30. People will talk about you anyway – wouldn't you like to influence what they say?

Hey, it’s Annemarie - welcome to another 30DaystoDistinction tip where I’ll be sharing 30 tips over the next 30 days as part of our 30DaysToDistinction Challenge to help you become distinguishable, uncopyable and irresistible, so you are THE choice vs just A choice for your ideal client and can continue to bring real change in your sphere of influence with your message and expertise.  This is Tip #30 – wow, we made it!!!  If I was to ask you to define Personal Branding – or your Personal Brand – how would you respond? If you said your Personal Brand is your reputation – you'd be correct.  Personal Branding – or your Personal Brand is not a fad, it’s not a buzzword that some marketers have begun throwing around as the flavor of the day.   In fact, in my former business – a Career Consultancy we were talking about the importance of Personal Branding back in the 2000s. So, it’s NOT a fad at all!  Your Personal Brand is your reputation. It’s what people think about you when your name is mentioned. It’s what people say about you when asked to share their experiences.   And, while you can’t control what people think or say about you, you CAN influence it.  By your actions, your interactions, your conversations, - everything can impact your reputation, your Personal Brand.   Positively. Or negatively.  If you do a Personal Brand audit today – would people think and say the exact things you’d want them to say?   Or are you leaving it to chance.  If you asked 5 people (who knew you well) to describe you in 5 words – would the 5 words they use to describe you be the same?  And, more importantly, are they the 5 words you would want them to use to describe you?   YOUR NEXT STEP:  Are you a coach or consultant who is struggling to stand out online?
