In a recent article about managing your personal brand online I asked "How confident are you about your online reputation?" and one of our readers here at Biz Growth News then commented:
"I've googled myself a few times and have found another with my name has a more established identity on the web. That person is a massage therapist and very much into holistic and alternative health cures. I am an IT project manager. We are very different, but share the same name. How can I best differentiate myself from my namesake?"
What a great question. In fact I suggested to my fellow Podcast Sister Anna that this should be the focus of our podcast this week.
So if you want to know our recommendations on how to ensure that you stand out online, I'd recommend that you listen to our Podcast Sisters podcast about making sure that your personal brand stands out online. Anna and I share practical and no cost strategies that you can use even if you are not technical. And these are all strategies we have used personally so can vouch for them.
Do let me know if you found the audio of assistance in managing your online reputation. What strategies do you use?
