In today’s climate, it is very important to have a personal brand. It will make you memorable to the people that meet you, and networking is very key no matter what you do for a living, and even outside of work.
I came across two items today that can help you define your personal brand, and possibly even rebrand yourself if necessary:
- CC Chapman’s Managing the Gray podcast on Origins and Self-Brands
- Free eBook – The NXT Big Thing on Personal Branding for Technology Professionals (Don’t let the title throw you off – it really applies to everyone.)
If you don’t know CC Chapman, I suggest that you learn more about him. I’ve had the honor of knowing him for years thanks to my blog, and I regret that we haven’t met in person on my trips to Boston. His Accident Hash podcast is fantastic, he is Vice-President of New Marketing for crayon (which exists in Second Life, something I still need to check out because I don’t conceptually “get it” yet), and he has been making independent films for Random Foo for over 10 years. Like I said, a pretty amazing guy.

This is working really great for me! Internet marketing to me can really be quite easy – you just need to know what you are doing and no blindly do something and hope that tomorrow you will see money. And once again, thank you for sharing!
