ADVICE

Choose One Audience First

  • Start branding by choosing who you want to speak to: potential bosses/clients, peers, or a general audience.
  • Narrowing your audience immediately eliminates irrelevant content and clarifies what expertise to share.
ADVICE

Share Concrete Expertise

  • Share your industry or work expertise rather than trying to be a vague "thought leader."
  • Use real experiences and lessons from your work as the substance of your content.
