Grow Your Personal Brand with Chris Do & Dallen Taylor

Lessons I Learned From Chris Do That Changed How I Lead and Scale My Business

When I joined the Leaders Lead podcast with Chris Do, I was navigating a lot of uncertainty about the future of my business. Simply Edit Pro was still in its early stages, and like many entrepreneurs, I was struggling to find the right path forward, especially when it came to scaling my team.

During the conversation, Chris shared insights that fundamentally reshaped how I approach leadership and business growth. His advice didn’t just change how I manage my editing team—it altered my entire perspective on scaling a business.

Chris Do, as many of you know, is an Emmy award-winning educator and the founder of The Futur. His mission is to teach one billion people how to make a living doing what they love. During our discussion, his wisdom about building brands, managing teams, and scaling effectively resonated with me deeply.

The Power of Delegation

One of the most transformative pieces of advice Chris shared was about the importance of letting go and trusting your team. Like many business owners, I was clinging to too many tasks, believing no one could do them as well as I could. But Chris offered a different perspective:

"If someone else can do the work for less than what you’re being paid, it’s a disservice to your business to keep doing it yourself."

That mindset shift was crucial. I realized that in order to scale Simply Edit Pro and focus on high-level tasks—like integrating AI avatars and voice cloning into our content systems—I had to trust my team to handle the operational work. And that’s exactly what I did.

Building a Brand That’s More Than a Logo

Chris also delved into the difference between creating a logo and building a real brand.

"A brand is a person’s gut feeling about your product or service. It’s not what you say it is—it’s what they say it is," he explained.

This was a revelation for me. While Simply Edit Pro was making strides in the content space, I knew that we had to go beyond just offering services. We needed to craft an experience that resonated emotionally with our clients, ensuring they felt the value of our innovative, AI-powered solutions.

Radical Empathy and Practical Solutions

One of the standout concepts we discussed was practical empathy. Chris emphasized that many businesses get too caught up in their product, forgetting that customers don’t initially care about what you’re selling—they care about how it solves their problem.

At Simply Edit Pro, this idea has become core to our client relationships. We don’t just deliver services; we listen, understand, and create solutions that address real-world challenges. Whether it’s producing high-volume content or integrating cutting-edge technologies like AI avatars into our client’s marketing strategies, we make sure our approach is rooted in empathy and value.

How These Lessons Shaped Simply Edit Pro

Since that conversation, Simply Edit Pro has evolved into something far greater than I initially envisioned. We’ve expanded from working with top real estate brokerages into personal brands and other industries. Our high-volume content systems, powered by AI innovations like voice cloning and AI avatars, are helping businesses scale efficiently and stay ahead of the competition.

Chris's insights helped me understand that leadership is not about doing everything yourself; it's about creating systems that allow your business to grow while maintaining quality and integrity. It’s also about understanding your clients on a deeper level—radical empathy—and solving their pain points in meaningful ways.

Key Takeaways for Your Business:

• Delegate to scale: Letting go of tasks and trusting your team is crucial for growth.

• Build a brand, not just a logo: A brand is about how people feel about your product or service.

• Empathy drives success: Understand your clients’ real needs and tailor your solutions to meet them.
