Building personal brands that drive B2B revenue by leveraging live streaming, podcasting and AI | Reveting's WinsDay Host | Fractional CMO | Deconstructing Data Co-Host | Marketing Coach |

Struggling to Close the Trust Gap with Buyers?

You’re putting yourself out there. Posting, maybe even running ads. But something’s still off. There’s no trust, no connection that gets your audience hooked. Maybe imposter syndrome is creeping in, or maybe your marketing isn’t hitting the mark. Or you just need help without the overhead of a marketing team.

Sound familiar? You’re not alone—and that’s where I come in.

ABOUT ME:
I’m Jessie Lizak, CEO of Reveting, and I help B2B professionals build REAL personal brands across ALL the social platforms that matter—LinkedIn™️, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram. But I specialize in LIVESTREAMING because nothing builds trust faster than going live. Whether you’re an exec, marketer, or solopreneur, I’m here to help you build a brand that pulls in loyal customers who TRUST you from day one.

WHAT I DO:

FULL-SERVICE LIVESTREAMING: If going live terrifies you, we’ve got you covered. We handle all the tech and help you go live like a pro, building real-time engagement and trust.

PERSONAL BRANDING ACROSS CHANNELS: LinkedIn™️ is great, but it’s not the only game in town. We help you create a consistent personal brand across LinkedIn™️, TikTok, YouTube, and more.

TAKING UP SPACE PROGRAM: Got imposter syndrome or feel lost in marketing? This program’s your guide to building a personal brand with livestreams, podcasts, and B2B marketing strategies. It’ll give you the confidence to OWN YOUR SPACE online.

WHY LIVESTREAMING?
Because trust is everything. Your buyers need to see you LIVE—no filters. Livestreaming lets you break down barriers and build a connection you can’t get from posts or ads. And guess what? Most of your competitors are too scared to go live. If you can do it (with my help), you’ll already be winning.

WINSDAY:
Every Wednesday, we host WinsDay—a sponsored live show full of sales and marketing insights, guest interviews, and even some fun prizes. It’s where you’ll learn how to ACTUALLY grow your business using livestreaming—and have a good time doing it.

OUR APPROACH:
At Reveting, we’re focused on REAL connections. No fake stuff. We use DATA-DRIVEN STRATEGIES that make sure your brand hits the right audience. And we help you show up AUTHENTICALLY so that trust—and sales—come naturally.

READY TO OWN YOUR SPACE?

Let’s make something REAL together.

First WinsDay of 2026.

And honestly, it feels like the right way to start the year.
Not with trends.
Not with predictions.
But with a real conversation about what actually makes B2B brands get noticed right now.

What makes someone stop scrolling.
What makes them listen.
And what makes them trust what they’re hearing.

Tonight on Reveting's WinsDay, I’m joined by Jennifer Galbraith and Muhammad Moaaz❄️ Nagori.

Jennifer is the founder of Alestra Marketing, Inc. 

She helps brands earn visibility through media, strong storytelling, and smart communication. The kind that builds credibility beyond a single campaign.

Muhammad Moaaz❄️ Nagori, Head of Marketing at ConvergeX Connections and Co-founder at Cloudlead.co.

He works with B2B teams who care about data quality, better targeting, and real conversations at the top of the funnel.

Less guessing. 
More intention.

Here's what we'll be covering tonight:
 → Earned Media Optimization
 → What’s actually working in B2B event marketing right now
 → Story soundbites people remember
 → How psychology really drives attention in B2B sales

If you’re building a B2B brand and want your message to land, not just be seen, this one matters.

Join us on Reveting tonight at 8 pm est.

20 truths about going live on LinkedIn™:

→ 4) You don’t need a huge audience to make it work.
→ 5) Decision-makers actually watch live video.
→ 6) Going live builds trust faster than posts alone.
→ 7) You’ll say things live you’d never write in a caption.
→ 8) Those moments are what people remember.
→ 9) Authority is built in real time, not drafts.
→ 10) One live can outperform weeks of static content.
→ 11) Guests expand your reach without ads.

→ 17) The replay matters more than the live moment.
→ 18) You’ll get clearer the more you show up.
→ 19) Momentum compounds quietly, then suddenly.
→ 20) The hardest part is starting. The rest is rhythm.

Going live isn’t a trend. It’s infrastructure for modern visibility.

Most B2B founders don’t have a content problem.

They have a translation problem.

They know a lot.
They’ve lived the work.
They’ve solved real problems.

But none of that turns into content because it lives only in their head.

So here’s something practical you can steal this week:

Teach ONE thing you already explain to clients. And do it live.

That’s it.

For me, that's showing up every WinsDay on the Reveting page.

Instead of packaging those answers into content ideas, I talk through them live. With other credible guests.

Exactly how I would with a client.

I’ve gone live every week for almost four years now.

Not because it’s trendy.
Not because of the algorithm.
But because livestreaming lets people see how you think, how you diagnose problems, and how you lead conversations.

That’s where trust is built.
Teach it plainly.
Teach it live.
No hype.
No performance.

That’s how you build authority in 2026.

And yes, that’s how revenue follows.

Most marketing tactics fail for one simple reason.

They are launched without a hypothesis.

Cold email.
Paid ads.
Livestreams.
Content calendars.

None of those are strategies.

They are experiments.
Tactics.

And experiments without a hypothesis are just activity.

Marketing works a lot like research. 

My master’s in sociology absolutely influences how I think about this.

Before you deploy a tactic, you should be able to answer a few basic questions.

1. What are we testing
2. Who are we testing it with
3. What outcome would signal success
4. What outcome would tell us to stop or adjust

A real marketing strategy starts with an exploratory question or a hypothesis.

For example, if we are targeting founders who run marketing agencies, then going live on LinkedIn™ twice a month for six months, paired with intentional repurposing, will increase brand awareness, close the trust gap with buyers, and start showing up in inbound conversations.

Before you even start, you define what success looks like.

Success might look like hearing prospects mention the show on sales calls.

It might look like the same people showing up and engaging every week.

It might look like follower growth on your company page.

It might look like more qualified inbound leads.

Each of those outcomes would change how you run the tactic.

If engagement matters most, you optimize for conversation and community.

If leads matter most, you optimize for reach, distribution, and new eyes.

Same tactic.

Different strategy.

Completely different execution.

Marketing is not about doing more things.

It is about knowing what you are testing and why.

When strategy comes first, tactics like livestreaming stop feeling random and start compounding.

People are going to talk about you.

Quietly.
Loudly.
Behind your back.
Sometimes without ever actually knowing you.

Once you put yourself out there, it’s inevitable.

For a long time, that part really got to me.

I’d hear things people said about me. 
About my show. 
About my intentions.
One that hit especially hard was hearing that a well known woman once called my show sexist.

That one shook me.
Because I’ve always identified as a feminist.

I marched. 
I pumped my breasts in office closets.
I built my career while centering women and children, even when it wasn’t convenient.
Even when it cost me.

Part of why I started my own podcast was that I wanted to hear from more women.

There used to be a Wall Street Journal podcast that interviewed successful women. It inspired the sh*t out of me.

When it disappeared, something clicked.

If it doesn’t exist anymore, you build it.

At the time, I was also a CMO trying to convince a CEO to start a podcast. So I went first.

Here’s what I understand now.

When people talk negatively about you, it’s rarely about you.

It’s about what your visibility brings up in them.

The voice they haven’t used.
The risks they didn’t take.
The version of themselves they postponed.

Psychologically, criticism creates a sense of control. “If I label you, I don’t have to look at me.”

That realization changed how I hold it all.
Not because it made the comments disappear.
But because it reframed them.

You don’t trigger people by being perfect.
You trigger them by being real.
By showing up live.
By thinking out loud.
By letting people see you in motion, not packaged.

I’ve made mistakes.
I’ve learned publicly.
I haven’t always gotten it right.
But I’ve been real.
Especially on livestream.
And that kind of visibility will always invite opinions.

If this brought something up for you, sit with it. That reaction is information.

Before you judge someone who’s visible, pause and ask yourself what it’s stirring in you.

We’re all responding from somewhere. Sometimes the work is figuring out where.

I’m sharing this alongside a new image I created in secta.ai.

Being seen isn’t easy. 

But the negative does become noise and the positive takes over. 

Energy flows where the mind goes. 

Don't let anyone steal your peace.

Do you still need a dashboard if AI can just tell you what to do?

That’s one of the bold ideas David Finkelstein and me explored with Tom Firth on Deconstructing Data.

Tom is the Co-founder of Cotera and a builder at the frontier of AI-driven business ops.

We talked about:
→ Replacing static dashboards with decision-making agents
→ Why most AI tools still need a real CRM behind the scenes
→ The biggest mistake startups make when rolling out AI
→ Data readiness: the real challenge behind automation

Loved this conversation, especially the part about prompt engineering versus actual strategy. Don’t miss it.

How to Prepare Business Data for Automation and Smarter Decisions

It’s WinsDay, and we’re live tonight.

Come on out!! 

8-9 PM EST.

Leadership rarely follows a straight line. 

Sometimes it’s shaped by loss, responsibility, and the decision to step forward when there’s no playbook.

In this upcoming WinsDay conversation, we’re joined by Andi Shaughnessy and Danielle Carter, Co-CEOs and Owners of ExpressIt Delivery, to talk about what it really takes to lead, grow, and scale a business through change.

After the passing of their father, Andi and Danielle stepped into the family business without formal business training and went on to transform ExpressIt into a multi-million dollar, WBENC-certified company operating across multiple states. Along the way, they navigated leadership transitions, operational growth, rebranding, team expansion, and the realities of running a business in a fast-moving industry.

This conversation blends real leadership experience with practical insight for founders, operators, and entrepreneurs who are building in the real world, not just talking about it.

We’ll be diving into:

1. Business & Leadership
2. Women in Business
3. Personal Growth & Resilience
4. Tactical & Inspirational Topics for Entrepreneurs

If you’re interested in leadership development, women-led businesses, scaling operations, or navigating growth through adversity, this episode offers grounded lessons and honest perspectives from leaders who built success by learning on the job and leading with intention.
