127 | The Founder Brand Strategy, lessons from Dave Gerhardt

The BEST way to build trust with your customers is to share your story. Your PERSONAL story is your competitive advantage. Nobody can copy what you have experienced. Nobody can conjure up your stories. And, trust me, customers love authentic stories. What I"m talking about here is called the "Founder Brand" strategy. It"s a new kind of marketing framework that uses the founder"s (or the CEO"s) unique experiences as leverage to grow sales, relationships, and company well-being.  The 5 Benefits of Leveraging your company"s "Founder Brand" Based Dave Gerhardt book and our experience with our clients:Organic inbound stream of dream clients who trust the leadership of the business and want to work with you.
