Personal Brand & Influence
Build authority that creates clients, partnerships, and opportunity.
Influence is earned through consistency and substance. Use the authority plan to define what you stand for and how it earns, the audience guide to find the right people, and the partnership checklist to keep every sponsorship clean.
Authority & Monetisation Plan Template
A personal brand is a business. Define the promise, the audience, and how value returns to you.
1. The Promise
- What single subject do you want to be trusted on?
- What do you believe that most people in your field do not?
- Who should feel this is written for them?
2. Audience
- Describe one real person you are speaking to, in detail.
- Where do they already spend attention?
- What do they need that nobody is giving them clearly?
3. Authority Evidence
- What lived experience, results, or access makes you credible?
- What can you show rather than claim?
4. Content System
- Three recurring formats you can sustain for a year.
- Your publishing rhythm and the hours it requires each week.
- Where the work lives permanently, independent of any platform.
5. Monetisation
- Name your revenue lines: services, products, speaking, sponsorship, community.
- Price and capacity for each.
- Which one do you want to be biggest in 12 months?
6. Media Kit Contents
- Audience size and composition by country, with real numbers only.
- Engagement figures, past collaborations, and available formats.
- Rates, lead times, and what you decline.
7. Boundaries
- Topics, sponsors, and claims you will never take on.
- How you disclose paid content.
8. 30-Day Visibility Plan
- Twelve planned pieces, four relationships to build, one collaboration to propose.
- The one metric you will judge the month on.
