Notice, I didn’t ask you what you do. The Brand Me difference is about discovering the value of who you are and how to package you to a world in awaiting your arrival.

Michael Jordon, Bill Gates, Oprah, McDonald’s, Las Vegas, Apple, U.S.A, and The Marines…all have one thing in common…A strong brand. Whether they are people, products, destinations or organizations they have been able to create more than a logo but an imprint in your heart, mind and memory. This is the power of branding at its best.

Branding 101 is simply a quick overview of why your brand is the only essential you must cultivate, manage and protect to be successful in these shifting times. Branding is for everyone, and I believe that it starts with cultivating and knowing your distinct identity. Here are a few facts to help set the record straight on personal brand creation and the Brand Me methodology.

Isn’t a brand just for products? Not at all, it’s about an experience:

• Demonstration of purpose
• Powerful story
• Unquestionable value
• Unique identity

What is the definition of a brand?
A brand is the representation of your authentic lifetime value.

Is branding relevant for me? ABSOLUTELY…and here is why:

• You are inherently unique (no one will ever have the same fingerprint or “mark” as you)
• You were created to be profitable (work is the universal means to define your value)
• Positioning your distinct identity is what elevates your value
• Your life’s journey authenticates your brand
• Your passion can solve someone’s problem (your customer) and unlock your profit

Why is defining your brand important?

• Commands top dollar for your value
• Motivates and attracts the right customers
• Elevates your unique profile in a cluttered and competitive world

How do I know what my brand mark is? Simple, your brand value is either positive or negative. The ultimate goal is to be:

• Memorable
• Consistent
• Distinct
• Valuable

If you want to know if Brand Me is for you, take a few minutes to ponder these questions.

2. Do people best know you for the value you bring to any situation?
3. Is that value perceived as positive, negative or neutral?
4. How are you leveraging the right marketing tools to distinguish your value?
5. How are you turning your passion into profit right now?
6. Do you have a strategy to market your value in a digital world?
