"Are you on track to retire comfortably?"

Brand is another word for reputation and for as long as I know, humans have done business based on reputation.  

On this podcast, I invited Nicole Smith, CEO of Smitn Marketing and Consulting (not a typo) why branding is important and her expertise in working with organizations to help them build their brand.  

Here's a little bit about her in her own words from her website bio:

"I started Smitn to help clients just like you – founders, solopreneurs, and professionals who are great at what they do, but need help to get the attention they deserve. Some of the biggest brands in the world have trusted me to develop, grow and protect their brands. Let’s put that experience and know-how to work for you.

A little more about me…

After graduating from UCLA I spent the early years of my career in entertainment marketing, including six years with The Walt Disney Company. After earning my MBA from the University of Michigan, I joined the San Diego Padres as Director, Brand Development, where I had oversight of all marketing and branding initiatives. Following my time in San Diego, I moved to Daytona Beach to drive NASCAR’s effort to appeal to a younger and more diverse fan base as Senior Director, Growth Segment Marketing. In May 2016, I relocated to Dallas to lead marketing and fan experience as the CMO for Dallas-Fort Worth’s WNBA team."

 

Lots of good stuff in this episode.  I know you will enjoy it.

Even-though I earned good grades in school, I told my Dad I didn't want to go to college because I didn't see how it would help me become a successful business owner.  

My young often overconfident brain couldn't comprehend how someone who wasn't an entrepreneur could charge me all this money to teach me how to do something they've never done before. 

Well if you have black father you know that didn't fly, so I went to college, graduated, and racked up student loan debt (that I'm still paying off). 

There aren't many things I can go back to my Pops and say that I was right about, but this is definitely one of those topics I haven't budged on. 

As a matter, after years of meeting many financially successful, happy people with no college degree and meeting too many people with Masters degree and PHDs with no money in the bank, I think it's solidified my thoughts around our OVERPRICED education system.  

I'm not saying it's not for some people.  What I'm saying is it's not for everyone and it's definitely way to expensive for the value it provides.  

My buddy Jeff Postell, owner and CEO of "The Post L Group" and I talk about the benefits of alternative career paths.
