Joe Whitbread – Personal Branding: Maximize Your Social Media

SEASON: 1 EPISODE: 31

Episode Overview:

Branding is more than just your logo, slogan, product or service. It’s more than just a business card or a resume. So what is it then? To learn more about personal and professional branding and how to do it right, is my guest, Joe Whitbread.

Guest Bio: 

Joe Whitbread started his career in broadcast journalism and took his first gig as an on-air personality in Grande Prairie, Alberta shortly after graduating from SAIT. Joe moved through the radio industry as a producer, and salesperson, before transitioning to social media when it became apparent this was where businesses would have to be, to be seen. 

As a professional emcee, PA announcer, and voiceover artist, he’s hosted thousands of events in his 30+ year career in the public. Joe is a Dad, an artist, a Calgary Flames hockey fan, and can most often be found on summer days swinging a club on the golf course. “Do what you love, love what you do.”
