Remember the old phrase "How you do anything is how you do everything". Whatever your goals and objectives, ensure that you can live up to them in every aspect of your personal and professional life. It takes only one mis-step to ruin a reputation and years to repair it.

Branding is a must to elevate your message. And the good old days of being a leader in the foreshadow are gone. Founders and CEO’s are now the celebrities. Technology & social media have made it so that you don’t rely on traditional marketing to have a voice. Look at the business pages on social media. Instead of the business logo, the founder or CEO is the face of the company. That's a strategic and personal move; to give the public a warmer sense of engagement. Personal branding is all about strategic planning that involves intentionality and thought. The public’s perception of who you are will be defined by your consistency, collaborations, and growth. What 3 words would you want someone to describe your brand? Lead with that!

2 Define your value proposition

The next step is to define your value proposition, which is the unique benefit or solution that you offer to your target audience. Your value proposition should answer the question: why should they choose you over others? What makes you stand out from the crowd? What are the skills, knowledge, experience, and achievements that you have that are relevant and valuable to public affairs? How do you demonstrate your credibility, competence, and character? Your value proposition should be concise, specific, and compelling.

What makes you unique? It's usually a combination of factors - experience, style and knowledge. You have a unique combination of those - that's who you are.

3 Craft your message

The third step is to craft your message, which is the way you communicate your value proposition to your target audience. Your message should be consistent, authentic, and engaging. It should reflect your personality, your voice, and your style. It should also be tailored to the needs, preferences, and expectations of your target audience. You should use clear, simple, and powerful language that conveys your passion, your purpose, and your impact.

I agree with Alan. People sometimes think that using more complex language will make them seem impressive. In fact however, various studies have shown that we come over as more capable, intelligent and likeable when we use plain language; while using more complex language can have the opposite effect.

Don't just keep it simple, keep it very simple. The sort of language and concepts that an 11-year-old would understand immediately. If you have to explain your message, it's already too complex.

Your message is your weapon. Make it clear, concise, and powerful. Tailor it to your target audience and use strong language to inspire action. Own your voice and unleash your impact. Remember, a weak message is a wasted opportunity.

4 Choose your channels

The fourth step is to choose your channels, which are the platforms and tools that you use to deliver your message to your target audience. Your channels should be aligned with your goals, your value proposition, and your message. They should also be appropriate for your field, your industry, and your audience. Some of the common channels for public affairs professionals are websites, blogs, social media, podcasts, newsletters, media outlets, events, and networks. You should select the channels that best suit your objectives, your resources, and your audience.

Even though you can choose your channels, remember that others can share your content on other channels that they favour. Aim to make your content channel-agnostic.

5 Build your network

The fifth step is to build your network, which is the group of people who can help you achieve your goals, support your value proposition, and amplify your message. Your network should include people who share your vision, your values, and your interests in public affairs. They can be mentors, peers, colleagues, clients, partners, media, influencers, or advocates. You should cultivate and maintain your network by providing value, showing appreciation, seeking feedback, and offering help.

Don't force your view on people - allow them to gradually appreciate your strengths by helping them and answering their questions. Always say thank you if they help you. Keep in touch but don't pester them.

6 Evaluate your results

The final step is to evaluate your results, which is the process of measuring and improving your personal brand in public affairs. You should monitor and analyze your performance, your reach, and your feedback using various indicators and tools. You should also compare your results with your goals and objectives, and identify your strengths and areas for improvement. You should also celebrate your achievements and learn from your failures. You should constantly update and refine your personal brand based on your results, your feedback, and your changing environment.
