We Create Thought Leaders Through Personal Branding | 150+ Personal Brands Built | Founder & CEO Kurogo

-- DM for Speaking Enquiries --

We turn entrepreneurs into credible thought leaders through personal branding so they can scale their businesses, unlock untapped opportunities and outlast their competition.

If you’re anything like our clients, you’re an expert in your field. One of the best.

But you just don’t seem to have the reputation you deserve.

You want to be the go-to authority in your industry and become an opportunity magnet.

That way you could…

- Generate inbound leads consistently
- Win clients and customers with ease
- Attract media features
- Attract top talent
- Speak on stage

The list is endless.

We help our clients do just that through the power of personal branding, by:

1. Giving them clarity on their brand and positioning them as industry leaders.
2. Blowing up their social profiles and landing them high-profile media features.
3. Helping them convert their new-found reputation into meaningful opportunities and ROI

And having built 300+ personal brands, we’ve got quite good at it, achieving results like these in the process:

🚀 Jack generated 2.5M views and 6 figures in revenue in 90 days with us 
🚀 Joe and Olly generated millions of views and saw a record month
🚀 Guy added 5 figures of pipeline value in a matter of months

🚀 Anna doubled her followers in 1 year
🚀 Debbie generated 11M Views

Your reputation is your biggest asset. Take control of it! 

If you want to see how we could help you build your personal brand, shoot me a dm saying ‘Personal Brand’

If you're not quite ready yet, I post daily content on here showing you how to do it yourself.

Founder

The exec: 20+ yrs experience, industry expert, loved by team

Their profile: looks like a CV from when they applied in 2015

And that’s not trivial either…

Weak profiles cost you opportunities every week.

Worse, people go to competitors who aren’t as good as you.

(Yep, just because their profiles signal more authority).

Here’s the thing:

Your ‘Job Role @ Company’ tagline tells me nothing
Your stock photo cover image is losing interest
Your 3rd person outdates bio is costing authority
Your profile isn’t just a CV anymore.

It’s your personal business card, pitch deck, website and sales page all in one.

I let slip and admitted it to a potential client: 

You won’t track 90% of the work we do for you.

Sure, you’ll see the 10% everyone on LinkedIn is obsessed with:

→ Increased visibility
→ More engagement 
→ Inbound leads 

But your personal brand is 10x more than that. 

→ Nurturing leads from other channels 
→ Generating leads who’ll convert elsewhere
→ Warming prospects in the sales process
→ Build authority to increase perceived value
→ Creating touchpoints for existing leads 
→ Maintaining confidence from current clients
→ Building your employer brand to attract talent
→ Indoctrinating leads into your way of thinking
→ Attracting future partners or investors 
→ Future proofing your career

We all love the inbound leads. 

But reducing a personal brand to just that is stupid.

If you don’t understand that, I’m afraid you don’t understand the modern buyer.

With me? Or disagree?

We're wrapping up our work with a client. 

One of the ones I’m MOST proud of. In 24 months we: 

→ Generated MILLIONS of views 
→ More than TRIPLED their following
→ Earned them a TOP VOICE award 

More importantly: 

We impacted, inspired and influenced thousands of entrepreneurs. 

So often I’ll be told ‘I love the content she’s posting, she’s amazing’

Pretty cool feeling. 

I take 0 credit for this btw. Everything goes to Megan, Liesha, Varun, Jake, Satwik.

Ps. As I was writing this I also realised how mental it is that we’re able to bring 5 people from all sorts of backgrounds and walks of life to create such incredible results for one of the UKs leading entrepreneurs. Love Kurogo - Personal Branding Agency.

Trust is at an all time low. It’s not your fault. 

It’s government, the media and cowboys. 

But it is your problem. Here’s how to rebuild it: 

1. Position yourself as trustworthy

Easiest way to do this: cold hard proof.
Want to be trusted as a leading consultant?
Tell us how many people you’ve helped. 

Not got cold hard proof? 
Work harder to acquire it… 
Just how the game works.

2. Publish content regularly 

LinkedIn is the no.1 place for business owners. 
People trust companies when senior teams post. 
They’re also willing top pay a premium.

(Can’t cover all of this here, but my other posts do)

Ps. Don’t ignore: YouTube & Reddit.

3. Package your expertise

People trust ‘models’ more than raw ‘information’.
Their perceived value is higher.
More memorable = more trusted.

4. Partner with trust people/publications

Some people are already well trusted.
Collaborate with them on content/products.
You’ll gain trust through the Halo Effect.

5. Activate your people 

People are at the heart of all of this, not logos.

82% of customers trust companies more when execs are active on social media.

We’ve build 350+ personal brands now.

The most important thing is this:

It’s not about forging a false impression of yourself. 
It’s about creating a more accurate representation. 

If it’s not backed by a great product and solid proof, it’s pointless.

Want to break free from the 9-to-5 grind?

When I was stuck in the 9-to-5 cycle:

- I felt trapped, exhausted, and unfulfilled.
- The daily grind left me with little time for my family, friends, or personal passions.

I knew there had to be a better way to live—
- A way to achieve financial freedom, flexibility,
- And a more fulfilling lifestyle.

That's when I discovered the power of trading stock options.

I escaped that 9-to-5 grind with it.

Learn how I did it and built a 6-figure income stream from trading.

Reach out to me if:

- You want financial security and independence.
- You're looking to supplement your current income.
- You'd like to build location freedom, time freedom, or both.
- You crave lifestyle improvements and luxury experiences.
- You're interested in options but feeling a little bit skeptical.

I can feel you because I was you when I was in that 9-to-5 cycle.

I'll teach you my method that has:

- Daily ROIs of 30-300%
- Documented win rates of 78-80%

And I can even help you turn your spouse into a believer.

Ready to achieve financial freedom, build a reliable second income, and enjoy a flexible lifestyle?

Great! What are you waiting for?

Reserve your spot in my next course at www.BillFanter.com.

Still skeptical?

I get it. My husband used to be a skeptic, too.

Just send me a DM and we'll grab a few minutes to talk.

Here's Jeff Bezos's 52-second secret to eliminating stress.

(No, it's not being worth $251,000,000,000.)

Bezos:

"Stress primarily comes from not taking action over something that you can have some control over."

Think about that time you:

• Avoided having that tough conversation.
• Put off making that important decision.
• Delayed starting that side business.
• Ignored learning that new skill.

The stress wasn't from the thing itself.
The stress was from avoiding it.

Want to toss and turn at night?

Then watch opportunity pass you by while doing nothing about it.

Want to sleep like a baby?

Take the action you know you need to take.

The most common complaint I receive about my Masterclass is the frustration over the price increases. 

Many people express disappointment that they didn't enroll when it was 50% cheaper.

I want to emphasize that I have dedicated two years, showing up daily here with proof that this skill is golden. 

I trade live every morning 
I share all my charts 
I tell you what I’m buying 
I communicate when I’m selling 
I do a recap of why I took the trade 

172 people showed up to trade live with me this morning and we all crushed it like a bunch of thugs in less than an hour. 🤣

The price for the April class isn’t going to be any cheaper so why not join in January while you can?

"Trading is gambling" aged like milk in 2025.

Retail investors beat Wall Street. 

In April, Trump's tariffs sent the market into freefall. The S&P 500 dropped 5% in a single day.

Hedge funds freaked out and ran for the exits.

And retail investors?

They bought $3 billion in stocks that same day 🤣 

A week later, Trump changed his mind (love the TACO trade), and the S&P jumped 9.5%. 

The people who bought the dip made a killing.
The people who panic-sold locked in their losses.

From Mark Malek, investing chief at Siebert Financial:

"Retail investors have been more right about the market and how to react to a lot of the emotionally driven trades of the year... They’ve been much more accurate in their dealings than my colleagues in the institutional space.”

And that's why regular people like you with Schwab accounts are beating the big banks' fancy AI trading systems.

Wall Street calls you "dumb money."
Financial advisors say it's a scam. 

And the numbers say retail traders won in 2025.

Don't miss out again in 2026.

Today was uneventful. 

I traded live with 134 people, and we executed 3 total trades: 2 winners and 1 break even. 

After the call, I took one more small loss on Apple as the market was stuck in a channel. 

With options, we need volatility and price movement. 

Trading in a channel erodes premiums, and I would even accept price manipulation. 

The good news is that $348 a day adds up to $83,520 a year in extra cash. 

Visit BillFanter.com to join me for the next Masterclass which starts next Monday.

January Masterclass enrollment closes this Sunday.

I'm happy to personally answer any questions you may have.

Student Testimonials

Yesterday marked a special occasion as we celebrated Fraymond’s birthday. 

Nothing beats a great Vegas steakhouse:
- Wedge salads
- New York Strip Steaks
- Lobster Tails
- Mushrooms
- Baked Potatoes
- Cabernet wine for him
- Kettle One vodka with soda for me

The total bill was $546.02, including the tip, and it was a bargain for the experience. 

Understanding how to monetize a skill makes spending feel irrelevant. 

Especially when I could get up this morning and make over $3,500 in under an hour.

This morning, we traded a live with hundreds of participants who successfully executed winning trades that increased by over 50%. 

Skepticism is natural, but consider this: why would 1,200 people remain in my trading community if they weren't seeing financial success? 

It just wouldn’t make any sense… Now would it?

The next master class starts on Monday so I hope you’re enrolled.

I really don’t understand how you can possibly lose at trading.

We teach you everything you need to know 

We trade live daily for you to watch and learn 

We tell you what and when we are buying 

We share when we are selling and taking profits 

We do a trade recap explaining everything in detail

The only thing we can’t do is to control your greed and fear which is why so many traders fail. 

$711 a day for an hour of work isn’t too shabby.  

Now I have the rest of the day to do whatever I want… ready to learn?

Nancy Pelosi always outperforms the stock market - and nobody thinks that’s odd? 

Her portfolio performance has been... let's call it "impressive." 

While the average investor struggles to beat the S&P 500, some politicians seem to have a crystal ball.

Here's what's really happening:
• They set policy for entire industries
• They know what's coming before anyone else
• They can position long or short ahead of announcements
• There are currently ZERO restrictions

The craziest part? 

There's literally software that tracks every single trade from elected officials. Every weekend, you can see exactly what Pelosi, Marjorie Taylor Greene, or any politician bought or sold.

It's not even hidden anymore.

Right now, Congress is debating whether politicians should be allowed to trade at all. 

But until then? It's the wild west.

The uncomfortable truth: This isn't investing. It's legalized insider trading with a government badge.

Meanwhile, regular investors get prosecuted for far less while politicians profit off information that moves entire markets.

Hot take: If you can't beat them, maybe it's time to follow their trades. What's your stance - should politicians be banned from trading stocks?

Retail traders just proved the "smart money" wrong - again.

While institutional fund managers were caught off guard by the tariff announcements in 2025 and failed to buy the dip, guess who stepped up? 

Retail traders.

They're the ones who pushed the market back to new all-time highs while professional fund managers were playing catch-up in Q4.

Here's what this tells us:
• Retail sentiment can move markets more than we think
• Individual investors are becoming more sophisticated
• The "dumb money" narrative is outdated
• Sometimes the crowd gets it right when institutions hesitate

We're about to see fund performance reports for 2025, and I suspect many institutional players underperformed while retail traders who bought the dip came out ahead.

This shift represents a fundamental change in market dynamics. 

Retail traders now have access to the same tools, data, and speed as institutions - and they're not afraid to use them.

The democratization of trading is real, and it's reshaping how markets move.

Come let me show you how this all works.  BillFanter.com

The meme stock phenomenon was back in 2025 - and it's wilder than ever.

We're witnessing something unprecedented: a crypto-friendly administration launching their own memecoins, followed by family members jumping in. 

It's like 2021 all over again, but with a political twist.

Here's what I'm seeing:
• Bitcoin and memecoins are getting institutional backing
• Retail investors are FOMOing into "shitcoins" expecting moon shots
• The same pattern repeats: early birds win, latecomers get burned
• These assets consistently implode after the initial hype

The reality? If you get in at the very beginning, the returns can be incredible. But timing is everything, and most people enter when it's already too late.

The lesson isn't to avoid these opportunities entirely - it's to understand the cycle and manage your risk accordingly.

What's your take on the meme stock revival?
