How to Get Noticed: 8 Tips the Top 1% Use

Most personal brand advice wasn't written by designers. Designers have spent 100 years thinking about how identity, visibility, and meaning actually get built — and almost none of that thinking has made it into the coaching world. In this video I'm sharing 8 habits that designers use to build lasting identity — from Susan Kare and Dieter Rams to Paula Scher and Otl Aicher — and how to apply each one to your personal brand right now. These habits won't ask you to film a vulnerable Reel. They'll save you years of redesigning.
