Clarity. Confidence. Strategic Expression.
You’ve got the experience, the expertise, and the story. What’s missing is a brand voice that carries it all with precision and presence.
Inside The Authority Lab, you’ll build the strategic foundation that lets you speak, write, pitch, post, and present without hesitation — and without guessing.

“Hersh is one of the rare creative thinkers who gets both message and momentum. He’s helped elevate powerful voices through truth, wit, and the kind of guidance that’s hard to find.”
David Kahan
CEO, Birkenstock Americas
“I’m two-thirds done with my book. My plan is coming together. I’ve got a much stronger following. I’m feeling momentum. I highly recommend Hersh.”
Bob Rauch
The Hotel Guru
“As a founder, entrepreneur, you have lots of ideas. Hersh’s superpower is helping you clarify and crystallize what you want to say to the world. His brand therapy program has been very systematic in drawing that out of me. And he’s just an all-around great guy, really fun to work with. If he’s available, and he can take you on as a client, I would highly recommend working with Hersh.”
— Jesse Hopps
CEO, DemandMetric
“Hersh never really ‘sold’ his services, but I knew we would work together. I really enjoyed his creative process… he was able to pull out nuggets I’d never thought about or been afraid to bring forward, and gave me the courage to bring them forward.”
Deborah Coviello
The Drop In CEO
Meet Your Guide: Hersh Rephun
I’m not here to help you fake authority — I’m here to help you sell the truth… with audacity and purpose.
I’ve spent decades in brand strategy, creative direction, and storytelling across global markets. From running game-changing campaigns to hosting Top 5% Apple podcasts, my work has always centered around one thing: turning clarity into connection.
I founded YES, BRAND BUILDERS™ to help purpose-driven leaders become unmistakable in their space — by aligning their mindset, message, and mission.
My proprietary Brand Voice Guide™ and 4 Pillars of Personal Brand Mastery™ have helped founders, consultants, and executives show up as themselves — not as a character they think the market wants.
