10 Ideas To Kickstart Your Personal Brand

Here are some ideas to get your creative branding juices flowing. 1. Join a new community Find a new forum or niche social network and become an active member of the community, participating for at least 15 minutes every single day until you are a recognized expert on the basis of your participation alone. 2. Create a new community Sometimes creating and building a new community might seem easier than trying to stand out in an older established one, or you might have discovered a part of your industry that is under-served, either online or in the real world. 3. Launch an initiative In your industry, is there a fight no one is fighting? An issue that you feel isn't getting as much attention as it deserves? Become the motor for change. In 25 Easy Ways To Grow Your Personal Brand in 5 Minutes, I suggested you "start an industry-related petition" but that's just one example. Launching initiatives is also a great way to build a community.

Use Your Job Strengths For A Faster Job Search

Trying to stand out in a crowd is not always the best way to stand out. I was once chatting with an old friend of mine about his dating struggles. Or rather, struggles about his lack of serious dating. In his late 30's, single and wanting very much to start a family, he felt the pressure mounting as time crept on. As a result, he began looking for new ways to meet that special someone. Later that year, he signed up to a major dating site and spent 3 months meeting site members whose profiles showed that they had similar interests. Unfortunately, the 3 months went by without him meeting anyone significant which, although he didn't say so, only made the situation seem more desperate. However, when I asked him why he thought it didn't work out, he responded with 2 key insights to dating websites: * How good you look in your profile picture will decide whether people continue reading your profile * When a better-looking person is potentially just one click away, you need to look great to keep people from clicking too quickly Although he's a decent-looking guy, he didn't stand much of a chance in that situation.

Job Search at Work? 5 Must-Read Tips

Put less pressure on yourself by job searching while employed. This is a guest post by Dave Thomas. If you’d also like to guest post here on JobMob follow these guest post guidelines. There are always individuals with jobs who for one reason or another choose to search for a different position. When those cases arise, it behooves the individual to be as discreet as possible so that their present employer is not privy to their search, something that in the end could cost the employee their present job. The last thing you want is to really need to search for a job because you just lost your current job due to wasting the employer’s time. In the event you want or feel the need to get another position while presently employed, keep these factors in mind.
