Maximizing Your Personal Brand Part 3: Hygiene – Erik Tyler

 

This is the third installment in the series “Maximizing Your Personal Brand.” While I suppose today’s post could stand alone to some degree, I do highly recommend that you check out Part 1 and Part 2 first. Not only do they lay important groundwork regarding the significance of your personal brand, they contain key components of a whole. To miss out on them might be compared with trying to write a symphony with just the woodwind section, or painting a masterpiece with only one color.

What’s more, if you don’t read the build-up regarding how your clothing, eyewear and hair affect your personal brand, you’ll be jumping in at a particularly strange part of the story (as you may have guessed by the header image).

As I did at the beginning of the previous post, I’ll summarize two key concepts before we continue, in even more condensed form:

1. Nonverbal communication includes more than expressions and hand gestures.

The first impressions that you make happen before you even get a chance to speak; yet those impressions will often dictate how – or even if – people will receive your message.

First impressions can dictate how – or even IF – people will receive your message. Share on X

2. You are your own personal brand.

We as individuals must treat our personal brand just as seriously as any successful company approaches its own branding and public image, which means devoting adequate time and resources to making sure our personal brand remains unique, positive and memorable.

Make sure your personal brand remains unique, positive and memorable. Share on X
