Take Aways
Three conditions that need to be met in order to build a viable brand:
Purpose. Consumers need to believe that the people they hire are motivated by a higher purpose, otherwise they’ll assume it’s opportunism.
Positioning. Commit to a particular type of project that you’re great at and an ideal client, or you’ll never excel
Character. Sharing your value and personality allows your customer to buy into you as a brand.
