Personal, professional and business branding is occurring regularly, whether or not we are aware of it.
From our web site presence to our postings on the sites of
others, from our credit ratings to our cell phone records and
application navigation, we are tracking others and being tracked
ourselves.
Deciding to become active in social networking is really a matter
of managing personal, professional and business images/brands or
having them manage us.
Networking is a vital tool in achieving an image/brand.
Establish a network like a wheel. The hub is core content (web
site, blog, books, articles, useful materials). The spokes leading
from the hub are the tools to network content that is linked to the
hub.
Contacts are the engines that power the wheel.
Content is the fuel that feeds the social networking contacts and
powers the wheel.
As the wheel turns, the quality of the networking improves with
feedback and the wheel climbs the optimization hill of the major
search engines (SEO).
Limiting factors are the quality of the core content and
knowledge/persistence in networking.
