Being Famous Is Not A Personal Brand Qualifier
In this episode of the Branding, Boundaries, and Bullshit podcast, your host, the Ghetto Country Brandmother®, goes in on Kevin Hart's attempt at the restaurant business with Hart House. She doesn't come right out and say it was a failure but she certainly teases it.
Being a celebrity is not the same as personal branding and Kevin proves that in spades. That's because there's a difference between being known and being know for something. He's know for being a comedian and that's pretty much it.
Of course, Brandma talks about the importance of personal branding, the challenges celebrities face when venturing into business ventures unrelated to their persona, and the pitfalls of assuming celebrity status automatically translates to business success.
With in your face insights and personal anecdotes, Brandma cuts loose on why Hart's plant-based restaurant couldn't sustain itself and what it reveals about the realities of personal branding.

Why 10x Your Personal Brand
Are you using your personal brand to be popular?
Are vanity metrics minus money benefitting you?
Everyone wants to be a personal branding expert but all they're promising is followers with no funnel of any kind. They expect you to have the brand and marketing know how to turn your popularity into profits.
Personal branding for the sake of personal branding is giving bullshit energy. You may as stick with curating content that has nothing to do with you.

When The Fam Comes To Visit
What do you when you got a house fulla folx?
You invite them to do a podcast.
This is the first impromptu podcast Brandma has ever done with the fam. Hanging out late after a House party it just made sense.
The stragglers were Ebony L. Green (The Ratchet Sage), Charlene Brown (The Brand Misfit), Fulei Ngangmuta (The Resourceful Liberator), Kevin Brown (The Kolorblind Konsultant), and True Adams.
This was a behind the scenes, behind the scenes thing.
Branding, Boundaries, & Bullsh💋t is an unfiltered, unscripted, and barely edited commentary and conversation on personal branding. The host, Ghetto Country Brandmother®, is the Head Brandma In Charge @ Brandma's House. She's been at for over 15 years.
Brandma here for Brandbabies™ who want to be Brand Leaders, not brand. She talks about topics like integrating personal brands into the brand architecture, leveraging bias for marketing, and calling out what she deems bullshit in the personal branding industry.
This is a thing because personal branding isn't personal, it's business
