Question 1

What is Brand Therapy?

Accepted Answer

Brand Therapy is a diagnostic-first brand strategy process created by Florian Philippe. It turns unclear positioning into a sharp market identity — covering audience definition, purpose, personality, differentiators, and messaging. The process uses the proprietary Focus Star framework and delivers a complete brand system inside a live Notion workspace, including strategy, copy assets, AI brand portraits, and content direction. It is designed for founders, executives, and service providers who want to be known for something specific.

Question 2

Who is Brand Therapy for?

Accepted Answer

Brand Therapy is designed for founders, entrepreneurs, and service providers who have strong expertise but unclear positioning. It is especially effective for B2B founders and executives in the $500K–$5M revenue range who are winning clients through referrals but struggling to communicate their value to a wider market. It also serves credible experts — speakers, consultants, and thought leaders — who want to build authority and visibility around their name.

Question 3

What is the Focus Star framework?

Accepted Answer

The Focus Star is a proprietary five-dimension brand strategy framework developed by Florian Philippe. The five dimensions are: Audience (who specifically you serve), Purpose (why you do the work), DNA (your non-negotiables and operating principles), Personality (how your brand sounds and shows up), and Offering (what you do and the transformation you deliver). When all five dimensions are aligned, the result is a clear, distinctive brand position that attracts the right clients without competing on price.

Question 4

How long does the Brand Therapy process take?

Accepted Answer

The Brand Therapy Blueprint is delivered across 3 to 4 working sessions over approximately two weeks. Sessions happen live inside a private Notion workspace, so the strategy is built collaboratively and visible in real time. The final deliverable — the full Brand Therapy Blueprint — includes positioning strategy, messaging assets, bio, tagline, AI brand portraits, LinkedIn banner, social templates, and content direction.

Question 5

What deliverables do I receive from Brand Therapy?

Accepted Answer

Brand Therapy delivers a complete brand system inside a permanent private Notion workspace. Deliverables include: Focus Star analysis across all five dimensions, brand archetypes with visual references, brand style map, tagline and positioning lines, full professional bio (short and long), AI brand portraits directed to match your visual identity, LinkedIn banner, social post templates, press release framework, and content starting points. The workspace is yours to keep and build from after the sessions end.

Question 6

What is the difference between Brand Therapy and personal branding coaching?

Accepted Answer

Personal branding coaching typically focuses on mindset, confidence, and content habits. Brand Therapy is a strategy process — it produces a documented brand system with specific positioning, messaging, and visual assets. The approach is diagnostic-first: before building anything, the process identifies exactly where the positioning gap is and why. Clients leave with a permanent strategic document and production-ready assets, not just exercises or frameworks to apply on their own.

Question 7

How much does Brand Therapy cost?

Accepted Answer

The Brand Therapy Blueprint is currently available at a founding rate of $700 for the first ten clients. The standard rate is $950. This includes all strategy sessions, the full Notion workspace, all deliverables, and AI brand portraits. A free 20-minute discovery call is available to determine fit before any commitment.

Question 8

What is the Brand Spectrum?

Accepted Answer

The Brand Spectrum is a 1-to-5 positioning framework used in Brand Therapy to determine the right balance between a founder's personal brand and their company brand. A score of 1 means the company brand leads entirely with no founder visibility. A score of 5 means the founder IS the brand — their name and reputation carry the business. Most founder-led companies benefit from a score of 3 or 4, where founder credibility actively supports company growth. Diagnosing the right position on the spectrum is a key part of the Brand Therapy process for companies.

Question 9

Does Brand Therapy use AI tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AI tools are used strategically in the Brand Therapy process, including for AI brand portrait generation that is custom-directed to match each client's visual identity, archetype, and color palette. AI is not used to generate generic output — every portrait and asset is reviewed and directed by Florian Philippe to ensure it is on-brand. The core strategic work — positioning, Focus Star analysis, messaging architecture — is done through live collaborative sessions, not automated.

Question 10

Can Brand Therapy help a company, not just an individual founder?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Brand Therapy offers company-level brand strategy for startups and SMEs in the $500K–$5M revenue range whose brand has not kept pace with their business growth. Company engagements cover positioning and differentiation, brand architecture (how the founder brand and company brand work together), messaging and narrative, go-to-market clarity, and brand audits. The approach is diagnostic-first regardless of whether the client is an individual founder or a leadership team.
