I Tried Every Personal Branding Hack - Here's What Actually Worked

Ever felt like you're shouting all the time, trying to get your personal brand noticed? But unfortunately, that gets you nowhere. But guess what? After years of experience in the wild world of personal branding hacks, I've found out what truly lights the fire. So, grab a seat, because I'm about to tell you what genuinely took my brand from "Who's that?" to "Oh, wow!" Let's get started:

“Ask Me Anything” Sessions

Opening the floor to an "Ask Me Anything" brought me closer to my audience than ever. It's like hosting a party where the conversations just flow. These sessions are your go-to for authenticity and trust.

Start a Podcast

Starting a podcast was like flipping on a switch I didn't know I had. Suddenly, my voice (literally) was in people's lives, talking about things that matter to us both. It’s personal, it’s real, and guess what? People actually listen.

Write on Contradictory Topics

Ever bring up a topic at dinner that gets everyone talking? That's what I did online. I talked about stuff that not everyone agrees on. It made people really think and chat more on my posts. It's like making a potion that wakes everyone up and gets people talking!

Write Roundups

Imagine you're at a party, and instead of talking just about yourself, you introduce your friends and talk about how awesome they are. That's what you should do with your roundups. You can share cool things from other people to show there's lots of us in this together.?

Throwback Posts

Imagine scrolling through your feed and seeing a picture or a video that takes you back to the good old days. That's exactly what we're aiming for. It's like saying, "Hey, remember this?" and watching as everyone jumps in to reminisce. Using popular hashtags like #ThrowbackThursday or #TBT can also help you reach even more people to indulge in a bit of nostalgia.

Grow An Email List

Think about creating a club where everyone's waiting to hear from you – that's your email list. This isn't about blasting messages into the black hole; it's about writing personal notes to a group that's genuinely interested. And let me tell you, watching that list grow is like watching your audience multiply. It's direct, it's personal, and it's incredibly powerful.

Live Videos

Picture this: hitting the 'Live' button and just being your authentic self, no rehearsals, no do-overs. That raw, unfiltered connection with your audience is gold. It's like inviting them into your living room for a chat. The nerves? Sure, they're part of the package. But the genuine interactions you get in return are worth their weight in gold.

Focus On Brand Loyalty?

The true essence of branding isn’t just in attracting eyes; it’s in keeping them. This is where focusing on brand loyalty comes into play. It’s one thing to make a sale, but another to keep those people coming back.?

“If people believe they share values with a company, they will stay loyal to the brand.” Howard Shultz
