Published by Hay House on 7th May, £10.99. Also available as an ebook.
A unique guide explaining what personal branding is and how to brand
yourself professionally and personally to create a new you from one of
the UK’s best-known experts on brands and personal development.
In an increasingly tough jobs market and an ever more competitive world
in general, it is more vital than ever to stand out from the crowd to
get the most from the opportunities given to us. UK expert on branding
and personal development Simon Middleton’s answer to this: create a
killer personal brand.
This is not a prescriptive business book that will explain how to
swot-up for an interview or merely improve your CV, instead Middleton
shows you that by examining your story, finding your strategy, paying
heed to your audiences and establishing a ‘brand’, you really can build a
‘brand new you’.
Middleton promises that by creating a strong personal brand you will
improve your prospects at work (and might just get that promotion!),
stand out dramatically from the crowd and secure the job you really
want, and even improve your prospects in finding a romantic partner.
Offering a fascinating glimpse into the art of successful company
branding and marketing strategy, and then applying it to the individual
reader, Middleton shares his expertise so that by the end of this book
you’ll be thinking about yourself like the CEO of a global company
thinks about their business. In the process you’ll be on your way to
developing your killer personal brand, developing your own marketing
strategy and achieving ambitions which previously seemed out of reach.
This book shows you how to build your personal brand and create a new you by explaining:
- How to turn ambition and dreams into a personal brand strategy
- How to identify the competitors to your personal brand and how to stand
out from the crowd.
- Strategies for ‘positioning’ yourself to best promote your personal brand
- How to craft your personal brand story and ‘sell’ yourself
- How to bring your personal brand to life in everything that you do, to
build an authentic, distinctive and compelling brand ‘identity’.
Explaining what personal branding is and full of examples of how people
