Liz Goodgold
DUH! Personal Branding: How Disc Jockeys Can Create the Brilliant Brand Called “YOU”!When it comes to being a disc jockey, you are the brand. Brides, grooms, and meeting planners hire you based upon your image, personality, interaction, and reputation; you are the walking, talking mascot. Come listen and interact with Liz Goodgold as she shares all the secrets you need to know to separate yourself from the sea of similarity. In this free webinar, Liz combines practical and tactical suggestions that you can learn today and implement tomorrow!What You Will Learn:1. DUH! Myth Busting NO! You don’t have to be a celebrity. (Honest!) NO! You don’t have to pay thousands of dollars a month to a consultant. NO! You don’t have to take up your entire year with preparation. (It’s quicker than you think!) Come hear the straight scoop about what works and what doesn’t.2. No More Vanilla You cannot stand out by blending in. Uncover your true identity and then find ways to announce it to the world. Liz shows you how to get respect, recognition, and rewards.3. Getting to Flawless Recall In today’s intensely competitive environment, it’s just not enough anymore that everyone knows your name; they have to be able to say it, spell it, and contact you. Liz unveils her three-part magic formula that will make your network remember you forever.4. Grabbing Mindshare One of the secrets to building a great brand is grabbing mindshare. If prospects, colleagues, and acquaintances can’t remember you, they can’t enter into a relationship with you. Research has proven that consumers can typically only remember three competitors within a category. Learn how to be one of the top three.5. Creating Unforgettable Infomercials Creating an unforgettable infomercial is critical to becoming a successful brand. Liz teaches you the easy method of devising your own infomercial – one that will have your name on everyone’s lips-and mind.6. The Publicity Magic Triangle You can overcome the fear of “tooting your own horn” by letting the media do it for you.The secret to getting publicity lies in the hook, your expertise, and the relevancy of the story. Package it correctly to the media and your phone will start ringing within hours!7. Staying True to Your Brand You can’t possibly do it all; you need to recognize what events you should go to and when you should stay home; when to talk to the media and when to offer no comment; when to trumpet an issue and when to remain silent. Staying consistent throughout will allow your inner circle to understand your true brand.Meet Liz Goodgold, Branding and Marketing Guru. Liz Goodgold is known as the branding and marketing guru.
