Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Desirae Benson . We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Alright, Desirae thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. What do you think it takes to be successful?
Success can mean different things to different people, but I’ll break it down into seven key factors that contribute to my personal success:
1. Passion and Drive: Having genuine enthusiasm and passion for what I do fuels my motivation and keeps me focused on my goals. It also helps me persevere through challenges and setbacks.
2. Hard Work and Discipline: Success often requires a strong work ethic and the ability to stay disciplined and committed to your tasks and goals. Putting in the necessary effort and consistently taking action is crucial.
3. Continuous Learning and Growth: Successful individuals recognize the importance of ongoing learning and personal development. I frequently seek out opportunities to expand my knowledge, skills, and perspectives, which helps me adapt to changing circumstances and stay ahead of the curve.
4. Resilience and Adaptability: Being flexible and resilient in the face of obstacles or failures is vital. The ability to bounce back, learn from mistakes, and adapt to new situations is essential for long-term success.
5. Networking and Building Relationships: Building a strong network of supportive and like-minded individuals can provide valuable connections, opportunities, and support. Collaborating with others and fostering positive relationships has helped me reach my goals faster.
6. Setting and pursuing meaningful goals: Having clear and defined goals gives you direction and purpose. Regularly setting goals and taking steps toward achieving them is a key habit of successful individuals.
7. Positive Mindset and Attitude: Maintaining a positive mindset, even during challenging times, can help you stay motivated, focused, and resilient. This has. most definitely helped me in my business. Believing in yourself and your abilities is essential for overcoming obstacles and achieving success.
Remember, success is a journey, and it’s important to define what success means to you personally—these are personal things that I’ve done that have helped me along the way. It’s not just about external achievements but also about personal growth, fulfillment, and living a life aligned with your values and passions.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I’m an entertainment publicist (which encompasses a lot) as well as a multimedia journalist..
What sets me apart from others is my unique combination of skills, experiences, and personal qualities. I’ve been able to identify and highlight my strengths, as well as the specialized knowledge and expertise that I possess. Additionally, my personality traits, values, and the way I approach challenges and opportunities have also differentiated me from others. Ultimately, it’s been about showcasing my individuality and what makes me stand out in a positive and meaningful way.
Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
Great question! My strong reputation has been built from a combination of factors such as consistently delivering high-quality services, providing excellent customer service, demonstrating expertise and knowledge in my field, networking and building relationships with key industry players, and maintaining a strong online presence through marketing and branding efforts.
It’s also been important for me to continuously learn and adapt to stay ahead of industry trends to meet the evolving needs and expectations of my clients and other people who value what a quality publicist does.
What’s been the best source of new clients for you?
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, it’s been word of mouth. Clients who are happy with what you’re doing for them, will spread the word. The work I put out and share has spoken volumes about who I am and the quality of results I obtain for all of my clients. I’m extremely grateful to be able to fully trust my intuition to guide me, and to have the ability to tap into areas that others have not yet explored. I liken myself to an industry insider who enjoys discovering new things that help me successfully navigate through this wonderful industry.
