More about the brand archetypes Hero

Hero brands are known for their goal-oriented culture and achievement-focused management style. They set high expectations and hold their team members accountable for reaching their potential. In return, they offer motivation and encouragement to help their team succeed.

The Hero brand is characterized by clear goals and roles, and team members understand the importance of their contribution to the team's success. Larger brands have dedicated leaders who keep the team focused and inspired. As a solopreneur hero brand it's important that you take that role for yourself (and your team).

However, it is important for owners of a Hero brand to be mindful of creating too much internal competition or rivalry with competitors, because it will lead to unhealthy behavior and burnout.

Brand personality
The Hero brand's voice is energetic and enthusiastic, and it is meant to motivate and inspire. It is confident, strong, and fast-paced, and the language used is positive and supportive. The Hero brand takes the moral high ground and reflects its values and principles. It is not degrading or negative, but it may be loud in order to be heard.

The Hero brand wants to make the world a better place by being the best it can be and inspiring others to do the same.

They are not focused on nurturing or consoling their customers (as the nurturer does) but rather on challenging them to improve. When creating the brand experience, it is important to consider all customer touchpoints, including online, over the phone, in person, and through email.

Each of these is an opportunity to connect with the customer, and mapping out the customer journey can help identify opportunities to incorporate experiences that engage the senses.

Susanne Höhne I did the test and found out that I am a great mix between local hero and visionary dreamer. I implemented the tips for this business type and it worked great. So I did my first outsourcing projects to concentrate more on marketing than creating new stuff (which I love to do all the time) and Voilà: immediately I reached more sells than ever before. Yeah! 💃

Maria Jurimea In 1 year I have moved more than in the 15 years before. I was very modest with my pricing, but Esther told me to double or triple my prices.

I thought: "That is crazy. No one will buy at those prices."  But my international sales keep coming.  This has given me so much self confidence.

Janka Urbanova  I wanted to stop trying to find it out on my own, that's why I joined you.  And that is when I found myself in the company of so many brave and wonderful women and the support of Esther and her team.
As a result I got new clients, I sold my program and I'm feeling deeply confident.
