Hey Raymond if you haven't heard of them check out Chris Do from The Futur and Johnny Cupcakes! I learned so much about branding and taste from Chris and Johnny is the owner of a popular clothing brand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIiPbEdpqhc&t=663s

Where in this path do you believe you're in? It seems to me that maybe once one has gone through this process, they might be able to grow each area in tandem.

Is there a particular stage that you think would be particular challenging? How do you think you would overcome those challenges?

I think I’m various stages depending on the medium / platform!

Feeling quite comfortable writing and sharing on Substack, so I think I’m moreso on the community building phase here. And yeah totally agree, this is not a linear process, everything sorta feeds off each other.

The most challenging part, I think, is developing taste. It’s so easy to get influenced by trends nowadays, I often ask myself if the preferences I have are even genuine anymore? But in order to standout, you have to be unique, and you have to communicate it in an engaging way. Hopefully I’ll be able to do both those things
