Thanks for the comment. This blog is aligned with the principles of attraction marketing, so personal branding and creating value are at the core of all of the content I share. I also teach my business partners these very same principles. I think you are giving your students some very practical knowledge with real world application that will differentiate and distinguish them from the pack.

The reason we create value is so we can build relationships which is really the foundation from which the entire process is built upon. The internet in its current form gives us the advantage of extreme leverage so we can maximize the opportunity to network with like minded individuals around the globe. Kudos for giving your students this cutting edge strategy that will enhance their chances for success.

Great article. Let me just add some points.
in number 1 : blogging : One of the rules of blogging is offering value to people. Many people blog to boast, to advertise or to sell something ! This is a mistake. Offer value, don’t hold back information, is a major rule !

These steps are steps that can be followed if you are a student or a job seeker. As a University professor I recommend to my students (during professional development coursed) to create a personal brand (or a digital identity) as soon as possible. So the day they graduate they can use their personal brand and their social network to apply to another university or get a job.
All the best,
Majed

Once again, great content Fredric.

Take care,

Thank you for adding value through your comment. You’re absolutely correct, the identity we wish to build is our PERSONAL BRAND. Using all of the social media discussed, we can position ourselves as leaders and engage a massive amount of individuals by using these tips on a consistent basis. Consistency is definitely a key word here. Create a plan and commit to it!
