Who wouldn't want a rockstar on their team?”— John Miziolek

TORONTO, ON, CANADA, March 19, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Branding expert John Miziolek has created an online personal branding course called L5 Shift that will help propel your personal brand into the stratosphere and achieve what John calls "Rockstar Level" status.

"We’ve entered a new era where personal branding is not just important, it is imperative in order to differentiate yourself. Differentiation has become one of the most important factors in separating yourself from your peers." said John Miziolek from L5 Shift.

Everyone needs a new edge, and a rockstar level personal brand could be the difference. John has decoded the secrets of the rockstar persona and used them to build his own personal brand. John Miziolek is an award winning branding expert, a keynote speaker, podcast host, a recording artist and a best-selling author. He has been featured in USA Today, Fast Company, The C-Suite Network and on NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX affiliates across North America.

John is also a rock and roll drummer and has a deep love for music. He became frustrated with the old methods of building a personal brand that just weren’t effective anymore and created L5 Shift to help people build their own rockstar level personal brands. John combined his expertise in branding with a deep understanding of what it takes to be a rockstar, and developed a unique system that will accelerate personal brands to new levels. This system is called the Rockstar Matrix.
Whether you are looking for a promotion, a new job, a new career, having a strong personal brand is critical to your success.

Here are John's top 3 reasons why a personal brand is so important:

1-It helps you stand out: 70% of employers use Social Media to screen applicants during the hiring process and 43% use Social Media to check on current employees. Your brand is your reputation and if you’re not building it, you’re falling behind and increasing your risk.

2-It builds trust in your audience: Building a strong personal brand will give current and prospective employers the confidence that you are representing them in a credible way with clients, at events, on sales calls. This leads to stronger job stability and more opportunities within your organization.

3-It leads to more opportunity: The average person switches jobs every 2-3 years and gig workers account for more than 40% of the workforce. You need to work differently and a rockstar level personal brand will help you stand out and get noticed.

"I created L5 Shift to help people understand the branding process and encourage them to build a strong personal brand so they can maximize their opportunities in life." said John Miziolek, creator of L5 Shift.

Birks Repositions Its Brand to Attract Younger Consumers

John Miziolek comments on Birks' repositioning strategy for The Globe and Mail.

John Miziolek comments on Birks' repositioning strategy for The Globe and Mail.

John Miziolek, President and Co-founder of Reset Branding was recently asked by the Globe and Mail's Paul Attfield to comment on the new positioning strategy of Birks. The following is an excerpt from the article.

After 133 years of selling its fine jewellery out of “intimidating” stores replete with oppressive dark wood, Montreal’s Birks Group Inc. decided to go in a new direction.

So, to coincide with the hiring of current president and chief executive officer Jean-Christophe Bédos three years ago, Birks underwent a comprehensive rebranding campaign. The goals were clear: to become more of an international brand, to revitalize the product lines, and to make the jewellery buying experience a more relaxed event.

The company was also responding to competitors, such as Tiffany & Co., which has grown its Canadian operation in recent years, and De Beers SA, which opened its first Canadian store two years ago.

Birks switched direction and targeted three different consumer segments: Generation X shoppers, affluent millennials and international luxury customers. It was a decision that was long overdue for some who follow the sector.

Canada's National Food Branding Strategy?

John Miziolek interviewed by Globe and Mail

John Miziolek interviewed by Globe and Mail

John Miziolek, President and co-founder of Reset Branding and Executive Producer and Host of Design Masters Canada, was recently interviewed by the Globe and Mail about Canada's national food branding strategy and whether or not it could change the perception of Canada's brand on a global scale.

"A big challenge"

The challenge of developing a popular national brand strategy lies in the fact that Canada’s food products are diverse – everything from apples, to meat to dairy and grain. On top of that, the country’s growers range in size from small family-run growers to massive agribusinesses.

“What we would have to do is create an umbrella strategy that is flexible enough that it can be used regardless of the organization that is part of it,” says John Miziolek, president and co-founder of Oakville, Ont.-based Reset Branding, “because there’s no way you could create one singular brand and hope that it would fit everybody’s needs.”

The solution could be creating smaller brands for each of those diverse products and then to develop an umbrella strategy to encompass the smaller classes, he explains. But he emphasizes that making it mandatory would be the strategy’s death knell.

“Just from a branding and marketing perspective that’s a horrible way to start a brand,” says Mr. Miziolek, “forcing people to comply with rules that they’re not very excited about.”

With the caveat that it would have to be managed well to actually succeed, he says increased recognition in the global food market could lead to more stable and solid revenue for the companies that enroll in a national branding program.

“If done correctly, and all of the organizations and producers were managed properly, we could establish ourselves in the global market place as a high-quality exporter of various types of food products,” says Mr. Miziolek.

A 'lofty goal'

“But,” he adds, “it’s a pretty lofty goal, to be honest.”
