In today’s video, I’m going to give branding tips for content creators. I’ll be talking about lessons I learned from my 5 years of designing brands and websites. I’ll mostly be focused on the branding aspect. Being a content creator, who is also a business, has been an adventure. My content and business have evolved from 5 years ago. In this video, learn what I learned about branding and the hardships of being an entrepreneur.
When I work with clients, I don’t just gain monetary benefits. I also gain experience. With each client I’ve worked with, I’ve learned something new. Each client I served has helped me gain a new perspective on my work and how I’m running my business.
At the end of each project, I send out a survey to my clients. It helps me know what they liked and didn’t like about my service. With that survey, I’ve made little changes or validated the things I wasn’t sure were working or not.
I’m most thankful to my first client. She needed help with branding and web design. She was the biggest reason I focused on making everything simple and convenient. For example, a lot of people can’t code a website, so I can’t make it too difficult when I’m creating a website for a client. I started learning how to use builders and I focus on WordPress since it’s easy to create and design a website.
I also learned the importance of having a solid foundation. My first client had a rough idea of who her dream audience was, but having an outside perspective helped her narrow down her audience more.
Surprisingly, she was not the other one who didn’t solidify their business foundation. I’ve had clients who didn’t think about their brand foundation until they worked with me. Luckily, I give out homework 2 weeks before the project starts, so they have time to create their brand foundation before the official project start date.
Ready to build a profitable business? In this video, I’ll go over how to build your brand as a content creator, the importance of personal branding, and how to get started researching your brand style. Building your brand as a content creator sucks. Well, doing it as a business sucks too. I can tell you that as both a content creator and a business. But it’s worth it.
When I didn’t have a detailed plan, it was really hard to think about what type of content my audience wanted, how I could position myself in my niche, and what I wanted to do in the long run. I wasted a lot of time and energy creating useless things and not being confident in what I did.
Now, after having a detailed plan and writing out all the things I wanted to do in the next 5-10 years, finding out who I was passionate about helping, and knowing how I wanted to help my people, creating content and marketing my services became a lot easier.
So, what’s the secret to building a profitable business as a content creator? Keep reading to find out.

Okay, you know you want to create videos for your brand, but how do you get started? Most people focus on the technical aspect of filming videos. For example, planning, creating a script, what kind of equipment to use, how to edit videos, and so on.
But, will that help you create a great video that showcases your brand? No. Will knowing all these things help you know what to talk about or how to portray your brand on camera? No. Knowing the production aspect of filming is great. It’s one less thing to think about during the filming process, but you still have to think about your image. That’s why I’m going to talk about branding on YouTube and how to create videos for your brand even though you’re shy on camera.
