Every time I see Warren Buffet on TV, his hair looks like it hasn’t seen a comb in years. Surely he can afford a comb. So, why is his hair so messy? I’m guessing that it’s a subtle — but persuasive — effort to brand himself as a smart guy. Who do we think of when we think of smart guys? Albert Einstein. What did his hair look like? It was a mess. I think we’re supposed to conclude that Albert and Warren are so busy thinking deep thoughts that they don’t have time to think about their appearance. It’s a good branding strategy. So what’s your personal branding strategy? Find out more in the video.
Hi Travis good to see you have caught up with video on the web and you are doing a good job, Well done
Nick
Nick — you were years ahead of me on video, but I’m catching up. Cheers, Travis
He’s done something to his hair such as extensions or transplants. This morning on CNBC he had much more hair in front than ever. What do you think?
Okay, Travis, so judging on your clothes and haircut and on the background on this video, it looks you’re trying to sell yourself as a sunny, upbeat minimalist to the urban-startup crowd.
I’ll buy it, because it’s a positive and simple message I can relate to, here in my urban-renewal office. Cheers!
Hi Antoine —
I’m just trying to tell a story. The look comes from Jonny V.
Cheers, Travis
