WHY SHOULD YOU BUILD YOUR PERSONAL BRAND?
➤ New Clients and a Larger Network of Professional Friends
➤ Speaking and Community Leadership Opportunities
➤ Industry recognition as an influencer, thought leader and expert
➤ Challenging projects to stretch and learn new skills outside your day job
REMEMBER - IT’S SOCIAL
➤ Instead of asking for their business card - ask for their Linkedin, Twitter or preferred social media network profile URL
➤ Share quotes from conference speakers that inspire you and make sure to follow them on social media and reference their social profile
➤ “Like” and leave positive comments on other people’s posts and articles ➤ Thank people who follow you with a personal public or private note - a
quick “thanks for following me, let me know how I can help!” is a great start!

STEP 4: ALIGN WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
Where do you have common ground with your target market?
#WIFM“What’s in it for Me?”
Remember: It’s not About You:
It’s about the Value you Deliver to others.
THEIR INTERESTS:
THEIR VALUES:
(1) their kids and family
(2) their alma mater and college sports teams
(3) their health and personal hobbies
(4) their political views and candidates
(5) their professional skills and challenges
The goal is to learn what traits you can and cannot work within, and then say no to people who want to join your network with traits that don’t align and work well with yours. Leverage common traits to find content to share.
THEIR TRAITS:
THEIR GOALS: (1) Customers’ goals will be to find solutions to their challenges - do you offer a product or service they need?
(2) Event Director’s goals are to find engaging and informed speakers and drive event attendance up.
Identify common values to yours by sharing content that aligns. For example, if you value honesty, share stories about people being honest and experiencing successful outcomes to attract like-valued people to you.
STEP 5: PUTTING IT TOGETHER
How do you use this to create your personal brand?
TALK TO THEM… CARE ABOUT THEM AS MUCH AS IF THEY WERE
IN THE ROOM WITH US NOW.
