Personal branding is a strategy that utilizes traditional marketing concepts such as packaging, image building, selling and self-promotion, much as is done with any other product.
![Page 8: The Key to Successful Personal Branding](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042700/558a2515d8b42aed238b4666/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
However, the product is you, and you must find a coherent personal message to send through a polished and consistent image.

Building a personal brand is not a difficult process.
![Page 21: The Key to Successful Personal Branding](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042700/558a2515d8b42aed238b4666/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The odds are, you are already doing it without realizing that’s what you are doing.
![Page 22: The Key to Successful Personal Branding](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042700/558a2515d8b42aed238b4666/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
People routinely depend upon their personal characteristics and history to project their image to others.
![Page 23: The Key to Successful Personal Branding](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042700/558a2515d8b42aed238b4666/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Ensure that you refine the exterior packaging of your product, you, so that it is perceived in a favorable way.
This action includes clothing, grooming, speech patterns, vocabulary and other details of your personal habits.
Some people find that seeing a video of themselves helps to provide a clear picture of how others see them.
![Page 28: The Key to Successful Personal Branding](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042700/558a2515d8b42aed238b4666/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Your individuality is a unique asset that you should project in your image.
