Chapter One: Your BRAND your PASSION!

Runa Magnusdottir, co-founder of BRANDit and international trainer, works with participants to discover unique ways to build up their own company culture of Passion and Purpose. Every individual has unique gifts and a unique purpose in life, and every company provides a unique value to its customers, clients and to the world. In today’s busy society, business owners are seeing the importance to gain clarity on their own Passions and Purpose in their professional as well as personal life .During this training course, you will discover your own Work Passions and Core Passions, learn the tools for a Passionate Life, determine where you stand now in living your Work Passions, and create your own future 10-year vision. This is taken from The Passion Test ™ from the #1 NY Times bestseller book by Janet Bray Attwood & Chris Attwood.



Chapter Two: The BRAND called YOU!

Mary Schnack, an international PR specialist and consultant, clarifies your own unique BRAND. The first step of a well-rounded communications campaign is to create your brand, your identity. YOU are a brand and an important part of the business's branding. As we are constantly vying for attention in a crowded marketplace, we must build our brand to position ourselves as an EXPERT in our field. By being seen as an expert, our branding helps us secure financing, generate awareness through publicity and build our reputation in our communities. What do you stand for? What makes you unique in your field? What makes people remember you and want to do business with you again? It’s not an easy question for most people to answer! It doesn’t matter what size your business is, how much revenue you create or how many employees you have or even if you work for someone else. YOU are a brand. When you can define your brand, you can successfully market YOU.



Chapter three: Your BRAND new Marketing Kit

In business, fresh and outstanding images of the BRAND YOU can have a big impact. It is important how the pictures are captured and the feeling they present when you send them across to your clients or media. They should present you as a professional and identify your BRAND. This is Bjarney Ludviksdottir’s specialty and passion, and you will be amazed with the outcome. In order to capture the perfect image we take two days to shoot each participants profile from various different angles. In studio with hair and makeup and in nature. You will leave with three different stylized head-shots ready for your BRAND new Marketing Kit. Your BRAND new video pitch trailer serves as a personal tool to give your clients and media a positive feeling about you and what you represent.
