Many times, it starts right at that magical moment your potential followers, clients, or patients lay eyes on you; & it’s often your name they see 1st.
Now, when I consult with individual professionals (namely physicians) who want to build an online personal brand, this isn’t always a possibility. Many of them want to expand in their career and build intellectual property, online, that’s built around their name, degree included.

For me, that’s great advice for academicians, or anyone that is looking to build a more conservative presence.
Or simply to stake claim to online property that’s unquestionably yours. And then build from there.

For anyone who’s looking to be a bit more.. edgy.. or to connect with the public in a special way, consider branding factors that will have them coming back for more. There’s nothing wrong with doing things a little bit differently.
