I must admit, I have a few more things I’d like to learn about the subject of branding. So while I’m here helping you, I’m also helping myself. And among the things I’ve learned thus far, this is one nugget I’ve found – there are a number of things you can do to properly introduce yourself or your business to the world.
Are you following? Alright, let’s get going.
My comrade Davidson Toussaint has recently released an e-book regarding personal and commercial branding. Comparatively, the book provides several facets which an entrepreneur or an individual could utilize to potentially explain what they can offer to the world.
While branding is not a new element, particularly in the business world. However, we now give more importance to such feature. There are some specific components associated with brandings such as your image, your social media, and even your behaviors, according to Success Magazine.
It took me some time to finally be able to clarify exactly what I’m good at. This is not something that comes easily. In order to properly brand your skills – as an individual – the first thing you need to do is sit down and come up with all the things that you’re an expert in. At best that’s what I did.
If you have a business, your customers want to know exactly what you are offering on the very first line of your pitch or perhaps your website. Like they call it the 2-minute elevator pitch. It’s quick, concise, and precise. Straight to the point.
But that’s not all when it comes to branding. Everyone has something they’re selling. Whether it’s your skills, your capabilities, your know-how, trust me you have something that others need or could benefit from.
I had to sit down a few weeks ago to re-brand myself. I use to explain to people who I was, but my line was not consistent. It would always change. I guess because I was not convinced of my competences.
But hey, this is why we’re here, right? We all want to get better in the way we present ourselves to the rest of the world.
Now start working on a draft to re-brand yourself and your business.
