Summary
In this Introduction to Personal Branding you will get a short crash course (in an English accent) into what personal branding is, how to take your first steps toward perfecting your personal brand, and you will learn some actionable tactics you can employ immediately in order to start becoming more memorable within your career niche.
Personal branding is the practice of defining your professional purpose and being able to articulate your experience and value to your target audience through digital media and social channels like blogs, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. It is also a crucial discipline to help you get the most out of in-person events such as conferences and networking opportunities where the key to a successful outcome often lies in your personal brand standing out.
Given the explosion in use of digital and social media over the past few years, the Internet has presented professionals with a magnificent opportunity to help their expertise become more discoverable, sharable and memorable through their personal brands.

Compact and insightful
There are three types of people in the world. Those who don't know what to do, those who know what do but refuse to do it, and those who know what to do and actually take action. Once you've listened to this short and sweet audio book, you'll be equipped with the knowledge to fall into category 3. All you have to do is take action. Thank you Mel for sharing your valuable insights. I now need to get busy putting them into action

Challenging, clear and simple.
If you are like me you have put this one in the too hard basket. No excuses. Simple formula that gets you started. That is the hard part. The rest is much easier. Thanks Mel.

so basic and his reading Cadence is terrible. I wo
overall this book is pretty basic. The author and readers voice is quite annoying. Comes across as quite arrogant. I didn't really learn much other than what you could probably get on LinkedIn.
