 S08E08: Don't Settle with VIP Guest Bruce Somers | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 3150

Bruce Somers, Jr. is the Chief Storyteller at Sincbox, a company Bruce founded after a decade in the direct response TV field. He pioneered the brand response category and, to date, has directed and produced over 500 campaigns for clients such as DIRECTV, VISA, Microsoft, Citibank, United Airlines, Starbucks, Dell, Bounce, Cascade, Dawn, CoverGirl, Hamilton Beach, Epson, Disney, Whirlpool, Weber Grills, Omaha Steaks,... to name a few. Here are some key insights from this week’s show: Every person has a brand. You need to build it and guard it with everything you have. Brand power starts with authenticity, as brands can’t be something they are not. When a brand makes a mistake, admit it with transparency, sincerity, and authenticity. This can increase brand loyalty. Hurdles are thrown in our way to give us an opportunity to think harder and improve what we are trying to accomplish. A winner is a loser who tried one more time. All we are, are our stories; it is our stories that get us to where we are today. Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/B8MAM0RaJnk

People are incredible. When you connect into what makes people incredible, the team delivers at unexpected levels. Values are what you do in hard times. Focus and serve the people that you want to benefit from your success. Standing still in a crisis is inviting death. When we let go of fear, we keep moving in an upward trajectory. It is not a failure when something doesn’t work, it is the learning that helps us keep moving forward. Don’t seek perfection in business. Have the agility to play with ideas that inspire. Leadership is all about delivering promises, not just making them. There is nothing wrong with trying and not getting there. Real rebellion is thinking differently and standing alone for something of importance. Keep it real about who we are and what we are doing. Hold on to the leaders, who make you feel like you can achieve anything. Find what you love and find the path to what you love. Don’t stop, as nobody on the planet other than you yourself can stop you. Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/Oj-KG6C-1O4
