Build a Brand That Matters · Dr Alex George

If any of these sound familiar...

You're in the right place.

You've got the expertise - you just don't know how to be found.
Maybe you're a therapist, a doctor, a coach, a specialist, or an expert in another field. You don't want to be an influencer, and social media feels overwhelming. But if you don't put yourself out there, the people you could help will never find you.
You don't know where to start.
The idea has been ruminating for years, and what's missing is the order - what to do first, and how to go about it. There's so much noise around starting a brand, and it gets confusing.
There's only so far you can go on your own.
Perhaps you've already built something, whether it's an Instagram page, a Substack, LinkedIn, maybe even TikTok. You've been posting on it a bit, but you don't really know where to go next.
You don't want to lose yourself doing it.
You've seen what chasing the algorithm can do, and you want to stay authentic to yourself and your purpose.

Meet Dr Alex

Helping people has always been the point.

Hi, I'm Alex. I'm a doctor, a Sunday Times bestselling author, a broadcaster and an entrepreneur. But before any of that, I was just a doctor who loved helping people.

My mental health work has taken me from NHS wards to 10 Downing Street. I spent four years as the UK's Youth Mental Health Ambassador, working with government and YoungMinds to improve mental health support in schools and secure funding for early support hubs. That campaigning turned into real, practical support for young people, and it's the work I'm most proud of.

Alongside it, I've built a seven-figure business across publishing, podcasts, broadcasting and brand partnerships, working with brands like Head & Shoulders, La Roche-Posay and Lloyds Bank, with a brilliant team around me. And here's what I've learned along the way: a clear purpose doesn't hold a business back. It's the reason the opportunities, the income and the lasting relationships came at all.

And that's what this course is - everything I've learned over eight years of doing it, mistakes included. It goes from finding your voice, building trust and growing a team, to making the money decisions that turn an idea into a business. I'll be alongside you while you build something you're genuinely proud of, and I hope you enjoy doing it as much as I do.

Inside the course and community

A six-module course breaking down where to start, right through to how you grow, monetise and scale a team, step by step. Six months of community access is included too, so you have people supporting you along the way.

01Start where you actually areAvailable straight away+

The full story of how I came out of reality TV with a million followers and no plan. How I turned down the "easy money" and chose to build around what I actually cared about instead.

Then an honest look at where you're starting from - your platforms, your audience, your goals, and what success looks like for you rather than anyone else.

You'll leave with: a clear starting point instead of a vague pressure to grow.

02Purpose firstAvailable straight away+

What do you stand for? What would you talk about even if nobody was listening? What experience have you lived that most people in your space haven't?

This is the work most people skip because they're in a rush to get to the tactics. It's also the work that makes the tactics actually work, and it's where your brand starts becoming yours.

You'll leave with: a clear answer to why you, why this, and where it's going.

03Build the right audienceReleased 5 October+

Followers and community are different things - a follower scrolls past, a community member trusts you, comes back and tells someone else.

You'll get clear on the actual person on the other side of the screen, choose one or two platforms on purpose, and learn the two kinds of content that every brand needs - the kind that brings new people in, and the kind that makes them stay.

You'll leave with: an audience strategy built on relevance and trust rather than posting everywhere and hoping.

04The business behind the brandReleased 5 October+

In this module we'll go through how the money actually works. This includes brand deals, products, courses, books, podcasts, speaking, coaching and the community. We'll talk about what each one pays and what each one really costs, and figure out where you fit right now.

We'll discuss pricing and negotiation, when to bring in a manager or agent, and how to say no to the deals that will cost you your audience's trust. The boring stuff matters too - we'll talk about the accounting, the company structure and the outgoings.

You'll leave with: a monetisation plan that builds your credibility instead of spending it.

05Grow without losing yourselfReleased 12 October+

This is the part most people won't talk about - criticism, comparison, the pressure to be a brand 24 hours a day, and what it takes to still want this in five years.

We'll talk about boundaries, dealing with trolls, and protecting the person behind the brand.

You'll leave with: an approach you can actually sustain.

06What comes nextReleased 12 October+

This is where the course ends, but building your brand doesn't. You'll finish with a clear plan and a community to build alongside, which is where the real questions get answered as they come up.

You'll leave with: a clear next chapter rather than another completed course sitting in a dashboard.

+Six months' community accessAvailable straight away+

The beauty of being part of the community is that if there are 100 people in the group and each person shares one insight a week, that's 100 insights. For every one thing you share, you get 99 things back.

You'll also get a live Q&A with me every month, where you bring your real questions and the decisions you're actually facing, as well as support from the community itself - people building at the same time, at different stages, building momentum together.

This works even if you're not starting from the "perfect" place.

If you...

...barely have an audience.
Good - you'll build the right one from the start.
...already have an audience.
Great - we can either work together to build it, or reshape it around where you're actually going (I've done exactly that).
...are an expert, not an influencer.
That's perfect - it's exactly who this is for, and your expertise is the advantage.
...find social media overwhelming.
Don't worry - I'll walk you through it. You'll stick to one or two platforms on purpose and give yourself permission to ignore the rest.
...have posted before and it stung.
There's a whole module in this course covering criticism, confidence and boundaries, which will walk you through exactly this.
...have a modest version of success in mind.
That's totally okay - you build whatever version of success makes sense to you.

Questions, answered.

When do I get access?

Straight away - you'll get access to modules one and two the moment you join, along with the community. Modules three and four unlock on 5 October, and five and six on 12 October. That way you have time to actually do the work, rather than drowning in six modules on day one.

I'm a therapist, coach or practitioner rather than a creator. Is this for me?

Yes, you're in good company - experts building a brand around what they know, rather than full-time content creators, are exactly who this course is for.

Do I need an existing following?

No. The course starts you off from the very beginning, thinking about your purpose before you even think about your following.

What if I've already got a following? Can this help me?

Yes. I started with an audience that followed me from reality TV, and I reshaped it into a clearly defined brand where people know exactly what I stand for. If you've got a following already, the course helps you do the same: sharpen what you're known for, deepen the trust, and turn your audience into a business.

What if I don't know my purpose yet?

Don't worry, there's a module fully dedicated to this. You're not expected to arrive with the answer.

How long does community access last?

Six months is included in the price, starting the day you join, and you'll have lifetime access to the course itself. You'll also be able to continue as part of the community beyond the six months if you'd like to.

Can I split the payment?

Yes - you can join with two payments of £205, one today and one a month from now. You'll find the link just under the join button in the pricing section, and you get full access from the first payment.

What if the algorithm changes?

It will, it changes all the time. That's exactly why the whole approach is built on the things that don't move when platforms do.

Build a brand that pays because of what it stands for
