In this week’s episode of Focus on the Fun Stuff, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with PR legend Andrew Bloch. Known for his 25-year journey building Lord Sugar’s personal brand and shaping reputations globally, Andrew is one of the most influential consultants in the industry—and he’s sharing his expertise with us!

We focused on what matters most for small business owners and entrepreneurs: how to stay true to yourself while creating a brand that cuts through the noise in today’s crowded, competitive world. 🌟

Here’s what you’ll take away:

• How to build a personal brand that’s authentic and effortless, not forced
• The power of finding your unique selling point (USP) and sticking to it
• Why personal branding doesn’t require perfect Instagram feeds or highly polished videos—it’s all about doing it your way
• How to focus on the right audience for your business, rather than chasing vanity metrics

Whether the idea of “putting yourself out there” makes you cringe or you’re looking for fresh ways to boost your business’s reputation, this episode is packed with actionable advice from one of the best in the game.
