A Harvard Business Review report stated that 50% of customer perceptions of a business are influenced by the personal brand of its key people.

50%

Marketing teams focus most of their promotional attention and budgets on building the company brand. That’s how it has always been, but it is not how businesses and brands get the ‘edge’ they need over their competition. To achieve this, their leaders must now take centre stage and become ‘the brand.’

Personal branding matters more now than ever

In an economy where growth is slow, competition is fierce, and traditional marketing is losing its impact, business leaders can no longer rely solely on their company’s messaging to stand out. Today’s buyers want to connect with people, not just products or services. They trust and are influenced by experts, not adverts. They follow leaders with perspectives, not brands with carefully crafted slogans aimed at driving sales rather than creating trust and credibility.

The new way to be discovered

For your personal brand to deliver positive business outcomes, you have to move beyond a reliance on having an active presence on LinkedIn. LinkedIn still has value, but it won’t make you more discoverable by your prospects, partners, investors, or buyers: You need to pivot your current personal branding strategy by boosting your AI footprint with a rich mix of thought leadership and media presence.

In fact, SEO and traditional search is being replaced by AI-driven searches using LLM platforms such as ChatGPT and Gemini. 89% of the results they generate originate from the national, regional, trade, and broadcast media (MuckRack, 2026), which is why PR spend is expected to double by 2027 (Gartner, 2026). This is where you must be if you want true industry influence and prestige.

Transform your personal brand from ‘industry player’ to a ‘leading industry authority.’
