OBJECTIVES

BRANDING TO WIN

I’VE GOT A QUESTION!

WHO FEELS LIKE THEY HAVE A

GOOD PERSONAL BRAND?

WHAT IS A PERSONAL BRAND, ANYWAY?

PERSONAL BRANDING IS THE PRACTICE OF PEOPLE MARKETING THEMSELVES AND THEIR CAREERS AS BRANDS.

IT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STANDING OUT AND FITTING IN!

YOUR BRAND SEPERATES YOU

FROM EVERYONE ELSE

1. FIND A BETTER JOB

2. GROW YOURNETWORK

3. GAIN RECOGNITION

4. LAND BETTER CLIENTS

REASONS FOR BUILDING YOUR PERSONAL BRAND

YOUR BRAND COMES DOWN TO 2 THINGS

BRAND IDENTITY

•Your BRAND IDENTITY is EVERYTHING that the outside world SEES from your brand.

• LOGO• SOCIAL MEDIA PROFILES• VIDEOS (AND OTHER CONTENT)• BUSINESS CARDS + OTHER COLLATERAL• PICTURES

•That’s why your BRAND IDENTITY is so important because it creates a feeling and experience for everyone (even your mama)!

IT IS SOOO NOT ABOUT LOOKING CUTE!
