  1. 0:00Having a personal brand is arguably the
  2. 0:02biggest shortcut that exists today to
  3. 0:03grow a business.
  4. 0:06Wherever you look, business owners who
  5. 0:08have started creating content are
  6. 0:10growing at a speed that was totally
  7. 0:12unthinkable just a few years ago.
  8. 0:15But there is a problem, almost every
  9. 0:16sector is already packed with people
  10. 0:18making videos.
  11. 0:20So if you are building your personal
  12. 0:22brand without a clear focus and strategy
  13. 0:25, it is very, very difficult for anyone
  14. 0:27to notice you.
  15. 0:29The good news is that there is a method
  16. 0:32for building personal brands that works
  17. 0:34in practically any sector.
  18. 0:36It is the path followed by personal
  19. 0:38brands that actually generate revenue,
  20. 0:40and it is exactly what we apply at my
  21. 0:42agency with the businesses we work with
  22. 0:44.
  23. 0:44So in this video, I am going to explain
  24. 0:47that method from beginning to end and
  25. 0:49tell you step-by-step how to build a
  26. 0:52personal brand that works today.
  27. 0:55It will be a practical four-step roadmap
  28. 0:58that you can apply over the next 90 days
  29. 1:00and that will completely change the way
  30. 1:02you see content and personal branding.
  31. 1:06By the way, if you don't know me, I'm
  32. 1:08Ana, founder of the agency Tu madre, an
  33. 1:10agency in Madrid dedicated to creating
  34. 1:12viral content for businesses.
  35. 1:14And what I am going to tell you is not
  36. 1:16theory. I built my own personal brand in
  37. 1:19less than a year. I’ve surpassed 200,000
  38. 1:22followers and today more than 100 people
  39. 1:24write to me every day interested in
  40. 1:26working with me. And it hasn't just
  41. 1:28worked for me, it has also worked for my
  42. 1:30clients. For example, Tristán, the
  43. 1:32auctioneer. With him, we went from 2,000
  44. 1:35to 235,000 followers in less than three
  45. 1:37months.
  46. 1:38In addition, I train students who want
  47. 1:41to learn how to do exactly this. Before
  48. 1:43we start, I need to clarify one thing
  49. 1:45about the title.
  50. 1:47Obviously, a personal brand is not
  51. 1:48something you do in 90 days and it's
  52. 1:50done.
  53. 1:52That would be absurd and, in fact, goes
  54. 1:53against what having a personal brand
  55. 1:55means.
  56. 1:57But I present it this way because if you
  57. 1:59do exactly what I’m going to tell you
  58. 2:02over the next 90 days, you will lay such
  59. 2:04solid foundations that your growth will
  60. 2:06skyrocket and that growth will continue
  61. 2:08to multiply as your personal brand
  62. 2:10matures.
  63. 2:12The first three steps of this process
  64. 2:14are about positioning and strategy, and
  65. 2:16I tell you this clearly.
  66. 2:19Whatever people say, this is the most
  67. 2:21important part, the real secret.
  68. 2:24If I were starting today, I would
  69. 2:25dedicate the first few days of those 90
  70. 2:27just to getting this well defined, and
  71. 2:30you can define your positioning by
  72. 2:31answering three questions.
  73. 2:33The first question is the goal: what do
  74. 2:36you want this personal brand for?
  75. 2:38And which of the two personal branding
  76. 2:40games do you want to play, because there
  77. 2:42are two very different paths.
  78. 2:44The first is becoming famous on a large
  79. 2:46scale, reaching a lot of people, and the
  80. 2:49second is becoming known to a very
  81. 2:50specific audience and converting those
  82. 2:52people into clients efficiently.
  83. 2:55I know what you're thinking, Ana, I want
  84. 2:57both things. That's normal, everyone
  85. 3:00says that, but look at it another way.
  86. 3:03Do you want to be famous to everyone, to
  87. 3:05be known by absolutely everyone, or do
  88. 3:07you want to be famous within your sector
  89. 3:09?
  90. 3:09Both games have good things and bad
  91. 3:11things.
  92. 3:13The first, that of the great business
  93. 3:15communicators that everyone knows, those
  94. 3:17who appear everywhere and whose videos
  95. 3:19reach a student just as much as a
  96. 3:21retiree.
  97. 3:22And then there are the even more extreme
  98. 3:25cases, creators who are famous globally
  99. 3:27, but within the business world, people
  100. 3:29who play this first game seek to reach
  101. 3:31everyone and be accepted by everyone.
  102. 3:34In this game, you earn much more money
  103. 3:36in total, but you also have to put up
  104. 3:38with all the bad things that come with
  105. 3:41being truly famous. In the other game,
  106. 3:43that of becoming known among a specific
  107. 3:45audience and converting well, you build
  108. 3:47your personal brand in a completely
  109. 3:49different way. You also want many people
  110. 3:52to know you, for them to follow you with
  111. 3:54great loyalty, but only within your
  112. 3:56sector, without needing to go beyond
  113. 3:58that.
  114. 3:59Think of the physical therapist known by
  115. 4:02all the runners in their city, the
  116. 4:03lawyer everyone in their trade goes to,
  117. 4:06or the real estate agent everyone in
  118. 4:08their area follows.
  119. 4:09Along with your mother, I am in the
  120. 4:12second group, and very happy. This is
  121. 4:14the game I play, and here it is much
  122. 4:16faster to start from scratch and stand
  123. 4:18out, and you will surely earn much more
  124. 4:20money per follower, but your presence
  125. 4:22will be smaller and you won't have the
  126. 4:24advantages that come with being famous
  127. 4:26on a large scale.
  128. 4:27Like everything in life, both models
  129. 4:29work and with either one you can build a
  130. 4:32huge business, but they require very
  131. 4:34different content strategies. Later in
  132. 4:37this same video, we will return to the
  133. 4:39content strategy and I will give you my
  134. 4:41own example.
  135. 4:42With over 200,000 followers, not
  136. 4:44everyone knows me on the street, and I'm
  137. 4:46not looking for that, but within the
  138. 4:48world of business owners who want to
  139. 4:50grow with content, they do know me, and
  140. 4:52that's why over 100 people write to me
  141. 4:54every day interested in working with me
  142. 4:56, and I can also bill more than 100,000
  143. 4:58euros a week with the followers I have.
  144. 5:01That is what this second game gives you
  145. 5:03. You might have fewer followers than a
  146. 5:06TV celebrity, but each one of them is
  147. 5:09worth much more to your business.
  148. 5:12And one last important thing: it is very
  149. 5:14difficult to start by focusing on a
  150. 5:16specific audience within your sector and
  151. 5:18later open up to the general public.
  152. 5:21That is what many of the biggest names
  153. 5:23have done, but the opposite is extremely
  154. 5:26difficult: starting out known by
  155. 5:27everyone and then trying to become the
  156. 5:29go-to person in a specific sector.
  157. 5:32That's why I insist on this so much, so
  158. 5:34while I was telling you about the two
  159. 5:36games, you surely already thought about
  160. 5:38which one you want to play. Keep that
  161. 5:40answer in mind as we continue with the
  162. 5:42rest of the method. The second
  163. 5:43positioning question is: who am I
  164. 5:45talking to? You have to be super clear
  165. 5:48about this. Who is the ideal person I
  166. 5:50want to watch my videos?
  167. 5:52And this almost certainly goes hand in
  168. 5:53hand with the game you chose in the
  169. 5:55first question.
  170. 5:56For example, my client Tristán, the real
  171. 5:58estate auction expert, doesn't want
  172. 6:00everyone to watch him; he wants people
  173. 6:03who want to invest, or want to invest in
  174. 6:05housing but don't know auctions exist or
  175. 6:08are afraid of them.
  176. 6:09Knowing that is worth so much because it
  177. 6:11allows him to plan each video, in both
  178. 6:14what he says and what is shown, to
  179. 6:15attract exactly that person.
  180. 6:18In my case, to give you another example
  181. 6:20, I make videos thinking about business
  182. 6:22owners who want to get more clients
  183. 6:23through content, or people who want to
  184. 6:25build their personal brand.
  185. 6:27And if you are one of them and you are
  186. 6:29watching this, it means I am doing it
  187. 6:31right.
  188. 6:32But the real reason why this is so
  189. 6:34important is that when you have it clear
  190. 6:36, you can set up what I call an ideal
  191. 6:37client filter.
  192. 6:39It is very simple. Every time I am going
  193. 6:41to make a video I ask myself, will this
  194. 6:43be useful to the person I want to
  195. 6:44attract? If the answer is yes, I
  196. 6:46consider making it. If it is no, I don't
  197. 6:48even make the video. I know that for
  198. 6:50some, defining your ideal client might
  199. 6:52seem like a total waste of time because
  200. 6:54you might think, "Well, if I post, the
  201. 6:56algorithm will just find people for me,
  202. 6:58so what's the point?"
  203. 7:00The true value of the exercise is that
  204. 7:02it helps you filter which ideas to
  205. 7:04execute and which ones not to, because
  206. 7:06most people don't define who they're
  207. 7:08talking to, ending up making very
  208. 7:09general videos, then more general ones,
  209. 7:11and even more general ones.
  210. 7:14I call this chasing views for the sake
  211. 7:16of views.
  212. 7:17When you're clear about who you want to
  213. 7:19attract, you stop chasing numbers that
  214. 7:21only serve to show off.
  215. 7:23In that case, you get more views, and
  216. 7:25over time, that makes your message
  217. 7:26generic and stops it from reaching the
  218. 7:28person who would actually buy from you.
  219. 7:31So, little by little, if you don't do
  220. 7:33this exercise, your audience grows, but
  221. 7:35they buy less and less from you. Setting
  222. 7:37up that filter for yourself is
  223. 7:38incredibly easy. I ask my students to
  224. 7:40write down a very specific sentence.
  225. 7:42I call it the angle. It consists of
  226. 7:44filling this in.
  227. 7:45I help this type of person achieve this
  228. 7:48thing using this method.
  229. 7:50For Tristan, it would be something like
  230. 7:51this. I help people who want to invest
  231. 7:53in real estate buy cheaper thanks to
  232. 7:55auctions.
  233. 7:57In my case, it would be "I help business
  234. 7:58owners get clients with content that
  235. 8:00goes viral."
  236. 8:01Again, it's a simple and quick exercise
  237. 8:04, but it's essential. And now comes the
  238. 8:07third question of positioning, which is
  239. 8:09where the bulk of the work really lies.
  240. 8:11The first two might take you five
  241. 8:13minutes, but the third is much deeper.
  242. 8:16It's what I call the pillars of your
  243. 8:17personal brand. Almost everyone who
  244. 8:19wants to grow their personal brand has
  245. 8:21two major fears. The first: how am I
  246. 8:23going to create this content day after
  247. 8:25day? And the second: how will I stand
  248. 8:27out in my sector if everyone is already
  249. 8:29there? Let's focus on the second one
  250. 8:31because this method helps you stand out
  251. 8:33significantly. We'll look at how to
  252. 8:35create the content in a moment. The
  253. 8:37pillars of a personal brand. There are
  254. 8:38four pillars that are the foundation of
  255. 8:40any personal brand.
  256. 8:42All the people you admire and would like
  257. 8:45to be like have a very clear stance on
  258. 8:47each of them, and I promise that having
  259. 8:49them clear before you start recording
  260. 8:51will help you a lot because they set
  261. 8:53boundaries for making decisions.
  262. 8:55And you're probably already seeing where
  263. 8:57I'm going with this. Winning with a
  264. 8:59personal brand isn't about adding things
  265. 9:00; it's about taking them away.
  266. 9:02When you start creating content, you can
  267. 9:05talk about anything, to anyone, in any
  268. 9:07way, on any social network.
  269. 9:09You have the whole world to choose from
  270. 9:11. Simply put, building a personal brand
  271. 9:13is about setting limits for yourself.
  272. 9:15What you talk about, who you talk to,
  273. 9:17how you tell it, and where you post it.
  274. 9:21And the funny thing, even if it seems
  275. 9:22the opposite, is that the clearer and
  276. 9:24stricter those limits are, the easier it
  277. 9:26is for people to decide if they want to
  278. 9:28be part of your world or not.
  279. 9:31And it's also easier for the algorithm
  280. 9:33to know who to show your videos to.
  281. 9:36So, let's go over the four pillars.
  282. 9:38Pillar one, how much do you narrow down
  283. 9:39your sector? This pillar answers a
  284. 9:40question: how much are you going to
  285. 9:42broaden or narrow your focus within your
  286. 9:44industry? The easiest way to see it is
  287. 9:46with a target.
  288. 9:47If we did it with my personal brand, the
  289. 9:49center of the target would be viral
  290. 9:51content for business owners.
  291. 9:53The next circle, a bit further out,
  292. 9:55would be viral content for anyone.
  293. 9:58The next one, growing on social media in
  294. 10:00general.
  295. 10:01Another, further out, any type of
  296. 10:03advertising or promotion in a place.
  297. 10:05And the outermost circle, the largest
  298. 10:07one, would be the world of business in
  299. 10:09general. The more specific you are, the
  300. 10:11closer you are to the center of the
  301. 10:13target, the easier and faster it will be
  302. 10:16to dominate that space. Because you are
  303. 10:18reducing the ground on which you compete
  304. 10:19. Obviously, that reduces the total
  305. 10:21number of people you could reach, but
  306. 10:23honestly, that is perfectly fine. Almost
  307. 10:25all markets are much larger than you
  308. 10:27imagine, and you don't need that many
  309. 10:29people to build a huge business. The
  310. 10:32idea is that instead of just having your
  311. 10:34target drawn, as you gain authority and
  312. 10:36have more results to show, you gradually
  313. 10:39open up to larger circles.
  314. 10:41And once again, this exercise helps you
  315. 10:43filter.
  316. 10:44The simplest way to grow a personal
  317. 10:46brand quickly is for it to fit very well
  318. 10:48with four things: the content, the
  319. 10:50audience, what you sell, and the results
  320. 10:52you can prove.
  321. 10:53I'll continue with my example. I have
  322. 10:55decided to stay on purpose in the center
  323. 10:57of the target, and I only create content
  324. 10:59that is useful to that type of person.
  325. 11:01And by working so specifically, I can do
  326. 11:03several things. First, always choose
  327. 11:05topics that really matter to my ideal
  328. 11:07client. Second, use examples and
  329. 11:09problems that those people experience
  330. 11:11every day.
  331. 11:12And third, speak with the same words
  332. 11:14that those people use in their heads.
  333. 11:17And fourth, most importantly, I have
  334. 11:18results that prove what I say. That's
  335. 11:21why when a business owner sees Tristán's
  336. 11:23case, they identify with it and think,
  337. 11:24this could happen to me. On the other
  338. 11:26hand, if I were to talk about something
  339. 11:28much broader like growing on any social
  340. 11:30network, I wouldn't have the proof or
  341. 11:32the authority because my specialty isn't
  342. 11:34growing accounts on every existing
  343. 11:35network. I also wouldn't be as precise
  344. 11:38with the topics that interest a business
  345. 11:40owner. One out of every two or three
  346. 11:42videos would end up talking about things
  347. 11:44they don't care about.
  348. 11:46If we placed other profiles in each
  349. 11:47circle of the target, it would look like
  350. 11:49this.
  351. 11:50In the center would be me, helping
  352. 11:52business owners go viral and get clients
  353. 11:54.
  354. 11:55In the next circle would be creators who
  355. 11:57teach anyone how to grow on social media
  356. 11:59.
  357. 11:59In the next, those who talk about
  358. 12:01growing with content on any platform.
  359. 12:03A bit further out, the experts in
  360. 12:05advertising and promotion in general.
  361. 12:08And in the outermost circle, the
  362. 12:09business world, where the big names
  363. 12:11everyone knows are.
  364. 12:13As you can see, if you have a business
  365. 12:15and want to make it go viral, you know
  366. 12:17my videos will be useful more often,
  367. 12:19because it is literally the only thing I
  368. 12:21talk about.
  369. 12:23The further you move from the general
  370. 12:25circles, you might learn things from
  371. 12:26those other profiles, but you will also
  372. 12:28find a lot of videos that don't help you
  373. 12:30because they touch on topics you don't
  374. 12:32care about.
  375. 12:34Usually for the viewer, the more
  376. 12:36specific the content is, the sooner they
  377. 12:38find the solution to their problem.
  378. 12:40And mind you, this is not a criticism of
  379. 12:42anyone, I'm just telling you that it
  380. 12:44helps you a lot to define your sector
  381. 12:46well with this target, because you want
  382. 12:48to cover 100%of what the exact person
  383. 12:50you want to sell to needs.
  384. 12:52This exercise will help you filter the
  385. 12:54topics, the message, and the problems
  386. 12:56you talk about and everything you
  387. 12:58transmit on the internet.
  388. 13:00And now let's move on to the second
  389. 13:01pillar, which is also very important:
  390. 13:03your contrarian beliefs.
  391. 13:05If you have been following me for a
  392. 13:06while, you know that I repeat this a lot
  393. 13:07. You need to have opinions that go
  394. 13:09against what everyone else is saying.
  395. 13:11Why? Because the easiest way to stand
  396. 13:13out in a crowded sector is to tell
  397. 13:15people things that no one else says or
  398. 13:17that go against what is taken for
  399. 13:19granted.
  400. 13:20If you think exactly the same as
  401. 13:21everyone else, you will be a smaller
  402. 13:23copy of whoever is already leading that
  403. 13:24discourse and you will always lose.
  404. 13:28That is why you need new ways of seeing
  405. 13:30things, new ways of doing them,
  406. 13:31something the market hasn't seen.
  407. 13:34Now, I also have to tell you that it's
  408. 13:36very hard to sit down one day and
  409. 13:38suddenly write down every contrarian
  410. 13:40opinion you've had in your life. That's
  411. 13:42why I recommend you create what I call a
  412. 13:44contrarian opinion notebook.
  413. 13:48It's simply a note on your phone or a
  414. 13:50document where you jot down every
  415. 13:52unconventional idea you have the moment
  416. 13:54it occurs to you, and it's super easy.
  417. 13:57Every time you're watching a video from
  418. 13:59someone in your industry and you catch
  419. 14:01yourself thinking, "What is this guy or
  420. 14:03girl saying? They have no idea," that is
  421. 14:05the moment to write down what you think
  422. 14:07.
  423. 14:08That is a new contrarian opinion. And
  424. 14:11the good thing about doing this is that
  425. 14:12the more you pay attention to what you
  426. 14:14think and the more you write it down,
  427. 14:15the more you will train that way of
  428. 14:17thinking. When I analyze the best
  429. 14:19personal brands, I see that almost all
  430. 14:21of them have a few big themes where they
  431. 14:24go against the grain, followed by
  432. 14:26several smaller opinions that support
  433. 14:28those big themes.
  434. 14:30For example, in my case, one of my big
  435. 14:32contrarian ideas is that a business
  436. 14:34doesn't need millions of followers to
  437. 14:36make money; it needs the right people to
  438. 14:38watch it, and the video must be designed
  439. 14:41from the first second so those people
  440. 14:43end up buying.
  441. 14:45While everyone tells you to post more,
  442. 14:47chase views, and upload a video every
  443. 14:50single day, I tell you that a view that
  444. 14:52doesn't buy is useless to you and that
  445. 14:54it’s pointless to upload daily videos—
  446. 14:57it's better to make two great ones a
  447. 14:59week.
  448. 15:00And around that big idea, I have a bunch
  449. 15:03of smaller ideas that support it. Almost
  450. 15:05all personal brands have between three
  451. 15:07and five big contrarian ideas that
  452. 15:09become the messages they repeat over and
  453. 15:11over again.
  454. 15:13As I said, you don't need to have them
  455. 15:15all right now, but you should start
  456. 15:17asking yourself on what major topics you
  457. 15:19think differently than the rest of your
  458. 15:21industry.
  459. 15:22When your entire industry is heading in
  460. 15:24one direction, you head in another.
  461. 15:27And that works so well because people
  462. 15:29are constantly looking for new ways to
  463. 15:31solve the same old problems that haven't
  464. 15:34been fixed yet.
  465. 15:36And I never tire of repeating it: if you
  466. 15:39don't have any contrarian beliefs, no
  467. 15:41different way of seeing things, you
  468. 15:43won't stand out in your industry.
  469. 15:46Let's move on to the third pillar: the
  470. 15:47associations and objects that identify
  471. 15:49you. You don't need to have this figured
  472. 15:52out in the first few days, but you do
  473. 15:53need to understand why it's important
  474. 15:55and start giving it some thought.
  475. 15:57Building a personal brand is ultimately
  476. 16:00about creating major associations,
  477. 16:02meaning getting people to connect you
  478. 16:05with certain messages, people, places,
  479. 16:07and ideas repeated so many times that
  480. 16:09the connection happens automatically in
  481. 16:12their minds.
  482. 16:13A very useful exercise is asking
  483. 16:15yourself which words or topics you want
  484. 16:17people to associate you with. For
  485. 16:19example, in my case, I want to be
  486. 16:21associated with business owners, viral
  487. 16:23content, turning views into customers,
  488. 16:25and a clear method for creating content
  489. 16:27.
  490. 16:28And to achieve that, I talk about these
  491. 16:30things as much as I can, because the
  492. 16:32more I mention them and provide
  493. 16:34practical, unique value, the stronger
  494. 16:36that connection is burned into your mind
  495. 16:38and the faster you'll remember me when
  496. 16:40thinking about those topics.
  497. 16:43The same thing happens with objects.
  498. 16:46If you always film in the same spot,
  499. 16:48always wear a specific piece of clothing
  500. 16:50or accessory, or, for example, film
  501. 16:52yourself with a fork and a microphone,
  502. 16:54like I did for a long time, if that same
  503. 16:57detail always appears in your video,
  504. 16:59you’re doing it to embed yourself in
  505. 17:01people's memory.
  506. 17:03That way, when they think of you, those
  507. 17:05objects will pop into their heads,
  508. 17:07making it easier for them to remember
  509. 17:09you and, most importantly, the ideas you
  510. 17:11want to be associated with.
  511. 17:14Think of any creator you've been
  512. 17:15following for a while. I'm sure their
  513. 17:18hat, glasses, style, beard, the place
  514. 17:21where they film, or how they start every
  515. 17:23single one of their videos comes to mind
  516. 17:26.
  517. 17:27It is much easier for us to remember
  518. 17:29objects than faces or names.
  519. 17:31That is why using objects in your
  520. 17:33personal brand helps you immensely in
  521. 17:35creating those associations in people's
  522. 17:37minds.
  523. 17:38And again, this isn't something you have
  524. 17:40to solve today. You don't need to start
  525. 17:42thinking right now about which object to
  526. 17:44use, but you do need to understand one
  527. 17:46idea.
  528. 17:48The more you repeat and show something
  529. 17:50related to you, the more it sticks to
  530. 17:51your image in others 'memories.
  531. 17:54And that is precisely where the memory
  532. 17:55of a personal brand is built.
  533. 17:58A good exercise is to ask yourself, if I
  534. 18:00could buy one, two, or three words in
  535. 18:02someone else's head, which would I buy
  536. 18:04and how much would I pay for them?
  537. 18:07It's like advertising on Google, but
  538. 18:09inside someone's memory. Those are the
  539. 18:12things you want to be associated with.
  540. 18:14And to buy that space in their head, you
  541. 18:16just have to repeat them more often.
  542. 18:19And now, the fourth and final pillar:
  543. 18:22what makes you different. And in that
  544. 18:24pillar, you really do have to dedicate
  545. 18:26time to analyzing those who are already
  546. 18:27in your sector.
  547. 18:29When you enter a sector where there are
  548. 18:31still few people creating content, you
  549. 18:32win with almost any strategy.
  550. 18:35You just need to show up and post
  551. 18:36consistently, and you end up dominating
  552. 18:38that niche.
  553. 18:40Obviously, the better your content is
  554. 18:41and the more effort you put in, the
  555. 18:43sooner you'll achieve it.
  556. 18:45But in a vacant sector, the only thing
  557. 18:47you need is to be there.
  558. 18:49The problem is that most sectors, on
  559. 18:51YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and social
  560. 18:53media, are already quite full.
  561. 18:56That's why you now have to find what
  562. 18:57makes you different if you want to carve
  563. 18:59out a niche and succeed.
  564. 19:01And there are basically five things you
  565. 19:03can use to differentiate yourself.
  566. 19:05Think about your sector right now, open
  567. 19:06Instagram or TikTok, and search for what
  568. 19:08you do. You'll surely find dozens of
  569. 19:10profiles talking about the same thing,
  570. 19:12with the same tips, and filmed in the
  571. 19:14same way. If you do exactly the same,
  572. 19:17people have no reason to stick with you
  573. 19:19.
  574. 19:19However, if you find something that
  575. 19:21makes you different, even if it's small
  576. 19:23, you now have a reason for them to
  577. 19:25choose you.
  578. 19:27You can differentiate yourself by the
  579. 19:29topic, how in-depth you go, the person
  580. 19:31you're speaking to, the format, or how
  581. 19:33it looks.
  582. 19:35Simply put: talk about topics no one
  583. 19:37else is discussing, cover them with a
  584. 19:39depth no one has reached, speak to an
  585. 19:41audience no one is serving well, present
  586. 19:43it in a way no one in your sector uses,
  587. 19:45or even take something someone else uses
  588. 19:47, change it, and tell it differently
  589. 19:49using something that already works.
  590. 19:53Or make your videos look different from
  591. 19:55the rest, both in how you film them and
  592. 19:56how you edit them.
  593. 19:58For example, to me, the most useful
  594. 20:00exercise you can do is to analyze your
  595. 20:02main competitors across these five
  596. 20:04things to see how they're doing it and
  597. 20:06what gaps are being left open.
  598. 20:08After that, you have to take a clear
  599. 20:10stance on how you want to create your
  600. 20:11content and work in that direction.
  601. 20:14This is important because the more open
  602. 20:16gaps you find before you start posting,
  603. 20:18the easier it will be to adjust your
  604. 20:20strategy to take advantage of them from
  605. 20:22day one.
  606. 20:23If you do this exercise with five or ten
  607. 20:26main competitors, I assure you that you
  608. 20:28will see clearly what you need to do
  609. 20:30with your content to stand out much
  610. 20:33faster. This entire exercise we just did
  611. 20:35, the three questions and, above all,
  612. 20:38the four pillars of the third one, is
  613. 20:40what I call your personal brand
  614. 20:42positioning map, which, in short, is
  615. 20:44your angle. Both you and the person
  616. 20:46handling content on your team need to do
  617. 20:49this exercise and write down every
  618. 20:51single one of the answers.
  619. 20:53And when I say write it down, I really
  620. 20:55mean it. It’s not enough to just have it
  621. 20:57in your head.
  622. 20:58Open a document, title it "my map" or "
  623. 21:00my angle," and fill in every section.
  624. 21:04That document will be your guide
  625. 21:06whenever you doubt if a video fits what
  626. 21:08you should be doing, and it's also what
  627. 21:10you'll pass to anyone who starts working
  628. 21:12with you on content.
  629. 21:13This way, no one has to guess what you
  630. 21:15want to convey.
  631. 21:17In my agency, this is the first thing we
  632. 21:18do with any client before recording a
  633. 21:20single video, and it’s also the first
  634. 21:21thing my students work on in the
  635. 21:23training.
  636. 21:25Analyze the competition, extract their
  637. 21:27pillars, see what types of videos are
  638. 21:29working for others, and find the gaps
  639. 21:32that no one has covered yet.
  640. 21:34If you skip this, everything that
  641. 21:36follows will fail.
  642. 21:38By the way, if you’ve made it this far
  643. 21:40and you're enjoying this, I want you to
  644. 21:42know that if you want to go deeper into
  645. 21:44how to viralize your own business and
  646. 21:46turn those views into clients, I’ve
  647. 21:47prepared a five-minute class for you.
  648. 21:50I’ll leave it at the end; I won't take
  649. 21:51up any more of your time, and let's
  650. 21:52continue with the video.
  651. 21:53Now I want to move on to the second part
  652. 21:55of the video, which is how we actually
  653. 21:56start making content.
  654. 21:58Starting from strategy and how we
  655. 21:59organize ourselves.
  656. 22:01Once we are clear on the foundations of
  657. 22:03our positioning, depending on how fast
  658. 22:05you move, you could have this first part
  659. 22:07done in two or three hours.
  660. 22:09Or it might take you two or three days,
  661. 22:12but I really recommend that you spend
  662. 22:14the next few days before recording your
  663. 22:16next batch of videos defining this
  664. 22:18clearly and setting these boundaries.
  665. 22:21From here, let's assume we have 87 of
  666. 22:23the 90 days left, meaning we’ve barely
  667. 22:26spent any time. And now, how do we grow
  668. 22:28the personal brand? The next step, as I
  669. 22:30was saying, is to set up a strategy and
  670. 22:33a way of working that allows you to make
  671. 22:35videos that fit the positioning we’ve
  672. 22:37just defined. And to do that, during the
  673. 22:40first 90 days, I would divide it into
  674. 22:42two phases. The first is the testing and
  675. 22:44experimenting phase. The second is the
  676. 22:46phase of betting on what works and doing
  677. 22:48it in a big way.
  678. 22:49This is exactly how we work at "Tu madre
  679. 22:51" with the personal brands we manage.
  680. 22:53We apply this same method.
  681. 22:56Usually, the first big block of intense
  682. 22:58work lasts 6 months, so these 90 days
  683. 23:00are more or less the first half of that
  684. 23:02block and serve to gain momentum.
  685. 23:05Phase one, testing and experimenting.
  686. 23:07The first phase, as I was saying, is
  687. 23:09testing and experimenting. Simply put,
  688. 23:11what we look for when we start making
  689. 23:13content for a personal brand is to
  690. 23:15discover which video recipes work for us
  691. 23:17time and time again.
  692. 23:19And when I say video recipe, I mean
  693. 23:20something very specific.
  694. 23:23It is a topic, a format, a setting.
  695. 23:26For example, imagine I am working with
  696. 23:27the owner of a neighborhood bakery who
  697. 23:29wants a personal brand.
  698. 23:31One of their recipes could be this.
  699. 23:33The topic, the secrets to making good
  700. 23:34bread, the format, a tutorial while
  701. 23:36making it, and the setting, filmed in
  702. 23:38the workshop standing in front of the
  703. 23:39oven.
  704. 23:41And they could have another completely
  705. 23:42different recipe. Here, the topic would
  706. 23:44be the mistakes people make when buying
  707. 23:47supermarket bread.
  708. 23:48The format, a list or a ranking. And the
  709. 23:51setting, at the shop counter with the
  710. 23:53product in hand, alternating shots of
  711. 23:55them talking to the camera with B-roll
  712. 23:57shots of the bread, the dough, and the
  713. 23:59customers.
  714. 24:00These would be two different recipes for
  715. 24:02the same personal brand. Normally, a
  716. 24:04personal brand should have between three
  717. 24:06and four main topics, one to three
  718. 24:08formats, and one to three settings.
  719. 24:11By combining them, you get several
  720. 24:13recipes.
  721. 24:14Almost everyone ends up using between
  722. 24:15five and 10 combinations. And again,
  723. 24:17this is so useful because it sets clear
  724. 24:19boundaries for you when creating.
  725. 24:22And those boundaries are exactly what
  726. 24:23allow you to organize production without
  727. 24:25having to start from scratch every week
  728. 24:27.
  729. 24:27During this first phase, the goal is to
  730. 24:29test a lot with topics, formats, and
  731. 24:31settings.
  732. 24:33Because what we are trying to do is
  733. 24:35discover which are the winning recipes
  734. 24:37by answering four questions. First,
  735. 24:39which recipes really work according to
  736. 24:42what we want to measure? Whether it's
  737. 24:44views, new followers, or clients.
  738. 24:47Second, which recipes truly attract the
  739. 24:49people we want to attract?
  740. 24:51You can see this by looking at comments
  741. 24:53, private messages, or even by checking
  742. 24:55the profiles of people who start
  743. 24:57following you to see what they do. Third
  744. 24:59, do we enjoy making videos with that
  745. 25:01recipe or will we burn out? Because if
  746. 25:03you end up burned out, your personal
  747. 25:05brand dies.
  748. 25:06And fourth, does that recipe let us
  749. 25:08appear in a way we feel proud of?
  750. 25:10We don't want the video to seem tacky,
  751. 25:12ridiculous, or in poor taste. We want it
  752. 25:14to look good, to be high quality, and
  753. 25:16above all, to represent us.
  754. 25:19Remember: topic, format, and staging.
  755. 25:22The fastest way to know which topics
  756. 25:23will work is to look at your competition
  757. 25:25.
  758. 25:26Take your top five or ten competitors,
  759. 25:28go to their profiles, sort their videos
  760. 25:30by most viewed, and write down the 50 or
  761. 25:33100 that performed best.
  762. 25:35Then, look at what they talk about, how
  763. 25:37they start, and how they are filmed. You
  764. 25:39will immediately see that there are
  765. 25:41topics that repeat again and again in
  766. 25:42their top-performing videos.
  767. 25:44That is the fastest way to stop guessing
  768. 25:46.
  769. 25:47You can also try to guess on your own,
  770. 25:49but it will take much longer. Regarding
  771. 25:51formats and staging, in this first phase
  772. 25:53, you need to experiment with a lot of
  773. 25:55freedom. Some formats are easier to
  774. 25:57produce than others. Some staging
  775. 25:58options are simpler than others. It all
  776. 26:00depends on how you want your personal
  777. 26:02brand to look.
  778. 26:03Many people create content, but it looks
  779. 26:05very low-quality and generic.
  780. 26:07And that happens because the staging
  781. 26:09lacks sufficient quality or doesn't
  782. 26:10convey a polished image.
  783. 26:13My advice: create a folder with examples
  784. 26:15of videos from other sectors whose
  785. 26:16filming style you love, and use it as a
  786. 26:18reference to try new things.
  787. 26:20That way, whether you do it yourself or
  788. 26:22delegate it to someone on your team,
  789. 26:23you'll be clear on what you want to test
  790. 26:25.
  791. 26:26So, during the first two months—the
  792. 26:28first 60 days of those 90—I would
  793. 26:30publish at this pace.
  794. 26:31Three videos the first week, five the
  795. 26:34second, and then seven videos a week for
  796. 26:36the following six weeks. That’s about 50
  797. 26:39videos, and I would experiment a lot
  798. 26:41with topics, formats, and staging. It is
  799. 26:43not what I do with my clients and
  800. 26:45students. Once you have a methodology, I
  801. 26:47only upload two videos a week, but if
  802. 26:49you are testing and want to build your
  803. 26:51personal brand, this would be best. Here
  804. 26:53and now, I wouldn't worry too much about
  805. 26:55the numbers because my only goal would
  806. 26:57be to discover which recipes work for us
  807. 26:59and which ones we enjoy making.
  808. 27:01The only filter for ideas in this phase
  809. 27:03would be: will this video serve our
  810. 27:04ideal client, the person we defined in
  811. 27:06the first exercise?
  812. 27:08If the answer is no, we discard it, but
  813. 27:10if the answer is yes, we have total
  814. 27:12freedom to test it during those first 60
  815. 27:15days. Obviously, all of this is about
  816. 27:17the strategy for making the videos.
  817. 27:19The practical side—writing good hooks,
  818. 27:21scripting, editing—is separate work, but
  819. 27:24it's all learnable and improvable until
  820. 27:27you reach the level you need.
  821. 27:30This is exactly what I work on with my
  822. 27:31students in my training program. At
  823. 27:33first, everyone is camera-shy, doesn't
  824. 27:35know how to start a video, and struggles
  825. 27:37with editing, but video by video, they
  826. 27:39improve and get numbers like the ones
  827. 27:41you see on screen.
  828. 27:43And when they reach these views, they
  829. 27:45realize that it’s nothing like what they
  830. 27:47were doing on day one.
  831. 27:49So don't stress if your first videos
  832. 27:51aren't perfect. Nobody starts out being
  833. 27:53good. The important thing is to start
  834. 27:55and keep going. So this first phase,
  835. 27:57deep down, blends two things. On one
  836. 28:00hand, discovering our strategy—what our
  837. 28:03recipes are, how we test them, and how
  838. 28:05we know they work.
  839. 28:07And on the other hand, improving our
  840. 28:09skills during those first 60 videos so
  841. 28:12our content is good enough for people to
  842. 28:14want to watch it.
  843. 28:17You are working on both at the same time
  844. 28:18; that is the first phase, and it will
  845. 28:20take up a good part of the first two
  846. 28:22months.
  847. 28:23Phase two: doubling down on what works—
  848. 28:25now we move to this second phase,
  849. 28:27betting on what works and going big.
  850. 28:30Once you've tested those 50 or 60 videos
  851. 28:32, you should be quite clear on which
  852. 28:34recipes work based on those four
  853. 28:35questions.
  854. 28:37Which ones get the best results, which
  855. 28:39attract more ideal clients, which we
  856. 28:41enjoy making, and which ones turn out in
  857. 28:44a way we feel proud of.
  858. 28:47Your goal in this second phase is to bet
  859. 28:49much harder on the recipes that work,
  860. 28:50remove the ones that don't, and simply
  861. 28:52repeat the process over and over.
  862. 28:55Reinforce what works and remove what
  863. 28:57doesn't. Reinforce, remove, polish, and
  864. 28:59remove.
  865. 29:00And do this until, after 6 months, you
  866. 29:02have a fairly clear repertoire of which
  867. 29:04recipes keep delivering incredible
  868. 29:06results.
  869. 29:07My advice is that once a week, you sit
  870. 29:09down with your numbers in front of you
  871. 29:11and look at which videos performed best
  872. 29:13, what comments were left, and what
  873. 29:15messages you received. Write it all down
  874. 29:18and then ask yourself, what recipe did
  875. 29:20those videos have? When you see a recipe
  876. 29:23repeating in your best-performing videos
  877. 29:25, that is your sign to bet much harder
  878. 29:27on it.
  879. 29:29And when a recipe hasn't worked for
  880. 29:30weeks, don't overthink it—cut it and
  881. 29:32spend your time finding one that does.
  882. 29:35Now, I’ll also tell you that over time,
  883. 29:37some recipes, topics, and formats get
  884. 29:39burned out. You use a recipe, you find a
  885. 29:41variation that works, you make the most
  886. 29:44of it, others start copying you, and
  887. 29:46somehow it stops standing out so much.
  888. 29:48Then it's time to return to the phase of
  889. 29:50testing, finding new things, and
  890. 29:52repeating the process.
  891. 29:53That back-and-forth between testing and
  892. 29:55leveraging what works is, precisely, the
  893. 29:57art of making content in the long term.
  894. 30:00And again, you aren't necessarily going
  895. 30:02to have incredible results just in the
  896. 30:04first 90 days.
  897. 30:05Thinking that would be absurd, but if
  898. 30:07you follow this process during your next
  899. 30:0990 days, you will start to see very
  900. 30:11clearly which recipes stand out, and
  901. 30:13from there, you can triple your effort
  902. 30:15on them.
  903. 30:16And I am so convinced that this is the
  904. 30:18way to do it because it is exactly how
  905. 30:21we work at Tu Madre Marketing with all
  906. 30:23the businesses we manage, and it is what
  907. 30:25I teach my students, and the phases work
  908. 30:27the same in all cases.
  909. 30:29The difficult part, obviously, is
  910. 30:31discovering from the beginning which
  911. 30:33recipes work.
  912. 30:34And there is this triangle of questions
  913. 30:36. Does it work? Do I like doing it? Does
  914. 30:38it represent me? And sometimes you get
  915. 30:40something to work, but you don't like
  916. 30:42doing it or it doesn't convey the image
  917. 30:43you want to project of yourself.
  918. 30:45And so, well, you have to change things
  919. 30:47. Add to that the practical side of
  920. 30:49making quality content within those
  921. 30:50recipes.
  922. 30:51Those are the two big obstacles that
  923. 30:53make this whole process more difficult.
  924. 30:56But this video should have given you a
  925. 30:59solid roadmap to know exactly how to
  926. 31:01face your next 90 days.
  927. 31:04And well, this is everything I had
