How to build an unforgettable personal brand

Before we begin: A hard truth about personal branding.

Let’s be real – first impressions matter. And whether we like it or not, people judge us within seconds based on how we show up – our confidence, our message, and even our appearance.

I learned this the hard way.

💡 My story: Before I lost weight, I was the same driven, ambitious person. But opportunities felt scarce. People didn’t take me seriously. I didn’t change my skills, but when I transformed physically and became intentional about how I presented myself, the shift was massive. Suddenly, doors opened. People listened. My personal brand had a presence – not just online, but in real life.

That’s when I realised that personal branding isn’t just about words – it’s about presence, perception, and positioning.

And today, AI makes this easier than ever. Let’s break it down.

Why personal branding matters more than ever (and why most people struggle)

🚀 Studies show that 75 percent of hiring managers are more likely to trust professionals with a strong online presence.

🚀 Brands that invest in personal branding see 5x more engagement and business opportunities.

Yet, most people struggle because:

• ❌ They don’t know where to start.
• ❌ They lack consistency and get overwhelmed.
• ❌ They aren’t confident in how they present themselves.

💡 Good news: AI can automate and enhance these branding efforts – so you spend less time struggling and more time building impact.

What it really takes to build a powerful personal brand

A personal brand is not just a logo or a tagline – it’s how people remember you when you’re not in the room.

Here’s the step-by-step process to stand out and get noticed:

1️⃣ Clarity: Define your brand identity and message

Before you can be memorable, you need to be clear on your brand’s purpose.

🔹 Ask yourself:

• ✅ What’s my unique value?
• ✅ Who is my target audience?
• ✅ What do I want to be known for?

“I want to build a personal brand in [industry]. My skills are [list skills]. What’s a strong personal brand positioning statement for me?“

2️⃣ Visibility: Show up and be seen

It’s not enough to be great – if no one knows about you, you don’t exist.

🔹 Ask yourself:

• ✅ Am I consistently active on LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube?
• ✅ Am I showing up as a thought leader?
• ✅ Is my content engaging the right audience?

Your brand should communicate: “I’m the go-to person in my industry.“
