    Is your messaging clear?

    When others represent or present you, is your messaging clear and still coming through the way you want it to? Some of the best intentions can still lead your message, your brand and your reputation in a bad direction.

    Consider taking the time to brand, clarify and align your message with how it should be shared, what should be said as well as what shouldn’t be said.

    You might be able to be crystal clear with the presentation, but from your marketing to others you have representing you, they have to hold that same clarity for maximum rech.

    It’s not about ignoring ideas and it is not about every one having the same speech, it’s about being on the same page and planning in advance.


    is your messaging clear, social media quote from loren weisman
    Social Media is not toxic. Social media sites are not toxic. It might just be that you’ve allowed the toxic people you follow on social media to make it toxic for you.

    The way you want?

    When others are representing you, they can do so differently than you, but they still need to be aligned with you and your message.

    While someone might have a more assertive approach, listen to it and make sure it fits you. It doesn’t have to be your voice or delivery, but it does need to be your brand for continuity.

    It goes beyond how you communicate your brand on social media. The same concepts of personal brand communication, should also be set in place for your personnel.


    is your messaging clear, loren weisman quote, if you are saying the same thing as everyone elseIs your message still coming through?

    From how money is raised to how content is shared to the approaches and direction of promotion, marketing, and advertising, keep it uniform and keep it the way you want it. The stronger the brand messaging that considers more than just you as the messenger, the farther it will reach.

    When your messaging strategy has the foundation that allows the message to be delivered in an array of ways that best represents your vision while allowing each person to have their own authenticity in sharing it, the reach expands.

    Take the time to ensure your message is coming through from the intention to the perception and from your delivery to anyone else delivering it for you.

    This means, not just writing a bio, a one sheet, a marketing pitch or sales materials. This is about a full deep dive in to the discovery of your brand and the strategy to make it clear from customers and media as well as others you want to have representing that brand.


    Work on honing that message and not just buying into the sales templates to sell. Focus on the message that can be used by numerous people to engage for greater results in the long term. is your messaging clear, differentiate your opinions from facts, loren weisman, quote

    Thinking like an investor may help

    An excellent things to consider for any venture you are a part of or starting that needs money, is to think from the standpoint of the person that might give you money.

    This is a key reason in how thinking like an investor may help you find investors, investment, and money.


    Now, this is not about the whole shark tank approach. This is not the hype and getting the most cash and smallest percentage and the whole hustler and hype thing.

    This is about stepping out of your shoes and looking at what you are creating from the investor standpoint. Not just to get money, but to feel confident in the money you would be investing.


    A dark red sunrise background with a brand messaging quote in the middle on a blue circle that reads "Sometimes the messaging and story are right where they need to be, but the issue is in the performance and delivery of that story and that message. The melody, tone, dynamics and tempo can be everything in a delivery."
    “Sometimes the messaging and story are right where they need to be, but the issue is in the performance and delivery of that story and that message. The melody, tone, dynamics and tempo can be everything in a delivery.”

    Sometimes we are all too close to a given project and we just think to ourselves,

    How could it possibly fail?”

    And in that limited sighted approach, many failure elements may present themselves.


    Authentic messaging strategies for transitioning businesses


    The problem with that is from being too close, from not creating a detailed enough business plan and not looking at every expense and every potential revenue, we find our selves giving vague answers to detailed questions and leaving the plan in potential shambles with a lot more risk on the table.


    When the brand messaging and the process architecture are not in place, it can create a greater risk for that investor.

    When the security and compliant measures are not in place, again, it can make it a riskier investment.

    In turn, by preparing the foundation to secure your business, in the messaging, the protection the authenticity the story and the humility…

    it can create more confidence in investors and turn up the volume on their amplified authentic opinions on what you are doing with a positive tone.


    You can also dig deeper into swot analysis tools to improve your business as well through data driven and strategic considerations to help the messaging of what you are creating.


    When you run across the operational touch points, the strategic touch points, the core time frames, and the messaging simultaneously;

    It can allow for a sound foundation to be heard above the unison and harmonies of so many others saying the exact same thing at the same time. 


    Discovery and blueprinting before building…
    Messaging before marketing…
    An image of a water tower with a blue sky and clouds around it, a blue circle with a quote in the middle that reads: No one can create your brand for you. No one can create your story for you. To be authentically created, this has to be with you.
    “No one can create your brand for you. No one can create your story for you. To be authentically created, this has to be with you.”

    Giving yourself a better chance

    Imagine you had the amount of money that you need and someone else wanted it. What would you want to see from them to know you would most likely be able to get that money back and with interest?

    This is where how thinking like an investor allows you to attract more investors.


    While many think they are ready to jump in and ask for money, when posed with some simple questions for any type of business to invest in, many of these people begin to ask all the questions, they should…

    and funny enough, the same questions they haven’t answered in their plans.


    How does thinking like an investor makes you smarter?

    By thinking like an investor and someone that is about to invest money, you can see that other side of the coin that much better. It can help you to see where the detail might be lacking and where certain assumptions that are clear to you, may need to be more defined for a potential investor.

    The last part of how thinking like an investor can help is based on the return. This comes to the point of seeing if there is enough budgeted for what is needed to promote and market to allow that money to come back.


    “Sometimes the messaging and story are right where they need to be, but the issue is in the performance and delivery of that story and that message. The melody, tone, dynamics and tempo can be everything in a delivery.”


    Most business plans are incredibly underfunded or are launched too early before all the funding is in place. The bulk and I would comfortable say most… fail because of it.

    Again, by looking at what is being spent where, by looking at the justifications and timelines from the standpoint of an investor, and potentially hiring a business consultant to help to review and make sure you haven’t forgotten anything, you will have a plan that is that much more detailed, showing that much less risk and allowing a potential investor to feel that much better about investing in you.


    “No one can create your brand for you. No one can create your story for you. To be authentically created, this has to be with you.”

    The same comes down to investment. When it works clearly for you, it can be understood by that many others.”


    Thinking like an investor… a great thought process and way to process your thoughts.
