Rising above the noise with David Brier

In The Press

In the Press with David Brier

Getting in the press.

It’s always an honor to be respected by your peers and a nice pat on the back when the press finds value in your hard work, talent, skills, and insights.

Some of the most respected publications have written about, interviewed and showcased me and the work I’ve done with my clients.

Here are a few I thought you’d find valuable and helpful in growing your brand.

What’s in a Brand: A Step-by-Step Guide to Defining a Winning Online Identity “There are currently over 8,000 books available on Amazon about branding,” shares branding strategist David Brier. “That many opinions mean something is being overlooked or people are collectively not understanding.” To clear up the confusion, we spoke to Brier, founder of Rising Above the Noise and Leonard Kim of Influence Tree to break down the concept of a brand for you, along with Ben Matthews, Adobe Spark’s Director of Design. You’re in good hands with these three. Kim is recognized by Forbes, Inc., and Entrepreneur as a Top Marketing Influencer and Brier is ranked #3 worldwide on Klout for branding, among other accolades….

Princeton researchers found that within 0.1 seconds, people form judgments about the likeability, trustworthiness, competence, attractiveness, and aggressiveness of faces in photos they were shown. What judgement will people form about your brand in the first 0.1 second of exposure?

Infographic: Brands We Love vs. Brands We Hate “Branding expert David Brier recently created a couple of ‘short but powerful’ Venn Diagrams for an article he wrote for Fast Company that neatly illustrate why consumers adore some brands while detesting others. According to these diagrams, a good brand experience is made up of three elements—“Help,” “Expectation” and “Observation”—which in turn give rise to three other positive qualities, namely “Anticipation,” “Initiative” and “Insight.” Naturally, the brands that we cannot stand would be found to be lacking in these characteristics—find out more about how to “crack the code” of creating a brand people love here.
