Branding Without the Bullsh*t: Low-Cost, High-Impact Strategies That Actually Work

Jess Whatman & Hermione Gardiner Season 2 Episode 2

Too many agents think branding means paying a designer, picking a colour palette, and posting once a week with a generic quote.

In this episode, we’re calling out the biggest branding myths and showing you what actually builds trust, gets you noticed, and helps you grow without needing a big budget or marketing degree.

We share three simple strategies you can use to sharpen your brand, improve consistency, and connect with the right clients. Whether you're running solo or part of a big-name franchise, this episode is packed with practical tips.

We Talked About

  • Why your brand is more than just your logo and colours
  • How inconsistent branding turns clients off and how to fix it
  • Why showing your face and personality builds trust
  • How to make content feel aligned without oversharing
  • Smart ways to partner with other brands and grow your audience
