Building personal branding for business owners and executives is often a struggle. We know the benefits of building your personal brand.
We also know that business is about relationships, but it’s easy to forget this when you’re so busy running your company. Your success depends on building trust with your customers, partners, and employees. This means that if you want your company to grow, they need to know who you are as a person – not just the CEO or owner of the business.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach for building out your personal brand strategy because every situation is different. But there are some basic steps we can recommend for creating an effective plan – like establishing what kind of personal brand identity will work best for you (and why) and how to use social media effectively in this process (without wasting time).
Ian Moyse shares his experiences in building out his personal brand and the principles we could powerfully leverage.
