Personal branding consulting, $10K a month, self-reported in 2024: executive visibility

Mashman Consulting Group sells personal branding, reputation architecture, and executive visibility consulting. Its $10K a month was reported by the founder in an interview (not independently verified), as of September 24th, 2024.

What it actually sells

Mashman Consulting Group (MCG) is a private consulting firm specializing in personal branding, reputation architecture, and executive visibility. The firm optimizes, positions, and scales personal brands of emerging to established executives and public figures.

How it charges

The Workplace Audit has pricing available on request. It is a proprietary audit of how employees use their personal brands and, through them, represent their company. Every participant sees their own results, while leadership sees trends, never individuals.

Where customers come from

The Identity Positioning Toolkit provides twelve free tools built from the Manifesto. Identity Quest is live and free to play, with no purchase and no paywall. The Manifesto is listed and sold in Public Relations on Amazon.

What stands out

The firm says its proprietary Identity Positioning methodology fuses identity with intended authority, treating reputation as an asset to be built. Its free brand audit scores five pillars in one composite out of 100, and Identity Quest presents the methodology as a personal-brand simulator.

Where it sits in the data

Mashman Consulting Group's $10K a month is higher than 66% of the 6,604 projects with founder-reported monthly revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $2K. Snapshot: 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.

Currency

All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.

Could you build something like this?

In my view, the buyer would be an executive or public figure who needs personal branding, reputation architecture, and executive visibility consulting. Demand would come from organizations and individuals focused on how a person is positioned and perceived.

In my view, distribution would need to come from a visible content surface, referrals, direct outreach, or partnerships with relevant professional communities. The harder parts are delivering useful judgment across identity, reputation, and visibility, maintaining trust around audit results, and supporting Workplace Audit participants without exposing individual results to leadership.

Verdict: Needs real work.

One thing to take from it

The site combines paid consulting with request-based Workplace Audit pricing, free personal-branding tools, a free simulator, published insights, and an Amazon-listed book.
