  • Cinematic image of Colin Indermaur sitting in downtown Chicago with soft lighting and a glass-textured overlay reading: “What do people remember when they think of you?” This post is part of Colin’s personal branding series, exploring perception, storytelling, and the emotional impact behind creative identity. It highlights the idea that personal branding is not about visibility, but memorability — how your visuals, tone, and consistency shape how others perceive you. The design features a minimal, modern glass aesthetic inspired by Colin’s visual identity across his website and content. The post invites readers to reflect on how they appear online and what emotions or impressions they leave behind. Colin Indermaur, a creative director and storyteller, uses this post to inspire entrepreneurs, creators, and professionals to build brands rooted in meaning, trust, and emotional connection rather than surface-level attention.

Your personal brand isn’t just who you are - it’s what
stays with people after the conversation ends, after they scroll past, after they close the tab.

It’s the feeling you leave behind.

Because every time you show up - whether it’s online, on a call, or through your work - you’re designing perception.
You’re shaping the version of yourself that lives in someone else’s mind.

You don’t build a strong brand by showing everything you do.
You build it by being intentional about what people remember.

The words you use.
The visuals you choose.
The tone, the rhythm, the consistency.
They all add up to one story - your story.

The truth is: people don’t buy what you do, they buy what they feel about you.
And the ones who know how to connect through emotion, not just presentation, are the ones who stand out.

That’s what storytelling does.
It turns presence into connection.
And connection into trust.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not about being known by everyone -
it’s about being remembered by the right ones.
