Event Details

When you have a powerful reputation customers flock to you, those around you are loyal to you, and you have enough trust to withstand scrutiny and setbacks. But, if you have a weak reputation, then it’s hard to stand out from the crowd, you’ll struggle to attract and keep great people and customers. Most people and most companies have virtually no strategy, intention or process to shape their personal reputation. Because of that they lose relationships, they lose revenue and they lose trust with the general population. It doesn’t have to be that way. Personal Brand Strategist, Kristen Hartnagel and her team at Brand Builders Group, have studied, researched and developed what they call “The Reputation Formula.” Kristen shares a seemingly simple but powerful step by step process to give you the kind of indestructible reputation that will make you and your company legendary. Learn how to build a great reputation and watch how it becomes the ultimate competitive advantage for you and your business.

Learning Objectives:

Attendees will:

1. Work through their own Brand DNA Helix, learning how to position the problem only they can solve helping them rise above the noise.

2. Learn the Reputation Formula

3. Learn the Characteristics of a Rock Solid Reputation

4. Learn strategies for Purposeful Posting
