suddenly feels more connected to you because you love the same reality show, that's one step closer to a buying decision. The personal brand pyramid will help you balance reputation, relevancy, and relatability. Because leaning too heavily on one verses the other might be costing you money! 
 
In this episode, we're chatting about: 
Why I'm not a fan of the "faceless marketing" trend  The marketing differences between being an influencer, content creator, and entrepreneur  How much time and energy to dedicate to building your reputation as an entrepreneur  What role relevancy plays in your social presense  Why being too relatable might be costing you sales
