I deconstruct world-class brands to help build your brand. ✈️ Chief Brander @ eBrandBuilders | 📘 Amazon Best Seller | 🎙️  Host @ eBrandCast

Hi! I am Neil, founder of eBrandBuilders (eBB) with a mission to help young but successful companies into beloved brands.

After completing a BComm and an Ivey MBA in eLeadership, I progressed through the corporate ranks – worked on the Live Richly brand for Citibank, launched the ICICI Brand in Canada, managed a $100M insurance portfolio for Canadian Tire Financial Services, and extended the Desjardins banking brand nationally.

In 2012, I resigned to forge my own path in eCommerce. And quickly failed. Twice. It was then I reached back into my roots, and rigorously applied my corporate branding experience to analyze the top 200 DTC brands. 

From this, I distilled the 7C’s of branding, a process that helped me launch 3 DTC businesses in the health beauty space and had a bonafide exit.  

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR BRANDING PROCESS:
🔷 "It gives you the tools you will need to dig deep and create an authentic brand that will stand out and stand the test of time”
🔷 "A tour de force on building ecommerce business(es) in the 2020s"
🔷 "In a space that can sometimes feel saturated where you see the same material from one person to another this was rare and brilliant"
🔷 "As an eCommerce consultant, I gained a much better understanding of how to convey the value of more intentional branding to clients!!!"

The exit further formed the cornerstone of my next venture, eBrandBuilders - where my mission is to deconstruct world class brands to help build your brand step-by-step. 

eBrandBuilders is for you if you are a:

◾ Product hustler. Day to day, you’re absorbed in chasing the magic-bullet solutions toted by gurus online
◾ New business owner. And want to build a solid foundation from the start
◾ Brick-and-mortar brand leader. You’d like to emulate the success of newer entrants into your space
◾ Go-getter. You crave the education, direction, and support to build a highly successful DTC business

Staff Accountant

I used to play with numbers. Now I play with toys.

Twelve years in public accounting came to a halt when the pandemic hit and I found myself running a firm from home in tax season while watching two toddlers. Burn-out and depressed from this marathon, I had to leave the accounting world behind as I could no longer serve my clients while changing diapers and making snacks.

While trying to keep my kids entertained so I could work (without relying solely on screens), I started to pay more attention to the toys in our house and how many of them were just not keeping my kids engaged for more than five minutes. Beyond that, some broke right away, or were surface-wash only, or had a ton of pieces that didn’t come with storage. So I started to really think about classic toys and what kept me entertained as a kid and what toys I want in my house as a parent.

So I got thinking and designed a toy. It is an eleven-piece play couch made up of all sorts of  cushion shapes to be built into a fort, a slide, a tunnel, a tea party, an obstacle course and more. By having toys in our house that do more, we can have fewer toys, less clutter and find more happiness in our lives.
