Small Biz Buzz hosts Crystal Heuft and Scott Martineau are joined by Chris Ducker, a personal branding expert, serial entrepreneur, and successful podcast host, who helps people monetize their expertise and their personal brand through the work he does at his company, Youpreneur.

Ducker stands by the mantra of when you build the business of you, it's future-proof. It can't be copied, plain and simple. Because of your uniqueness and the way that you lean into that uniqueness is what ultimately makes you future-proof.

“Regardless of what crisis you might be going through or what problems you might be facing, or whatever competitor has stolen your product idea, they can have the exact same product with the exact same packaging, but ultimately, people buy from you because you are their favorite,” said Ducker. “That's what the personal brand business model is all about. It's about becoming somebody's favorite.”

Chris Ducker talks about why everyone needs to lean in to embracing their personal brand. We discuss how The Rise of the Youpreneur (as Chris coined it) is already happening and why “making it personal” is a competitive advantage.

Personal brands.

You see 'em everywhere online and we've all got a few favourites that we follow religiously.

(Come on, admit it!)

But have you ever asked yourself what it takes to build a really successful personal brand?

You know, the kinda personal brand that truly stands out amongst all the noise online AND isn't a flash in the pan success?

Well, that's exactly what Chris Ducker is dedicated to teaching entrepreneurs to build and today he's on the show breaking down the four things every online personal brand needs to focus on!

Wanna know what they are?

Scroll onnnn up and give ‘er a listen!

Are you an author who would want to know what other methods you can use to profit from your book beside the number of books sold? Publishing a book and earning royalties for some authors is already sufficient, however, your book can actually lead to multiple streams of income and can be a springboard to a lot of opportunities.

Together with Jyotsna Ramachandran, the founder of Happy Self Publishing, let us discuss the concept of Youpreneur ecosystem that the trusted international business mentor, Chris Ducker, talks about in his book, “Rise of the Youpreneur", and the 7 revenue streams that you should consider.

You can join other entrepreneurs and business owners in the Youpreneur community hosted by Chris Ducker. In this episode, I share a very unscripted perspective of life as a Youpreneur, and the support that comes from being an engaged member of the community. 

Previously, the site was only opened to new members a few times a year, but it is now open throughout the year.

If you're an entrepreneur who is building a personal brand, running a small business, or you're dreaming of doing either of those things in the future, you will want to take a peek in to this community.

This podcast, now rebranded to Agile Digital Business, (formerly Online Course Connections), has come to be, in part, because of the support and accountability I've gained from my engagement in the Youpreneur community both online and offline.

[Episode notes updated: 1/31/22]

In this edition of BWN, I speak with outsourcing ROCKSTAR,
Chris Ducker.

Chris breaks down exactly how he has been able to build a
multiple 7 figure business by leveraging the power of outsourcing.

He also shares some of the many different tasks a VA can do,
how to find the “right” person/people for the job and the
single BIGGEST mistake so many people make when hiring…and
how to avoid it!

As an entrepreneur, we sometimes forget why we became
entrepreneurs to begin with (freedom).
The “hustle and grind” mentality imo is bullshit and only leads to
burnout among many other problems.

"Work smarter not harder" is not just a catchy phrase.
It should apply to you in your business and this episode will help
you on your way.
