So, let’s kick off this special series with an exclusive look at my interview with Kevin Harrington—Shark Tank legend, investor, and branding expert.

‍

Why Personal Branding is No Longer Optional

Kevin Harrington has built massive success through branding, investing, and media strategies. But the key to his long-term success?

👉 Personal branding.

And this isn’t just theory—his story proves it.

One of Kevin’s greatest insights came from a conversation with Richard Branson, who told him:

“Your business ventures will come and go, but your personal brand is the one thing that will last.”

That was a turning point.

From that moment on, Kevin doubled down on building his brand—and it opened doors he never imagined.

Lesson: You are the driving force behind your business. Your brand isn’t just a marketing tool—it’s an asset that compounds over time.

‍

The Impact of Personal Branding on Business Growth

We asked Kevin:

💡 “How has focusing on your personal brand impacted your business compared to before it was a priority?”

His response? Game-changing.

✔️ Before, his ventures were all about skills and media strategies.
✔️ After investing in his personal brand, his opportunities skyrocketed.
✔️ He grew his TikTok following to over a million followers, leveraging it to launch new ventures, land endorsements, and scale businesses.

Key takeaway: A strong personal brand = more credibility, bigger opportunities, and higher-value relationships.

And it’s not just Kevin.

At Valiant CEO, we’ve seen countless entrepreneurs benefit from personal branding—landing investors, partnerships, and media exposure just by positioning themselves correctly.

‍

Breakthroughs & Financial Wins: Real Proof

One of Kevin’s biggest personal branding wins?

🔥 Joining the Board of Directors at Celsius when the stock was worth 22 cents.
🔥 10 years later, the stock hit $200 a share.

That’s insane growth—and a perfect example of how personal branding creates financial opportunities.

Lesson: Your brand isn’t just about exposure—it’s about making strategic moves that align with your evolving identity.

💡 Bottom line: Build your brand NOW, so you can leverage it when the right opportunities come.

‍

How Entrepreneurs Can Leverage Established Brands

Even if you don’t have a massive brand yet, you can still gain credibility.

How?

Association.

Kevin shared a powerful example from his “Day with a Shark” event:

🚀 A startup called Plume Social raised $50,000 in 30 days simply by being associated with Kevin’s brand.

What this means for you:

✔️ Get featured alongside industry leaders.
✔️ Leverage credibility through collaborations and partnerships.
✔️ Position yourself next to well-known brands.

This is exactly why we created Valiant CEO Magazine and The Authority Podcast—to give entrepreneurs a platform to associate with major names in business.

‍

Actionable Steps to Build Your Personal Brand Today

Kevin shared three essential steps every entrepreneur should take:

1️⃣ Establish Your Authority

✅ Create a lead magnet (a free guide, checklist, or ebook) to attract your audience.
✅ Share your expertise and control your narrative.

2️⃣ Leverage Video Content

✅ Video builds trust, rapport, and authority faster than any other medium.
✅ Start posting short-form content on TikTok, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

3️⃣ Run Targeted Ads

✅ Invest in Facebook, Instagram, and Google ads to automate visibility.
✅ Ads help you reach thousands of people daily, even if you’re just starting out.

‍

Navigating the Digital Landscape

Kevin has reinvented his brand multiple times.

📢 From TV infomercials to social media dominance, he’s adapted to where the audience is.

💡 His advice: Test everything.

The beauty of digital marketing is that you can get results instantly—unlike traditional advertising, which takes months.

🔹 Experiment with different platforms.
🔹 Find what works.
🔹 Double down on proven strategies.

‍

The Secret to Long-Term Brand Growth

One of my final questions to Kevin was:

💡 “How do you measure success in personal branding?”

His answer?

✔️ Not instant gratification.
✔️ Not vanity metrics.
✔️ But long-term relationships, opportunities, and influence.

👉 Your brand is always working for you—even when you don’t see immediate results.

‍

Final Thoughts: Don’t Wait to Build Your Brand

If there’s one thing you take away from this, it’s this:

Your personal brand is your most valuable asset.

🚀 It opens doors.
🚀 It builds credibility.
🚀 It attracts opportunities you never imagined.

And that’s why I’m giving you a free opportunity to get featured in Valiant CEO Magazine.
