  1. A Quick Guide on Building Your Own Professional Brand

  2. Most people on the Internet know Google. More than half of the world is familiar with Facebook.

  3. Nearly the entire population knows Coca Cola. Nike is a very recognizable brand even to people from other parts of the globe.

  4. Google, Facebook, Coca Cola, and Nike all have something in common: they have firmly established brands that makes for easy name recall.

  5. Whether you’re looking for a job or setting up a new company, building your own professional brand is crucial in ensuring success in today’s highly competitive business environment.

  6. Have you noticed how brands like Google are thrown around in conversations like regular words?

  7. You’ve probably heard a couple of people saying, “Want to know something? Just Google it!” Brands like Google have permeated our psyche as “buzzwords” and used as part of normal communication.

  8. In the financial and business world, developing your professional brand into a “buzzword” is a marketing objective.

  9. The goal is to make your brand well-known; like a household name. Creating that “buzz” and making your presence known is the key in making it big in your chosen field of work, industry, or profession.

  10. By making your professional brand become a “buzzword” in conversations, you can increase its marketability.

  11. You want to be in control of your reputation, of your standing, of your professional brand.

  12. Why leave everything to chance? Your brand is all about you, what you do, and what you want to known for.

  13. Thus, you would want to create a professional brand that exudes a positive image.

  14. When building your professional brand, you need to set your mantra; it is the heart and soul of what you want people to perceive you for.

  15. It is the basic building block of your professional brand. Think of your mantra as a personal statement of who you are.

  16. Take Disney, for example; they bring family fun and entertainment.

  17. You also need to consider what appeal you are bringing to your target audience.

  18. Do you want to be known for your efficiency or effectiveness?

  19. Do you want to be perceived as a go-getter? Want to be known as a trendsetter? These perception-modifiers play a huge role in how you are going to sell your professional brand.

  20. You also need to establish a definite description of what you’re offering; it brings clarity to your mantra.

  21. Using the Disney example, the company is selling itself as a place for family-friendly fun and entertainment, as well as creating films and other products, which makes for wonderful childhood memories.

  22. With description, you also need to come up with a definite outline of your function and what you’re offering to your target audience.

  23. For individuals, you might want to define certain traits that are directly related to your chosen field.

  24. Are you a manager-type of person? Do you organize projects?

  25. Are you a great connector of people? For companies, function pertains to what goods or services you are offering to the public.

  26. Now put the mantra, definition, and function together; that makes up your professional brand.

  27. To achieve the best possible results with your professional branding project, you need the help of the experts.

  28. For this reason, it is highly advisable that you get in touch with a financial services recruiting firm.
