How Can I help you? In this episode of the Influence Anyone Podcast, host Howie Chan interviews Mike Kim, a top personal branding expert and bestselling author of You Are the Brand. He's helped seven and eight-figure entrepreneurs, like Donald Miller and John Maxwell, build influence without losing integrity.
They delve into how to build a brand where people come to you and seek your guidance, and that's rooted in who you're becoming, not just what you're selling. Mike provides his 3-step framework for building a winning, authentic personal brand, tips on how to start putting yourself out there, insights into his more famous clients, and a simple practice that's made him happier and more resilient.
