[00:02] knew they were kind, thoughtful, interesting, and a good person. In other words, their reputation is actually what makes you trust them or give them a shot. In the digital world that we all live in in 2026, that is the equivalent
[00:15] of having a personal brand. It is simply how the world views you. But for generations before, we had to rely on parents, teachers, adviserss, mentors, officials to advocate for us. Now we have the power of posting one piece of
[00:27] content having the potential to reach thousands or millions of people all we are, what we stand for, and what we have to offer. If you can successfully build a personal brand, just like in dating, you would actually attract the
[00:40] walk you through exactly how you can do that with my own internal frameworks that I use daily. Step one, forget about the traditional way of niching and you've ever heard someone talk about niching, you've likely heard them say,
[00:54] "Choose a specific topic or industry and only create about that one topic." But known for one topic, as you evolve and have different interests and create about them, no one will engage. So instead, if you can actually become the
[01:08] have longevity. You'll always have flexibility. You have a lot more versatility. And this is how you do it. It's through my creator vision framework. It's what I get paid to speak about wherever I go. And it really does
[01:20] encompass all of your content ideas in a way that's super aligned to you. So if this down. So the creative vision framework here has three branches. You have your what, you have your who, and you have your why. In other words, your
[01:35] personal brand is the intersection of what you're saying, who you're saying it to, and ultimately why you're saying it. Let's first break down the branch. what this encompasses your message and the various content pillars you're using to
[01:48] share that message with aka the various areas of your life that you feel that your message is present in. Now the beauty behind this is that the content pillars give you variety of content ideas but also your content still feels
[02:01] overarching message or philosophy or ethos or approach that connects them. So for you to find that message I would ask yourself these three questions. The first one being, do I have a contrarian view? Does my industry or does society
[02:16] say one thing and do I believe another? I just gave you an example of mine. I the idea of traditionally niching down. The second question, what change do I want my audience to experience? Well, for me, personal branding has completely
[02:29] So, if I can give people a glimpse of what that feels like, then I would be naturally turn to me for help? Objectively, when I think about my friends and my family, what do they come to me for? Not what do I want them to
[02:43] come to me for, but what do they actually come to me? Where do they find my expertise? And oftentimes, it is around building a business online. It is oftent times around building an audience online, aka personal branding. Now, if
[02:55] actually give you the four content pillars based on all of the data that I've encompassed over the course of me creating content for the last six years thousands and thousands of students to make this actually significantly easier
[03:09] for you. But before I do that, let's go into the second branch. Who this is your target avatar. Who's on the opposing side of the screen? You have your demographic and your psychoraphic. Your demographic are a bit more obvious.
[03:21] These are factual. These are what a lot of your platforms actually already depict in their analytics tab. So your age, your location, the gender, the occupation. But then in addition, you have what is called psychoraphic. That
[03:33] prefix psycho refers to how an individual thinks or feels, right? It is actually understanding the brain of that other person that is watching your the more you can call to their pains and their desires, the more that person is
[03:47] going to feel tended to, right? So for example, instead of you saying this is how you make good content, you can be very descriptive as to who's behind that screen, you can say if you are a mom that is really struggling with time
[04:01] management, I want you to understand this five minute scripting framework you. Much more descriptive to their psychoraphic. It makes somebody stop that is going through time management
[04:14] issues. Now let's look at the third branch. Why? And this is your story, arguably the most important branch out of the three. Because the moment you start sharing your story, something massively shifts. No longer are people
[04:27] starting to champion you. Now, the best way that you can tell stories is through my 3P framework called problem, pursuit, payoff. A problem is simply introducing the struggle that you encountered. Then the pursuit is how you overcame that
[04:41] the final transformation. What did you learn? What was the insight gained? So, all you need to do in order for you to have endless content ideas that fit in your personal brand is to fill all of this out. Let me go ahead and show you a
[04:55] is where I'll actually give you those four content pillars. So, again, if I to find my message, my message would read something along the lines of long-term asset that anyone can build. Great. Then I go into the four pillars.
[05:11] And from all of my data, I really do believe to have a comprehensive and thorough personal brand that is super attractive and undeniable, it is these four. You have your skill, you have your mindset, your lifestyle, and your
[05:26] passions. Aka, in other words, what you do, how you think, how you live, and what you love. And if you can create content about those four areas of your life, there's really great utility in the sense of building connection,
[05:40] rapport, trust with your audience. So when I look at skill, for me, content creation and digital products come into mind and I'm just listing content topics right here. Then I'm looking at mindset and I'm thinking how do I personally
[05:54] okay, discipline is important to me, ownership is important to me. Then I'm going into lifestyle, right? showcasing the behind the scenes of who I am and how I actually have routines in my life, right? So, I want to walk the talk in
[06:08] you can actually balance this life of being a creator and entrepreneur, this creatorreneur balance by scheduling and doing the batching technique that I will share, right? So, for me, I believe that it's imperative that you're not somebody
[06:22] that just teaches, but you show that you actually follow through. Then you have connecting points to your audience. In other words, if you are somebody that has a favorite sport team, similar to another person that has that favorite
[06:36] sport team, you have something in common to speak on, right? So passions give you audience even further more. So for me, it's wellness. I love to train. It's learning to be a better partner. And so all of these become content ideas that
[06:51] can be presented across these areas of my life. Great. Then I'm looking at target avatar, right? For me, demographic is quite clear. US and Asia, 18 to 34, an equal split between men to women. I I actually speak directly to
[07:04] working professionals, parents, business owners, and creators. Now, I'm looking at pain, which are some areas that my audience is actually struggling with, right? They don't know what to pose. They might have grown before, but they
[07:16] judgment. And some of their desires may be that they want to gain their first loyal community or leave a meaningful impact. Then in terms of stories again I'm introducing various problems. The first one could be I outgrew my audience
[07:31] content now I'm serving the right audience. Or it could be that I had a millions of people and now I feel really confident in my value. Or I had no money growing up. I sold digital products to my audience and now I became my family's
[07:44] first millionaire. You will see then what's beautiful is that I walk the talk you is how I grew 5 million followers on Instagram and 8 million followers across my platforms. All of these actually become content ideas, content topics
[07:58] that you can create on, right? So, you can make a piece of content that says, want to gain your first 10,000 followers, here's exactly your next piece of content saying, "If you're between the ages of 18 and 21 and you're
[08:12] really struggling with discipline, here's exactly what you need to do the lines of, "If you think it's impossible to balance both creating content and running a business, here's the batching method that I would
[08:25] various topics that fit all underneath your umbrella of a personal brand. Look, examples and actually do a much more detailed version of this. If you'd like, below, but for the sake of moving along,
[08:40] creator vision. I would encourage every single one of you to make one and tag me literally there are tens of thousands of people all across the world that are day more and more people learning about my creative vision and I want you to win
[08:56] with it too. Step two is learning about what's actually good content. Now, good versus bad content. And if I was to quickly summarize it for you, good content is actually audience first versus being selfish. It's clear and
[09:10] structured versus being vague and unstructured. It shares some type of viewer. It starts with a strong hook versus it's easy to scroll past. It takes the viewer on a journey versus being passive and forgettable. This
[09:23] table does a really good job of quickly summarizing the differences. But what is actually do believe it's a science. I believe it's a skill that can be learned. I believe that it as technical as any other skill in the world is. And
[09:35] you think about content creation, you think about creativity, spontaneity, contempered that you can break down and realize that the repeated patterns are showing up
[09:49] best creators. It's not because we're reinventing the wheel, but we understand what good formats look like. So I just that actually can entail and then I would encourage you to follow along and
[10:04] one see how detailed I study this and then do that for yourselves for other contents too. I am the master of a specific type of content with short form and it is called my silent film storytelling. It is where you tell your
[10:16] own story through B-roll, sound and text. Every single day I'm scrolling will find at least five to 10 different reels of people copying this storytelling template that I've given people and they will tag me as
[10:30] inspiration. And it is quite a beautiful experience to encounter. And it's because throughout my YouTube videos, throughout my Instagram reels, I've actually given this away because I want people to win. And now I'm going to give
[10:42] it away for another time. I really encourage you to check this out. And there's actually copyright issues, so we can't play the sound of the video. But click the description box. You will see a link to one of the Instagram res that
[10:56] I've posted, and you will understand exactly what I mean. So, if you actually encourage you to watch that first before you hear my breakdown. But anyways, let's go into how I've broken down this video. So, everyone will see this piece
[11:09] of content and think to themselves, "Oh, it won because it was relatable or it was vulnerable." And it's the worst thing to ever say because how in the world are you going to emulate that? How objective is the idea of being
[11:23] if I told you that, how the heck would you follow through with it? I would be the worst teacher in the world versus there's actually tangible features of that format that I am checking off in my brain. And that is why I consistently go
[11:35] viral with that exact same format. The first one is the idea that that initial beginning of the video needs to start with the struggle. And that means that you have a visual and a text hook that both highlight the pain that you've
[11:47] endured. So, is it that you've gone through a breakup? Is it that you were burnt out? Is it that you faced financial hardship? It's because everyone as human beings, our common denominator is struggle. All of us have
[11:59] encountered pain in some parts of our lives. And so if you're constantly starting your content with you flexing your fancy watches and your lavish wonder why no one cares about you, it's because literally no one cares about
[12:13] struggle, there's great power in that because immediately you find people want you to win. In other words, they'll actually be retained on that piece of content. Then step two, you should always try to use a sound with a rising
[12:27] action. Why? Because it insinuates a payoff. you're not going to have a there's going to be a moment in which that beat drops and then ultimately that transformation will actually ensue. Step three is adding a timestamp. So for me
[12:43] all the time I will add either a year or a month or maybe even a specific period of my life or an age because it insinuates to people okay there's going to be a logical progression that occurs. I am not going to just put on to my
[12:56] video out of nowhere 2012 without people knowing that there's going to be So, it's going to insinuate a payoff, meaning the retention is going to be held. Step four, I perfect the pacing. This is where most people go wrong. They
[13:09] think that short form content is always fast and that they have a lot of cuts to them. But the problem is there's a fine line between fast and also too jarring, right? So, you want something engaging. To be engaging, you have to actually
[13:22] read each frame aloud and actually get through that entire sentence or line want to do a very quick test before you post your videos, make sure you can speak aloud each line before that frame moves on and then you know it has good
[13:36] cadence. You also don't want to be waiting on each frame too long either. sentence aloud so that the next frame can move on. Now, step three is quite important because this is where it comes together and it allows you to have
[13:49] clarity on a week-by-eek basis. And that is ultimately your content planner. Truth be told, all I do for my content planner is have three rows. The first row is idea, the second row is format, and the third row is intensity. Now,
[14:02] what I mean by intensity is how difficult, how much energy does it actually require for me to make that video. I would think that sub one hour to make a video is actually called low intensity. And beyond an hour,
[14:14] especially above two hours, is where you go into medium to high intensity territories. For me, I always recommend that you should go one to two medium to high intensity formats and five low inensity formats. So then I will
[14:27] document that. I will put my ideas based on the creator vision that we just went over, right? In step one, that was the creator vision, right? The practice of looking at topics, extrapolating them for ideas. Great. Then I'm looking at
[14:39] studying the formats like I showed you in step two. So step one, step two come way that I have just mentioned and now you have a content planner that gives this is something that I've done for myself time and time again. So you see
[14:54] here for my creative vision, I have multiple ideas from my framework that I filled out above. I have different formats and again I have five low And this is really great for sustaining your success or sustaining your energy
[15:08] levels without burning out. Step four, this is where you start to analyze what work, you should actually double down on it and repurpose its format and messaging. People get so afraid of repurposing or even sometimes blatantly
[15:21] reposting their own content because they feel as though it's redundant or it's lazy. I want to give you permission to do this because it's actually really powerful as a creator. Once you start to have more successful formats and
[15:33] repertoire, it becomes easier for you to sustain your level of success for the long term. So, here's a really great example, right? These are all very much very, very close storylines. It's actually the silent film storytelling
[15:48] format. And you have 22.9 million views. You have 32.8 million views, 3.6 You have 32.8 million views, 3.6 million, 4.4 million, 99,000 and 79,000. others are on Instagram. But you can see how once I learned this format, this
[16:03] repurposing it in order for me to sustain my level of success without having to start from scratch. And these are literally just reposts, right? content. And you can look across the board. All of them have millions of
[16:16] the science. Once you understand the formula, the way that I'm breaking it the various formats, I already gave you one template. Content creation becomes you know that you can have a higher predictability for success. Look, the
[16:32] algorithm is not perfect in the sense where you can always guess it. But it does allow you when you study it to have more control over that process. So maybe your hit rate or your success rate goes from, let's say, having one successful
[16:44] that at least three or four of them are probably going to be good. That allows size and build even more connection at great scale. With that being said, those four steps are exactly how you're going to be building a personal brand in 2026.
[16:59] practitioner. I do every little bit of what I say. And you can see how in something of interest for you, please leave your comments below. If there's certain areas that you want me to create a more specific or thorough video on,
[17:12] I'm more than happy to do that. And give this video, of course, a thumbs up and going to be a lot more personal branding content coming your way. I really do believe that this is the opportunity. And I don't know if there's anyone more
[17:24] I'm super excited to do this for you guys and I can't wait to see all of your guys' wins.
