On today's episode Seth speaks to Kevin Urban, Personal Branding Advisor about how he help people connect themselves, their business and their products by identifying the stories they tell and integrating them into a brand.
Kevin helps clients and organizations establish their own personal brand, which in turn helps them authentically package their own ventures. His recent Tedx: "The Price of Pleasing" explains his philosophy.
Having originally concentrated on branding actors, Kevin, realizing that everyone can benefit from understanding how they are perceived in society, expanded his practice. His clients can be seen gracing the Broadway stages, FOX, NBC, CBS, HBO, major motion pictures and board rooms.
As an actor, Kevin is a member of SAG-AFTRA and AEA and his career has spanned television, film, national commercials and regional musical theater. Most recently Kevin filmed Family Fang directed by Jason Bateman.
As a teacher, Kevin's approach is holisitc; focusing on the psychological, physiolgical, and the emotional with the philosophy that everyone is talented in some way. Kevin guides each student to unlock and understand that talent. Informed by his love of business models and design, Kevin’s patience to collect and synthesize information helps clients connect the missing dots in their career. With a flair for the visual, Kevin’s strengths lie in packaging and design with a clear plan of how to combine talents and business acumen
