Build Your Authentic Brand with Ease – Wisepreneurs Newsletter


Hello Reader,

This Week’s Focus: Relational Branding & Thought Leadership — Building Your Authentic Presence

Relational Branding & Thought Leadership is about crafting an authentic brand through contextual storytelling, helping you attract ideal clients with trust and influence.

As a Wisepreneur, your crystallized intelligence—the deep knowledge, skills, and wisdom gained over decades—sets you apart.

Unlike younger professionals, your ability to draw on years of experience gives you a competitive edge, enabling you to offer nuanced insights and build trust quickly.

Paired with networked cognition—collaborating with peers to amplify ideas—you’re positioned as a thought leader.

Mac tools ensure your brand voice stays consistent across platforms like LinkedIn and email, without the hassle of manually searching for and updating text, saving time and reducing stress.

Start with macOS Text Replacement (free, built-in): go to System Settings > Keyboard > Text Replacement, add “;bio” to expand into your tagline eg. “Linda Smith, Safety Consultant with 30+ Years of Expertise.”

By doing this you can ensure that your bio remains consistent in LinkedIn posts and client emails, effortlessly reinforcing your expertise.

For more features, try Rocket Typist (App Store, ~$10 one-time) or TextExpander (https://textexpander.com, ~$3/month), which syncs across apps.

Want a bigger toolkit? Alfred Snippets (https://www.alfredapp.com) offers advanced options—I’ll share more on Alfred in future newsletters.

My services build on these tools to create a cohesive personal brand:

  • Strategic Coaching boosts your confidence,
  • Authentic Branding shapes your unique voice, and
  • Website Solutions ensures your online presence reflects your expertise

Actionable Tip

Create a LinkedIn post sharing a lesson from your career, using Text Replacement to add your bio quickly.

At 13, after relentless humiliation by a maths teacher, Laurie fled school for the glow of a Frankston tile factory furnace. What followed wasn’t a straight path—but a journey of courage, setbacks, and...
