“It's not about forging or faking a reputation for itself. It is simply about building a reputation that's going to serve you and your business, by framing the skills, the expertise, the experiences you have, in the best way possible.”
“Reputation is an asset, it's a tool. It's a marketing tool that everybody should be using.”
“It's not about positioning you as the hero of the story, it's about positioning you as the guide. It's going to help them along their journey, be the person that's going to take them on that process.”
“You've got to retain that core part inside of you: that passion, that uniqueness that you have, and make sure that it comes through in your content.”
“Just by taking the focus off you and making it more on how do I help people get from A to B, your personal brand becomes less about you and more about the bigger question.”
“You're always best positioned to help the person you once were.”

Takeaway:

Personal Branding is something that you can use that will be beneficial for your business.
Personal Branding offers a lot of benefits on your business. It can help you increase brand awareness, grow your business, increase conversion rate, and a lot more.
When it comes to personal branding, it doesn’t mean that everything is all about you. Your main focus is on helping people and how you can help them in solving their problems.
One of the problems that occur in personal branding is not understanding your audience. Your content will be able to position itself if you understand your audience better.
You are at an advantage if you are helping the people that went through the same thing that you encountered. You will be able to help them because you experienced the same thing
One of the ways you could dominate the market is to create your own category.
