159: Building a Reputation People Trust with Evan Boyer
Description
What does it take to build a reputation that lasts?
In a world where AI can generate endless content and everyone is competing for attention, it's easy to assume that being more visible is the answer. But as this week's guest explains, visibility without credibility rarely lasts.
This week Sophie is joined by Evan Boyer, founder and CEO of Leaders PR. After nearly 15 years advising global brands including JPMorgan Chase, EY, LG, Lowe's, Panasonic, Red Hat and Volvo Trucks, Evan has built a career helping businesses earn trust, not just attention.
Together they explore why expertise and credibility are built separately, why earned media has never been more valuable and what founders often misunderstand about building a reputation that stands the test of time.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why expertise alone doesn't automatically create credibility
- The difference between earning attention and buying visibility
- Why AI is making trusted voices even more valuable
- What successful PR looks like behind the scenes
- How relationships, consistency and patience shape long term reputation
