Passion // Your Brand Promise
Your brand promise is a quality service of value that you provide in a unique way.
The differentiation of your brand promise and how it emotionally resonates with your community are crucial for personal branding excellence.
NO PASSION = NO PROMISE

Passion // Develop Your Promise1. Figure out how your passion can solve a
problem.
2. Find people with similar passions who will help you develop and improve your promise.
3. Test your offering with your community and thank them for their help.
4. After testing, analyzing feedback, and tweaking, let the world know about your offering.
5. Keep tweaking your offerings. There’s always room for improvement.
