Personal Branding Strategist - I build POWERFUL Personal Brands 💫 Coaching, Consulting & Management 💅 Co-founder of Eagles & Pigeons 🦅 A community for people who care about health, wellness & nutrition 🥦 x 🧡

Hey 👋  I'm Alecia 🧡

I spend a lot of my time working Undercoverr. Secretly working behind the scenes to build and manage multiple Personal Brands 🤐 

Here are 3 truths about building a Personal Brand on LinkedIn: 

👉 Content is King but not everyone can create great posts
👉 Running a LinkedIn Personal Brand takes a lot of time and effort
👉 Building a Personal Brand is about creating a community not an impersonal sales page

Many people struggle with these 3 truths, they either: 

🎨 Lack creativity to create consistent content
⏰ Don't have the time to post, engage, respond to DM's while running a business
⬆️ Don't have a strategy for growth and feel like they're wasting their time
🥱 Only talk sales and fail to convert because they haven't built trusted relationships

This is where I come in, I'll help you run and build your personal brands without you having to invest all of your time and into it! 

Oh and btw here are some of my top achievements:

🔥 Built a health and nutrition brand from 0 followers to 14k in 2 weeks 
😎 Transformed corporate boring LinkedIn pages to thriving communities 
📱 Built my own Wellness Newsletter to 4k subscribers
🫶🏽 Secured clients collaborations with Global Brands

I will work with you to BUILD your Personal Brand and if you don't have the time to do everything yourself, I will MANAGE it for you. 

You'll have consistent content, a clear strategy, and a thriving community and business. 

So if you'd like to work with me then drop me a DM 📥

🧡

I've invested around £12k in 8 businesses that I've found through LinkedIn. *pretend laughs in 180 BPM*🫀😩😭


This is what I've spent my money on:

😇 VA Service
🔢 Accountant
💪 Fitness coach
🇪🇸 Spanish teacher
🎨 Graphic Designer
🌟 Agency Coaching
💫 Business coaching
🛠 An Operations Partner

Every business/founder has a personal brand.

I've either approached them or they've messaged and spoken to me like an actual human being.

Do you know who I've never invested in?

Someone who would like to "connect" then started an entire automated conversation with themselves in my DM's.

Someone who would like to "bump up" their message to the top of my inbox. *cringes in AI*

Someone who would like to "gently remind me" that they've aggressively sent me 5 automated messages in 4 minutes that I haven't responded to.

Someone who would like to help me "get 492 inbound leads a month" by sending me cold messages. Make it make sense!

This is why your personal brand matters and why content is King & Queen 👑

Because we are more likely to invest in someone that we know and respect (content) and who speaks to us like an actual human being (a genuine conversation in the DM's).

Simple.

#JustBumpingThisPostUpToTheTopOfYourFeed 

Alecia Porter-Bent

About 8 months ago, I was diagnosed with OCD.

The symptoms have been there for years.

I ignored them because, tbh, it was easier to pretend that nothing was wrong.

But I always heard people say:

'Why are you so obsessive?'
'How do you have so much energy?'
'Why do you keep doing the same thing over again?' (compulsions)

I used to take those questions personally.

Now, I realise it's how I am wired.

I also have a super Type A personality, which means that I push myself to extreme limits and always give my best.

Without this personality, anxiety, and OCD, I probably wouldn't have my businesses. No joke.

At the same time, I wouldn't have to constantly manage burnout and depressive symptoms.

I'm realising more and more that business isn't even about business. It's about learning about yourself, mindset, and in some ways, it's like therapy.

So if you're like me, showing up with a disorder, know that, that's your leverage.

Your brain, your wiring makes you completely unique.

So forget about the judgmental comments and holding back who you REALLY are.

Show up as yourself, there's no one else like you. 

🧡 

"Hey Alecia, I've never written a post on LinkedIn, but every 2 weeks, I'm going to ask you why I'm not getting the same results as Gary Vee."

*sighs in contract termination 😩*

While I loved playing the sims as a child and seeing José, my 15-year-old teenage character, spin around like Michael Jackson and suddenly transform into José, a 24-year-old man with muscles, that's not how the real world works.

Everything takes time. That's why autobiographies are long and don't say:

Chapter 1: "It all started when I posted 10 posts on LinkedIn. I made £50 million in 3 days and retired. The end."

Illogical comparisons are killing progress.

I've had brand new clients ask me why they're not getting the same results as me.

Even though behind my personal brand and Ltd. company lies:

- 600+ written posts for myself and clients
- Years of showing up on different platforms
- 200+ physical networking events attended by me
- Regular investments in my business and my brand
- Consistency even when my audience was nonexistent
- Hours of engaging in the DM's and attending way too many 'virtual coffees'

Nothing comes easy, and creating organic content requires a long-term vision.

So, stop focusing on days, focus on years instead.

Fall in love with the journey, rather than the outcome.

Comparison will keep you in the starting blocks.

But it's your patience that will get you to the finish line.

🧡 

I break all of the rules and listen to no one because, in 6 months, everything on social media will be different.

6 months ago, LinkedIn was full of 190-page carousels and people pretending to be experts on topics they had no idea about. Oh wait? It still is, okay, my bad.

12 months ago, TikTok was safe and sound at home, playing in its diapers and learning how to walk, we NEVER thought that it would leave us. EVER!

18 months ago, Instagram showed us recent content rather than viral posts that were posted 47 months ago.

108 months ago, millennials left Facebook and decided never to return again, leaving their parents, aunties, uncles, and grandparents to talk about their day, check adverts, and catch up on Karen's divorce proceedings.

The fact of the matter is, things are always changing. Social media and content creation are all about adapting and experimenting.

And knowing when to leave a platform because Tom from Myspace and his whiteboard just aren't making the cut anymore.

If you're in social media, then you need tools that adapt as quickly as the industry, and that's why Publer beats everyone!!!

Meta said no to using 3rd party social media management and scheduling tools in Facebook Groups, and they said: "Don't worry, we've got you! Use our push notifications instead." Same results, just done in a different way.

Being successful on social media requires much MORE than posting content.

And if you don't adapt, you die. (kinda, well, not literally, obvs).

Remember 4 years ago when LinkedIn was all corporate posts, and we all thought tagging was the way to better reach 😂🤣

I say 4 years ago, but I still see posts written like this... 


'It was an absolute pleasure working with @Namsung this morning, they politely showed us around their @HQ and it was impressively, monumentally, and overwhelmingly amazing.

At lunchtime, @Dora and I spent the day taking a brisk walk around Manchester in order to find her missing backpack.

Later on, we attended the office, where we were met by our extraordinary colleagues @anna @dean @ben @peter @farah @steve and @paul. I won't tag everyone right now, but I will tag the rest of their names at the end of this very boring post.

It is such a privilege and honour to work for this @company as I mention in every single post. I cannot thank them enough for allowing me to work for them, even though I am underpaid and I haven't had a pay rise in 3 years.

Anyway, I digress.

Later on, I went to @tesco and saw @lindsay behind the till, asked how her day had been going. She said “stupendous.” I laughed as I packed my bag for life.

I could end it here, but I really want you to see how productive my day has been. So I'll add...

What a productive and fulfilling day!

#NextBoringPostComingIn3Months

🧡 

My business partner lives 3,637 miles away from me.

It's not ideal.

He's also my boyfriend.

Also not ideal 😂

Our timezones are 5 hours apart.

It's a bloody joke. But who's laughing? I'm not 😳.

Sometimes, it's great, sometimes, it is an absolute mess! 

I work on my 2 businesses full-time. Which means sometimes, I'm drinking pre-made Huel for lunch. Life is bliss.

On the weekends, I work.

My social life is basically messages from Amazon, DPD, & verification codes. So yeah, it's absolutely thriving!!! 💃

People want you to think business is all coffee meetings at Grand Hotels, skipping down main roads and clapping for joy, and travelling to Bora Bora every quarter in Singapore Airlines First Class Suites.

But it's not. 

Balance isn't always there at the beginning, but in order to create balance, you have to start with a bit of imbalance.

It's more like chaos, hard work mixed with a side of tears for extra flavour. It's not easy, actually, it's super damn difficult.

But that's the journey.

So don't worry if your life feels a little chaotic at times, I can assure you that you're not alone.

Things will get better, just give it time.

🧡 

Targeted ads are becoming a joke. I can think of a product, and 5 secs later, it's in my Instagram feed.

They steal my thoughts.

Listen to my private conversations.

They know me better than I know myself. *cries in Alecia Porter-Bent 😭 *

Then they have the audacity to show up at the perfect time.

You just have to think about a product, and BAM, there it is, dancing away between Rachel's engagement announcement and Beyoncé's hair washing video.

They might as well say:

"Hey, Alecia, the child of Andrea, born on Sunday, June 13th, at 6:18 p.m. I have the eyebrow pencil that you were thinking about buying 1.42 seconds ago. It's in the basket just hit purchase. I already know it's in your budget because, I checked your Monzo account 3 seconds ago.'

With all of that effort that targeted ads go through to steal our data, thoughts and convert us into paying customers.

I just cannot comprehend how someone in their right mind uses an AI automation tool to send a robotic initial message on LinkedIn with a 3 page pdf document to get us to buy into their services.

No connection. No relationship. No stolen thoughts.

Then they have the audacity to follow up with: 'Let's book a 30 min call to discuss this further.'

No, thanks, Andrew.

Meta ads are willing to steal our inner thoughts, break data protection laws, and this is what you come up with?

PLEASE.
