Business Strategy Coach Tip 1 – Personal Branding for Success  

Article by Rae A. Majors-Wildman

One important part of branding is the image you yourself portray. Developing a likeable personal brand is essential for succeeding. If you want to rise to the top of your particular arena, you need to first be able to sell yourself to your potential customers.

Think about it. Would you rather do business with a person who smiles and comes across as friendly or with one who snarls and ignores you? The first impression a potential customer receives is from you. Make it a good one.

How can you accomplish this?

One: Become an expert source.

Two: Become a great communicator. Research shows communications skill is the top determinant for upward social and professional mobility.

Three: Draft a marketing plan for yourself annually, and review it quarterly. Include specific goals, strategies, action steps, and a timetable.

Four: Develop an ‘elevator speech.” Within the time that it takes an elevator to travel one floor – about 60-seconds – be able to deliver a succinct description of what you do, how you do it differently, and the benefit it provides.

Five: Build your Rolodex. Make new business contacts and stay in touch with them. Most people with powerful brands have powerful friends.

Six: Balance your individual style with clothing that will appeal to those you are trying to impress.

Seven: Learn good business and social etiquette. Buy elegant personal stationery and send hand-written notes.

Eight: Give something back. Giving your time, talent, and money to charitable causes is a brand-builder especially when it complements your brand strategy. Find a cause you are passionate about.

Your personal brand is one of your greatest business assets. Put as much time and effort into it as you do in branding your product. In the end, if you can’t sell yourself, you’ll find it nearly impossible to sell your product.

Some people can make a mistake about being a bit too fun by being a bit too jokey on blogs all the time. They can end up having a lot of visibility but nobody really respects them, they just think they’re a good bloke and you know these sort of people, the people that you would see in a pub that you sort of think they’re always down here, they’re always popping up at the pub when do they ever earn any money. Be careful that you find the balance that you’re not just seen as being someone whos got too much time on their hands and they’re just there to have a joke and a laugh because whilst you may have a lot of visibility your credibility will be 0.

Looking for ideas for a home based business? Personal Branding is one of the 10 best home based business strategies available.

Personal Branding is the most effective way to establish a relationship with your prospects and attract the right kind of candidate to your business.

I teach my team to use attraction marketing and personal branding, to position yourself as a solutions provider who offers REAL VALUE, rather than a salesman peddling an opportunity.

Applied correctly, Personal Branding techniques will have prospects reaching out to you requesting your knowledge. And the more knowledge and know-how you can accumulate, the more value you will hold in the eyes of your prospects.

When a prospect calls you and invites you into their world, the entire dynamic is completely shifted. Itâ??s not about telling or selling anymore. Youâ??ve positioned yourself as a knowledgeable service provider whose expertise has been sought out and pursued. Your job is to offer solutions to their problems. And if you can do this effectively, that prospect will gladly come back to you time and again.

Because in all areas of life, people gravitate towards other people who provide VALUE. And the same holds true in this business.

Letâ??s say youâ??ve decided on a company to join, and now youâ??re looking for the right sponsor. Youâ??ve done your research on 4 or 5 guys, so which one are you going to sign up with?

Youâ??re going to choose the sponsor who you feel offers the most value â?? whether thatâ??s marketing techniques, personal development, a training platform, whatever you think you need most â?? you choose the guy or gal who can provide what you need and teach you how to be successful with your business.

Thereâ??s no hype here and no gimmicks. With personal branding, what youâ??re doing is building a relationship with your list. All you have to do is deliver high quality content that actually provides real solutions for real problems. Be yourself. Be genuine. And people will connect with that immediately.

My job is to teach you the specific techniques and strategies that other marketers are looking to learn and how to use attraction marketing to actually become that leader who other people want to work with. The more knowledge and know-how you accumulate, the more value you will hold in the eyes of your prospects.

Now, will you appeal to everybody? Of course not! But you donâ??t need everybody to be successful.

With a top tier direct sales model such as Global Resorts Network, even just a small core group of 5 producers on your team making only a couple sales a month and you already have a 6 figure income. And thatâ??s just the tip of the icebergâ?¦

But the deeper truth here is that what youâ??re looking to do in this business is connect with likeminded people. So as you build your team, youâ??re making a ton of money by sharing ideas with people you know, like and respect…

Now obviously there are details behind these concepts that youâ??ll need to learn, and concrete steps that youâ??ll want to take to actually make this a reality and put it into action.

This is exactly what I share in my one-on-one coaching. My goal is to give you a simple-to-understand easy-to-implement blueprint that will allow you use Personal Branding and Attraction Marketing to build your business right.
