Your Personal Brand
Why We're Showing Up More Personally (and Why It Matters More Than Ever)
There’s a noticeable shift happening in the digital space—and we’re leaning into it in the way we show up.
While Pillar Digital Marketing continues to thrive (yes, we’re still building websites, writing content, managing strategy and running campaigns for our incredible clients!), we’ve intentionally made space to bring more of our personal side into the spotlight.
Leading with people, not just services.
The Rise of Personal Brands
In 2024 and beyond, people don’t just want polished logos and faceless businesses. They want to connect with real humans, stories, and values. The era of the personal brand is not just here—it's thriving.
We’re seeing:
Increased engagement on content that is more authentic and personality-driven
More trust built with audiences through personal connection
Higher conversion rates on offers coming from a person rather than a company
This is why we’ve chosen to show up with more presence, clarity and purpose across our personal platforms. It doesn’t mean Pillar has changed direction. It means we’re embodying the same advice we give our clients: lead with value, be human, and show your face.
Why Personal Brands Work
Trust is faster when there's a face behind the message.
Content resonates more deeply when it reflects personal experience.
Community forms easier when people follow a person, not just a brand.
Your name becomes your leverage for future ventures, offers, and partnerships.
Whether you’re a coach, a creative, a consultant, or a digital service provider like us—building a personal brand alongside your business is a smart move.
Steps to Start Building Your Personal Brand
Here’s what we recommend (and what we’ve done):
Clarify Your Message – What are you about? What do you stand for?
Define Your Audience – Who are you really here to serve?
Show Up Consistently – Choose 1-2 platforms to start and lean in.
Mix Value With Vulnerability – Be helpful, but be human.
Invest in Strategy and Design – A personal brand doesn’t mean DIY.
What We've Noticed Since Showing Up More Personally
Since becoming more visible and intentional through our personal content:
