1 Reflect Honestly

Begin by taking a step back to reflect on your career thus far. Honest self-assessment is a critical first step in rebuilding your personal brand. Consider your strengths and areas for improvement. What sales strategies have worked well for you? What feedback have you received from peers or managers? This introspection will help you identify the core values and skills that you want to emphasize in your personal brand moving forward.

that's absolutely right, introspection is the key. We should think of our strengths and explain how it helped us to be successful but do not over-emphasize them as everyone needs to adapt them to their strengths but true experiences are quite useful

2 Update Resume

Your resume is often the first impression potential employers have of you, so ensure it reflects your updated personal brand. Highlight your sales achievements and any new skills or certifications you've acquired. Tailor your resume to showcase how your unique experiences make you an ideal candidate for the roles you're targeting. Use action verbs and quantify your successes to make a strong impact.

that's right, the information should be updated with the latest skills, achievements, and changes. We must always give the summary on top in bullet points/key takeaways, that helps as nowadays, people are so busy with so much information around, they need to make sure where to invest their time even when reading a resume
