Planet Ü · Austin, working worldwide

Everything can be copied,except you.

Planet Ü is an identity, authority and Visibility Hauss for founders whose work has outrun the way the world sees them.

We start with an Identity Session to find your story, then make the portraits, film, interview and published features that carry it.

The gap nobody names

The right rooms don't know you yet.

You've built something real, and the people who meet you get it within fifteen minutes.

Then they look you up, and what they find is a few chapters behind the person they just met: a headshot from an earlier season, a bio written for who you used to be. You get read at half the resolution of your actual work.

Maybe you're good at too many things to say what you do in one sentence. The work is there either way, and it deserves to be seen.

Dauss has elevated my brand to a place that I didn't know was possible, that I had dreamed of, but he brought it to vision… a total dream come true!

The Icon Method

The most powerful personal brands are discoveries.

It usually turns up in the first conversation: a story you almost skipped, or something you said in passing without hearing how powerful it was. We write it down, and everything we make after that is built from it.

01See

The Identity Session

Dauss sits down with you for a long, guided conversation about your history, your convictions and the moments that shaped you, listening for the thread that's hard to see from the inside.

What you leave with
  • A clearer read on what makes you distinct
  • The key insights, written down
  • The creative direction for everything after
02Say

The Icon Statement

We turn what surfaced into language: your Icon Statement, the two sentences the market should know you by, with the story that sits underneath them.

What you leave with
  • Your Icon Statement
  • Your editorial angle
  • A one-page authority map
  • Rewritten bios and profiles
03Show

The evidence

We photograph you, film you, record a LaunchPad episode with you and get you published, so there's proof of who you already are wherever people look.

What you leave with
  • Art-directed portraits and motion
  • A produced interview with short-form edits
  • Published features under your name
04Stand

On your own

By the end, people get a sense of you before you walk in, and it holds without anyone beside you explaining it. If you want us around for the next chapter, that's what Icon Circle is for.

What comes next
  • A review at the end of every engagement
  • One clear place to send people
  • Icon Circle, by application

The work

The version of you that matches the room.

Working with Dauss on my rebrand was incredible from start to finish.

Start a conversation

The part of you that reaches people when you're not in the room.

Who this is for

Built for founders whose reputation already outran their website.

You closed the deal, earned the trust, and left the room as the most impressive person in it. Then they searched your name and found something that undersold you. You've been too busy building the real thing to fix how it looks from the outside. That's the part we take on.

The world deserves to see what I see in you.

It starts with a thirty-minute call and an honest read on whether Planet Ü is the right fit. If another door suits you better, we'll tell you.
