Mastering Authentic Brand Messaging For Coaches [Part 1 of 3]

Copywriting For Coaches

Copywriting becomes so much easier once you have done this one thing…

And that is foundational brand strategy and brand identity work to confidently know who you are, what you stand for, and what you are here to do.

Understanding the importance of brand strategy is a natural prerequisite to copywriting. That’s why I interviewed 11 different brand strategists for this 3-part series to gather a well-rounded perspective on how to amplify your brand message. Each of these strategists approaches their work from unique angles, making for a rich conversation that is synthesized here.

This episode uncovers how you can show up online authentically and the strategy behind it all. We’re getting brand strategists’ takes on how they integrate this and help their clients show up true to themselves.

I wanted to have this conversation because positioning and messaging are where brand strategists and copywriters converge. That’s where we overlap. Today, we’ll explore how to refine and master your authentic brand message—and the top 10 mistakes to avoid!
