Ep 49. 🎙️ The Business of You — A Conversation with Chris Ducker on Personal Branding, Virtual Teams & Expert Entrepreneurship
This week, I had the immense pleasure of interviewing my own business mentor and a global authority on personal branding and virtual team building: Chris Ducker.
Chris is a serial entrepreneur, international keynote speaker, and the bestselling author of Virtual Freedom and Rise of the Youpreneur. Based in Cambridge, England, he runs several successful ventures including:
- 💼 Youpreneur.com — a personal brand education company
- 🔍 VirtualStaffFinder.com — a leading VA recruitment platform
Chris has been a trusted mentor to entrepreneurs worldwide since 2008. He’s known for his practical, no-fluff advice on building scalable expert businesses and leading remote teams effectively.
🔥 What We Covered in This Episode:
✅ The real meaning of Youpreneurship and building the “business of YOU”
✅ The evolution of sales & marketing—from Zig Ziglar to Chris Ducker
✅ Why lead generation is like priming a pump
✅ How to leverage virtual assistants for scalability and sanity
✅ The role of health & wellness in entrepreneurial performance
…and much more
💬 My Top Takeaway:
Your brand is not your logo. It’s YOU.
The key to standing out in a crowded market is to own your uniqueness and build a business that’s unmistakably yours. That’s the power of personal branding—and Chris breaks it down masterfully.
