Why Your Personal Brand Matters
According to The Dictionary Of Brand by Marty Neumeier, a brand is: “a person’s perception of a product, service, experience, or organization.” Now extrapolate that to your personal brand and your personal brand is how you are perceived by others. Therefore, a personal brand is not a logo, a brand identity, a mission statement, a website, or a social media channel. Those add up to your personal brand, but by themselves are not your personal brand.
So, let’s say you’re an entrepreneur, influencer, or work for yourself, your business is built on your reputation and expertise. One way to look at your personal brand is what is the underlying factor(s) that will make someone ultimately choose to work with you oversomeone else or buy your products over someone else’s or hire you over someone else.

My Journey To Personal Branding
Let me narrate my story. I spent my childhood in a village in Kerala, and I was fond of writing and was quite enthusiastic about any opportunity to speak, sing and act onstage…well at school functions and community programs. I always grabbed all opportunities that allowed me to express myself. It was the beginning of a conscious attempt to build a personal brand out of myself, I suspect.
By the time I graduated from college, I had become a recognizable brand, sort of! After my MBA, I was drawn to entrepreneurship and launched a few ventures, some as partnerships in India, Dubai and Qatar. I also worked for a few companies during this period.
All along, I took care to build lasting relations with people of all types and potential. I noticed in dismay that everyone is a brand unto themselves, but only a few realised it. That was the beginning of my journey into the wonderful world of personal branding.
I studied all I could about public relations and communications, and how to build positive brands out of people by allowing them to highlight their vision and capabilities.
I started off by helping some of my talented friends and associates on a personal level as a personal brand strategist. After learning all the tricks of the game of personal branding, I floated my own personal branding agency in Dubai
Since its launch, I’ve offered my personal branding services to entrepreneurs, actors, politicians, community leaders and other luminaries.
What I do is what I love to do.

Where Others "Consult" We Do
88% of consumers do research before they purchase, such as who is the best, what are the ratings and reviews and any other supporting info, etc. I would much rather do my research on a company or a potential partner /service provider to know they’re legit before I decide to work with them.
If someone does research on you or your expertise, what will they find? Ideally, you’d like them to find the content you created, such as a blog article, a video on your YouTube channel that specifically speaks to them, and the problem they are currently having. They then recognize you as an authority and the obvious choice to help them solve their problem. Hence, your personal brand, people can research you and your company and decide whether you’re worth working with.
Regardless of whether or not you’re paying attention to your personal brand, people are already making judgments about you based on it. Not having a personal brand is no longer an option. You already have a personal brand and it’s either helping you or hurting you.
Analyze further. I undertook to notice how I was dealing with old and new leads. The trust I build in clients has become the foundation of my business. Being transparent and reliable, my customers loved the way I treated them and the way I interacted with them. I realized that most of the clients were approaching s beacause of me rather than our company name. When the leads to the firm was done by reference with myself more, Deep down it striked that I am a brand myself and I decided I am the right person for the same..

With competition rising high in every domain, personal branding is now quite inevitable. In fact it is not a one time activity but an ongoing process that has to be tactically ensured by a personal branding consultant who really knows the job.
When we discuss marketing, earlier it was solely about marketing a product or a company. However today things have drastically changed and it is well understood that in many niches and domains, personal branding works better than branding a product, service or the organization itself. In 2023 also, with digital marketing taking new twists and turns, significance and benefits of digital personal branding are going to increase only.
Social media can surely play a very crucial role in personal branding in 2023. If we look from a psychological view point, most people spend time on social media in their leisure time with a relaxed state of mind. So, being active or even just visible in social media would definitely be helpful in your branding efforts. You just have to identify the channel or platform where the majority or your prospects spend time on. Also, plans should be made based on the time they are most active. Social media is in fact the best option to interact with your prospects on an informal note which would be a much more personalized experience.
People adore you when you share content of value to them. Content marketing can surely help in personal branding. The only thing is that the content you share should be relatable to your audience. It should educate them about something new or something of relevance to them. The way you do content marketing and the channel you choose for the same is also important to ensure that you get maximum benefits of digital personal branding.
