How can you build a strong brand when starting your career?

Here are some tried and tested ways to build your BRAND while starting your career journey: - Know what to say, when to say, how to say, and whom to say to! This basically means knowing what your USP is and how you can showcase it in the best possible manner through content/ networking. - Build a digital persona through social media. Know how to leverage a platform to your advantage. Blog on LinkedIn/ Vlog on YouTube/ Shoot reels for Instagram/ Tweet on X/ host a portfolio on Behance/ etc. - Remember to be AUTHENTIC and CONSISTENT and not give up if you don't get early results. Brands take time to build :) Remember to not become a me-too and copy others. Be unique. Showcase your expertise. Build your own voice. Try it out :) Tx

A career is oftentime full time, and 80% of career individuals would love nothing more than, dedicating long nights and loads of creativity to doing something they'll be proud of. The problem with jumping into the deep blue sea as a ship without a reputation or a name, is you'll mosy likely get mistaken as a vessel for everyone, anyone, and for any purpose available. As several sea vessels tour the ocean, some a lifeguard boats for security, other yachts for luxury and another for commercial fishery. 21st Century industries evolve and widen by the day, so identifying and standing with the niche that embodies your passion, is essential. It makes you stand out, brings you out of being a jack of the trade, but a master of one.

DIVE IN. Breath what you're doing, in my case, design. Subscribe to the main youtube channels, that also means unsubscribing to things that are distractions. (you can come back later, but brand building requires focus) follow all the social media accounts everywhere. Listen to the podcasts, read the books, get in the groups, breath your business. START NICHED. I was often called the "photographer logo guy" cuz when I started back in 2013, I absolutely boomed in the photographer community, I would sale logos for 100 dollars, and do 2 or 3 in a day. (not proud of those designs, but they got me where I am today) And those clients, payed the bills. Over time, I organically diversified, and I had a big portfolio, and over 100 amazing reviews.

Esse passo inicial é muito importante para guiar seu negócio garantido que seu produto é servi?o e a suas estratégias de comunica??o se mantenham coerentes com o público que você busca atingir. Com essa etapa bem definida, vai trazer clareza para os próximos passos.

When establishing your career and crafting a potent personal brand, identifying your niche is paramount. Begin by introspectively assessing your skills, passions, and unique strengths. Research the market and industry trends to uncover areas of specialization that align with your interests. Define a niche that not only sets you apart but also resonates with your professional aspirations. This focused approach allows you to carve a distinct identity, making it easier to communicate your value and build a robust brand in your chosen field.

Your value proposition needs to be simple and to the point. Consider the following while creating it: - What you offer - Who are you offering it to - How would you do this task - What problem will it solve

Nike no solo vende zapatillas; vende ambición, determinación y la promesa de superación personal. Tu propuesta de valor debe resonar con un impacto similar. Define qué solución única ofreces, cómo mejora la vida de tus clientes y por qué no pueden prosperar sin ella. Tu mensaje debe ser un faro de claridad y convicción, como el eslogan "Just Do It" de Nike.

Esse é um dos momentos mais importantes para mostrarmos qual é o nosso diferencial e deve ser analisado de forma profunda. Veja bem, gest?o de rede social eu encontro milhares de profissionais fazendo esse mesmo servi?o, mas o que você tem, que só você oferece? Qual é o seu propósito enquanto marca? Uma pergunta que traduz na essência o que você deve responder é: e se minha empresa fechar hoje, o que as pessoas iriam perder? - Uma dica é explorar algumas metodologias e definir seu propósito através do Golden Circle.

While starting you might not have immediate client works to share, thus, providing passion projects and some services at a lower rate to gain experience helps you build your roots in the niche you are targeting.

La arquitecta Zaha Hadid no necesitaba presentaciones; su trabajo hablaba por ella. Construye tu portafolio como Hadid construyó edificios: distintivo, innovador y reflejando un estilo inconfundible. Incluye proyectos que demuestren no solo tu habilidad, sino también tu evolución y visión. Deja que tu trabajo sea tu voz y cuente la historia de tu marca.

Your network needs to include people on different levels but in the same niche. Example: - at least 5 people on the same level as you - at least 5 people who are 10 steps better than you - at least 5 people who are way beyond and can be taken as idols basically With this, you will build a community who know and support you, you will be studying the tactics of people who are already winning, and you will be able to understand what to do next.

LinkedIn transformó la forma en que profesionales se conectan, aprovechando la red para construir carreras y negocios. Construye tu red con la misma intención: conecta con mentores, colegas y líderes de la industria. Aporta valor en cada interacción y cultiva relaciones genuinas. Haz de tu red un ecosistema de oportunidades y crecimiento mutuo.

Desenvolver sua rede de contatos é pensar em como você ou sua marca vai se relacionar com a sociedade. Além de participar de clubes e grupos locais, minha dica é ser original e criar seus próprios espa?os e comunidades. Como fotógrafo, por exemplo, você pode promover concursos de fotografia por meio de seus canais. Pensem em ambientes colaborativos, e em como ser pioneiro desses movimentos agrega para a sua marca.

Self-promotion is often considered negative, but it only gets negative when you are selling something directly! Promote yourself by providing value. Example: Show how mood boards are made, people who can make it themselves and just need guidance will not hire you and they are not your target market. But they will give you the attention as you are providing value. That attention will make you reach to people who don't have the time to make it themselves or don't want to, and that is your target audience as they will hire you for that skill.

Esse passo é o momento em que você mensura se está no caminho e certo e com qual intensidade. Mas para poder medir os resultados é importante ter metas e objetivos muito claros. A dica é construir suas OKR's de forma mais amplas e que fa?am sentido a médio/ longo prazo. E dentro de cada OKR as KR's que você vai precisar cumprir para atingir o objetivo maior. Lembrando que para toda meta e a??o, é necessário ter um indicador para que possa acompanhar os resultados construídos. Nem sempre é possível, mas sempre que for, aplique pesquisas, como NPS. E escute o que seus clientes est?o falando.

Branding is a continuous process. Once you get the basics right, it gets easier to stick to it. However, consistency in implementing a strong identity and implementing changes accordingly is the winning solution.
