I’ve been enjoying Bret Simmons’ series about personal branding lately. In a series of posts he covers why personal branding is so important (The Google Background Check), how to get started (Personal Branding: Some Simple First Steps), and what you’re trying to accomplish – that is, to show that you Consistently Contribute Value, as well as many other topics.

The Web offers all of us an incredible opportunity to get the word out about who we are and how we can help others solve problems that matter to them.  That’s your personal brand.  Personal branding can help you in your job search if you are between jobs or help you remain more flexible in your current job.  Getting good at personal branding is easy, but it will take commitment on your part.

I was happy to see that I’d already done a few of the steps, but there are lots more for me to follow. How are you doing on your personal brand? Leave me a comment to let me know.
