How an entrepreneur from Brazil conquered 31 countries by teaching the secrets of personal branding
EXAME
December 11, 2024
Daniela Viek, founder of YouBrand.Company, achieved seven-figure revenues thanks to her total dedication to studying personal branding.
The term personal branding was described by American author Tom Peters in 1997. A few years later, in 2004, when she graduated in public relations, Daniela Viek from Santa Catarina had her first client in the field, a teacher, writer and speaker. “I came across a book called 'Be Your Own Public Relations Professional'. I believe it was already an insight into what the future would be like”, she recalls.
Despite having also worked in public relations, Daniela focused her career entirely on personal branding, which works on an individual’s image, identity and reputation. “At a certain point, I realized that people are the driving force behind a business. If they are well positioned, they make things happen. That’s when I focused my career on personal brand management,” she explains. With this help, professionals have more clarity, influence, opportunities, message alignment and market positioning.

Lecture on Personal Branding for Multinational Client Companies
"Over the years, we have had the privilege of taking Personal Branding to global leader multinationals in their market segments, in Brazil and abroad, showing that PB is for small, medium, large and also giants.
This week we went to RS (Rio Grande do Sul). I was invited to train a team of professionals who are being prepared for Leadership and within the agenda, 'Personal Branding - Aligning Personal Brands with the Corporate Brand'.
In my career of almost 20 years and experience in Public Relations, always working strategically with the corporate brand, its reputation and influence among stakeholders makes me look at PB as a driving force associated with an organization's PR strategies and strategic planning.
An integrated human and business vision, this was the experience with BAT - British American Tobacco - it is the largest company in its segment in the world, present in more than 200 countries. It is based in London. The company is the majority shareholder of Brazilian tobacco company Souza Cruz, based in Rio de Janeiro.
In the book “Personal Branding in Companies” I even talk about one of these PB success stories that we experience in practice in the business world. Each corporate program that YOUBRAND promotes is unique and exclusive, we design specifically with the client and their needs in mind, taking the best international practices and always in a process of continuous improvement.
Immense satisfaction serving a leading company like BAT Brasil, which has contributed to the country's development for more than a century... Innovate by placing people at the center of its processes."
