So today I'm going to talk about
five maybe six steps to
establishing your personal brand
Listen, every one of us has a personal brand. You may be thinking. Hey, I'm not working on my personal brand right now
But listen, you have one whether you're controlling it or not. I
would like for you to be more intentional about
Controlling your brand. So we're gonna talk about ways again that you can establish your personal brand and
Make sure you are making the most use of it
So number one is you need to know your story. Yes
I know that you guys thought I was gonna talk about something like, you know
Making sure you get the right colors or making sure you have the right look
Listen before we get to all of that. You've got to know the inside
You have to know what it is that has made you who you are and what is special about you?
So when you know your story you're able to effectively tell people your story
You know what differentiates you you know?
What's special about you so know your story what has made you who you are today? And
Why you are the way you are and be comfortable and confident in that?
Know yourself when you know your story you're able to beat authentic
Because you know that all the experiences good or bad have made you who you are today
So know your story when you're looking to really establish your personal brand
number two
you need to
begin with the end in mind
So, yes you think about who is it that I really want to be?
Is it that I you know, this sounds kind of morbid but this has really helped me with establishing my personal brand
Going to a funeral and I I was listening to what it is
That some of the comments that they were making about the the woman who had passed away
And there were remarkable comments and I thought about man. What are they going to say about me when I die?
What is the legacy that I'm gonna leave behind? What is it that I did enough of that?
people will comment on that when I
pass away
If you think like that, although I know it sounds morbid. But if you think like that with the beginning the end and mind
you think about am I leaving that along the way and I'm leaving enough of what it is that I
Would want to be known for what I would want people to say about me
That it easily would roll off people's lips at the end
so think about what you want that to be what what is it that you want people to say and remember about you and
Is it public enough? Are you doing it enough?
Are you doing it consistently and we're gonna get to consistency because that is the seal the deal thing
when it comes to
establishing your personal brand
Number three, you need to know kind of what I was saying about
Knowing your story. You need to know what differentiates you you need to know
What sets you apart? What makes you special?
What is your expertise and you may be thinking? I don't have an expertise
I guarantee you you do there's something that you're better at than the person next door
You may not be at the level that you want and that's okay
You're speaking to if you're doing this for your business you're speaking to that audience that may not be there yet
so
Know what sets you apart know what differentiates you know what you're really good at what you can say
I am an expert in this area
because I
The next point, I think it's number four is
Whatever you are for your personal brand take it to the next level. I
Guarantee you you're not doing enough of it to make an impact
And if you're going to really work on your personal brand, I want you to take those two or three things
Or maybe if it's just one thing that you're really good at and I want you to go hard at it
That means I want you to read about it speak about it
post about it
Talk about it
make it something that you live breathe eat sleep and
Again, even if it's two or three things or if it's just one take it to the next level
If you want to attach a color to it if you want to attach the hashtag to it
Whatever you want to do
Think about it meditate on it how you can take it to the next level?
But identify those things that set you apart that you're good at and think about how you can
Amplify it for your personal brand
number five, I believe we're at number five is I want you to be
Actually before I go to that one I meant end with that one so number five is
Know what you bring to the table. So that's very similar to knowing what your expertise is
And knowing what differentiates you but bringing it to the table is
putting your brand in living form
What can you do?
to
Package your brand and make it something that you bring to the table
Bring it to the table
You can offer it as a gift to the world as a gift at the table
Okay, so think about that think about it again
Really don't make it complicated
There are things that you are good at that are very simple and you might think that's nothing
I've always known how to do that. I've always known how to do hair. I've always known how to dress
I've always been a good listener think about those things and think about again how you put pull that into your story
Set yourself apart with it and offer it to the world and bring it to the table. Okay?
And then finally, I want you to be consistent
Yes, that is where most people mess up with their personal branding
They are not consistent. I
Have a personal belief and a lot of people are not gonna agree with me on this and that's okay
Leave the comments below or feel free to email
Me about it. I don't mind we can have a discussion about it, but
over a certain age I am
NOT a big fan of
Changing your hairstyle in your look
every other day
because people if you're establishing your brand, they don't quite know what to expect from you and
Consistency is very important when you're establishing your personal brand
People want to trust that. You know what you're talking about that you know what you're doing that you are
Who you say you are now I have this discussion with someone and they said well
What if the personal brand is that I come with a different hairstyle every day
Okay, so maybe you're a hair stylist and you that's your thing every week. You're gonna have a new hairstyle and that is your grant
At least stay
Find something consistent about that whether it's a color that she used that she makes yourself pop
it's a genre of
The way you dress a specific style
something find something
Consistent about you and your brand and you pull it and push it out every single time it never fails
so
consistency is
important and even when it comes to your social media
Again, how you show up in the room the things that she discussed this things that you offer to the table? Okay
