About this Event

Personal Brand, Confidence and Visibility is a practical, confidence-building workshop designed to help small business owners get clear on who they are, what they stand for and how to show up — online and in person — in a way that feels authentic rather than awkward.

Most people in business are more visible than they think they are. The problem isn't that nobody knows they exist — it's that the picture people see isn't clear, consistent or compelling enough to create the right opportunities.

This session cuts through the noise around personal branding — it's not about being someone you're not, posting constantly or having a perfectly curated feed. It's about knowing what you stand for, communicating it clearly and showing up consistently enough that the right people take notice.

What we'll cover:

• What a personal brand actually is — and what it isn't
• Why visibility feels uncomfortable for so many business owners, and how to reframe it
• Identifying what your personal brand stands for — your values, your voice and your difference
• How to communicate your brand consistently online and in person
• Practical visibility actions that feel manageable and authentic
• How confidence and personal brand reinforce each other — and how to build both
• LinkedIn, social media and in-person networking as tools for personal brand visibility
• How to show up authentically without feeling exposed or over-exposed

What you'll leave with:

• A clear personal brand message you feel confident using
• An understanding of what your brand stands for and how to communicate it
• Practical visibility actions tailored to where you are right now
• Greater confidence showing up online and in person
• A simple plan for building consistent, authentic visibility

Practical information: This is a free, in-person workshop running for approximately three hours with a break included. No preparation is required — just come ready to think, reflect and work through some practical exercises. Bring a notebook if you prefer to write by hand, or a laptop or tablet if you'd rather type.

This event is for pre-start and early-stage business owners in the South of Scotland — particularly those who are working alone or in the first few years of running their business, feel unclear on what their personal brand actually stands for, struggle to talk about themselves and their work with confidence, or find visibility — online or in person — uncomfortable or overwhelming.

It is also suitable for anyone who has been in business a while but feels their message has drifted, their online presence no longer reflects who they are or what they do, or they know they should be more visible but keep finding reasons not to be.

This session will resonate particularly strongly with people who are great at what they do but find it hard to talk about it — those who feel more comfortable doing the work than promoting it.
