Overview
“Your brand is what people say about you when you are not in the room”, Jeff Bezos, Founder of Amazon. It is, therefore, important that what is said about you is the true reflection of who you are and how you would like to be perceived. Personal branding is the strategic positioning of Brand You. With personal branding, you can proactively and positively influence what people say about you, even when you are not in the room.
When you are the face of your business, building your personal brand is important to differentiate you from competitors. With a personal brand, you can build trust with your audience and position yourself as an expert and thought leader within and beyond your sphere of influence. Today, developing your personal brand is essential for your personal and career advancement. The process of developing a personal brand extends well beyond social media. A personal brand is an asset to be protected and positioned for the long-term.
