Whether you’re looking for a job or looking to advance your career, recognize this: Your personal brand is the key to achieving success. So, what does this look like? Your personal brand is your story revealed. The challenging part is communicating this and having it consistent across all platforms – in print, in person and across social media outlets such as LinkedIN, Twitter and Facebook.

To help job applicants enhance and maximize their brand on and offline, here are my personal pillars to successful personal branding:

#1 – Know who you are and sell it

First you must understand what you want from your personal brand. Think about the skills, experiences and passions that are unique to you. It’s important you know what they are so you can maximize them effectively and articulate them when speaking with potential employers at events or during interviews.

Not every employer is like Google where they’ll give you a chunk of the work week to pursue your own creative projects.  Finding the time and the motivation to be creative at your job can often be trying for most of the working world. 

When we start our workday, many of us opt to try and get our reactive work out of the way first.  Essentially, these are things where we respond to incoming demands from other people.  While it may seem smart to get the grind out of the way first, things rarely work out the way we’d like.  The treadmill of reactive work tends to be never-ending, and it’s often close to the end of the workday before you’re finished with it.  If it does end early, your creative mood has likely been burned out by then.  99% blogger, Mark McGuinness, has a few tips that can help you throw off the shackles of your average workday and start you on the road to something remarkable.

There are few things people get more nervous and anxious about than presenting. Whether it’s before 5 people or 5,000, there’s a lot you can do to calm your nerves aside from just being prepared. For this reason, we thought we’d together some of our favourite advice from across the web to help you through the next one.

1. 10-20-30 Rule – This is a slideshow rule offered by Guy Kawasaki. This rule states that a powerpoint slide should have no more than 10 slides, last no longer than 20 minutes and have no text less than 30 point font. He says it doesn’t matter whether your idea will revolutionize the world, you need to spell out the important nuggets in a few minutes minutes, a couple slides and a several words a slide. (Source: Lifehacker)

2. Be honest – A lot of people present to the audience what they want to hear, instead of what they need to hear. Make sure you tell the truth even if they don’t want to hear it because they will respect you for that and it will make you more human. (Source: Quicksprout)

Just like the demise of the book, the death of handwriting should not be assumed. The dangers of rushed email or the bashed-out, impersonal “R U OK? I am gr8” ugliness of texting - all these fade into white noise beside the stylish, deliberated simplicity of the handwritten note.

Crisp vellum stationary, the elegant flow of letters pouring across a clean page: these are the building blocks of our civilization. Yes, we now have the printed word, but do we really want future civilizations to believe that ours was an age of bank statements and bureaucracy?
