Summary

In this weeks episode Sarah is in conversation with creative strategists and authors of the book: How to build it, Niran Vinod and Damola Timeyin. Together they chat about what it takes to build any type of brand, particularly the importance of being distinctive, memorable and doing vs. saying. They talk about their shared experiences of side-projects born from frustration, curiosity and an opportunity to express yourself. Damola outlines their idea of ‘days 1s’ and ‘day 100s’ and why they make a difference to your network and Niran shares how being an introvert hasn’t held him back from building his net worth.

And in this week's episode, you'll hear me interview Niran Vinod and Demola Temeon

0:12.7

about their new book, How to Build It.

impression of both Niran and Dermola is there people who really do let their work do the

talking for them. And actually in their conclusions at the end of their book, there's a sentence

0:37.2

that says says talk is

0:38.7

cheap you have to actually do and i think that sums them both up brilliantly i love that they

0:43.8

really practice what they preach their book i think which is short and it's practical and it's to the

0:50.0

point and it's one of those things i wish i'd read when we first started Amazing If back in 2013

0:55.0

and I think lots of people will enjoy listening to today's conversation but I think their

0:59.8

book is particularly helpful for anyone who is starting something for the first time or you're

1:05.1

perhaps still grappling with that question of how do I build my own personal brand they were both

1:10.6

incredibly humble and thoughtful throughout our conversation.

1:14.2
