Don’t miss this engaging and interactive presentation on Tuesday, March 31, at <location> beginning at <time>. Date: Tuesday, 3/31/09 Location: TBD Length: 20-30 minutes plus Q&A Attendance: 50 estimated OUTLINE You already have a brand and it’s representing you 24x7x365. It’s pretty amazing how complex it is. It includes these (and other) elements: Your IP Name Your Face Your Photo Your Signature Gestures and Facial Expressions Your Resume Your Articles, Posts, Presentations, Books, Videos, Podcasts Your Physical Attributes Facial Expressions How You Carry Yourself Your Tastes Your Appearance The Music You Listen To The Clothes You Wear Your Voice and Body Language Your Proximity Who You Hang Out With Where you Hang out Where You Visit What Associations/Clubs You Belong To Your Decisions What you do with your free time and your work time What you’re known for in terms of thinking an doing Tough decisions you’ve made Your Media Website (own your name?) Blog LinkedIn ZoomInfo Facebook You can’t manage that. Just thinking about being accountable for all of it gives you a headache, doesn’t it? Brand Monitoring Tools Free Addictomatic Google alerts Paid BuzzMetrics Others from that article (send to Ray K on 3/18/09) Your Story How you say who you are, what you do, what outcomes you produce What others say about you the primary source, on who you are, what you do and what you can help others achieve. Your personal is about you and it’s also about setting fair, comfortable expectations for others about you. . re about, and what you can do. Not managing your own brand and your own experience is unconscionable. Attend this month’s AMF event Outline (not for distribution, just for your info): stranger, invisible, friend (fleener) You the person, worker, fashion statement, blogger, expert, friend, networker, (evaluations all around), leave the swiss cheese or fill the holes in yourself. Gotta have a few story starters (the cpa exercise) Rippling water graphic shows the spread (istockphoto) Title: 1) Personal Branding: How to Become an Experience Others Will Rave About, 2) Personal Branding: You’ve Already Got a Brand, Here’s How to Manage It, 3) Personal Branding: It’s more complicated than ever before...but the way to get control of your own brand and amplify it stay the same. There’s more news that others say about you than what you say about yourself. Personal branding From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Personal branding is the process whereby people and their careers are marked as brands.[1] It has been noted that while previous self-help management techniques were about self-improvement, the personal branding concept suggests instead that success comes from self-packaging.[2] The term is thought to have been first used and discussed in an 1997 article by Tom Peters.[3] Personal branding often involves the application of one's name to various products. For example, celebrity real-estate mogul Donald Trump uses his last name extensively on his buildings and on the products he endorses (e.g., Trump Steaks). You are all these facets: Appearance Reputation First impression On-line presence (linkedin, blog, website, zoominfo profile, facebook) Short list Your picture(s) Your taste Kids perspective Carry Appearance Music Carry Hanging with You even have to worry about your avatar... (photo of kickin’ it in space) Expert Your information trail Your handshake, greeting, voice, talents Your impression of yourself = others’ impressions of you It’s not about thinking about yourself, it’s about understanding how others think about you What you can control and what you can’t Protecting your brand on-line, still in the early days Reputation management tools Buzzlogic.com http://www.radian6.com/cms/solution http://www.cymfony.com/Solutions/Our-Approach/Orchestra-Platform http://www.brandseye.com/ http://www.reputationdefender.com/ http://www.sentimentmetrics.com/ Free Googleantlytics Best regards, Mike Wittenstein, The Authority on Customer Experience Speaker.

  3. Everything is changing Things won’t go back to the way they were We know we have to change But, we just don’t know what—or how The one group that does know is our customer! If we listen closely enough and truly hear what their unmet needs are, we’ll have the information we need to retool, repackage, outthink, and outlast. (Survivor ;-) It’s from this point that you get the best info about what your story should be. Having a new story doesn't require a new you, just a new way of thinking about you. What you know, what you are capable of, the way you do things, and how you create value. People want to know you. A story just makes it easier.
  4. Finding your story isn’t something to fear. It actually sets you free. Being your story is when this whole personal branding thing gets to be lots of fun. There’s one thing to focus on to get this whole process started. And that’s how you you’re different--and better--than everyone else on the planet. In some way, you are unique and you are #1 at that kind of uniqueness.
  5. Overview of how these three elements tie together Your story IS your business
