A little push, a whole lot of gratitude.

The launch of my first book, SELLING THE TRUTH: A ‘Semoir’ with Insights for Life and Business, begins in January, and in the runup, I’m really enjoying the opportunity to do some more public speaking. Each talk is a chance for audiences to learn about Personal Brand Building, and to apply lessons and insights to their unique journeys in entrepreneurship, brand and business building.

I was honored and excited on November 13 to address The FENG (Financial Executive Networking Group) San Francisco Chapter (Zoom). Thanks Richard Morgin for the invitation and to all who attended my keynote, “What is a Personal Brand, and How Important is it in Today’s Job Market?”

Coming up on December 4 at 12 Noon Eastern I’ll be delivering the Keynote at the SYS Marketing Grant and Global Awards & Networking Event. Keynote Topic: “Building A Brand & Selling the Truth” with Hersh Rephun Breakout Sessions Q&A After the event. Thanks Trish Tonaj for the invitation, and REGISTER HERE if you’d like to attend!

I’m currently appearing on episode #211 of the Keepin’ it Real podcast.

Speaking of the book…it is now available for pre-order, in paperback, hardcover, and personally inscribed hardcover.

About the Book: It’s time to embrace truth as our ally, as our weapon of choice in the game of life, business, and brand-building. In his book, “Selling the Truth: A ‘Semoir’ with Insights for Life and Business,” branding expert, comedian, and copywriter Hersh Rephun brings together two fundamental concepts-selling and being truthful in the process-exploring each in depth, with an acknowledgement of our imperfections.

Some people like it!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ‘Selling The Truth’ is a must-read for anyone seeking insights on marketing, branding, and life itself. Hersh is a rare combination – a creative visionary, a nuts and bolts tactician, a dreamer, a realist, and an engaging “raconteur” in the best sense of the word. He injects humor into all he does and this comes through with a sense of positivity that is much needed in the world today. — David Kahan, CEO, Birkenstock Americas

My online course, Start SELLING THE TRUTH in Life & Business, is available for preorder at an introductory discount.

About the Course: This course combines impactful life lessons, humorous business anecdotes, and insights from Hersh’s career as a stand-up comedian (not in the book!) to present a fresh, post-pandemic perspective on authenticity. You’ll discover how to cultivate a brand voice that resonates—whether for yourself, a product, or an idea—and align it with reality, creating genuine connections. By the end, you’ll understand why truth isn’t just something you tell; it’s what you believe, shaping your success in ways you may never have considered.

Since the course literally became available today, I can offer no endorsements for it. But people really like the book! So here’s another kind endorsement:

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ “This book is a GEM! The many facets of the ‘Nine Knowings’ are priceless. Rephun covers points in life that need to be shared; whether you are looking to improve yourself personally or in business, you will find invaluable precious nuggets throughout this read. Selling the Truth is bejeweled with just that – truth with a lowercase ‘t’ and truth with an uppercase ‘T.’ Rephun shows us that living in that T(t)ruth is the most freeing and natural way to run your life or business and will produce clarity for you on every level. This book is a treasure trove to be stored in your heart.” —Sandy Ciaramitaro, Educator/Author, “The Good Eggs” series

That’s about all I’ve got in me for this Sunday morning, and I’m off to do the really important stuff, and watch my daughter Samantha perform in a local production of ANNIE. That’s the stuff, that’s what it’s all about. You can check out my post on IG, because that’s the only approved image she’d permit me to share :).

In the meantime,

YES! To all good things,

Hersh
