Personal Branding to Achieve First Place

Branding yourself is a major part in internet marketing. Branding your name, along with the online business is very important and is the key to being different. A replicated site will get you replicated results. Branding yourself creates opportunities and generally increases cash flow for those that engage in branding. It is one of the most important marketing tools on the books; about being an expert or learning how to be an expert and then telling everyone about your knowledge. Branding yourself is one of the most important tasks you have as a small business marketer. It is a way of making it clear to potential employers or clients what, in particular, you might be able to do for them. When someone asks you what you do for a living, do you answer with your job title?

Image is everything...believe you are who you say you are, and make it your reality. Offer quality over quantity. Imagine getting a universal online identity score. This score could be based on many factors, such as ratio of positive to negative blog entries written about you, track backs to your blog, subscribers, rank of your name in Google search results, amount of people tagging you, density of your name online. Imagine creating a good looking resume that stands out? Imagine personal name cards so interesting that it the keeps you at the top of somebody’s memory tree?

All of this is entirely possible....Google me, Marilyn Swanson, and find out how this can be accomplished.
