Do you wish others were calling YOU as opposed to your chasing THEM?If you're like most business professionals, your business or career has progressed well so far; however, you haven't done enough about keeping up with all the developments on the web. In the past you have been sought out based on that success, but now when people Google you it's as if you do not exist. Anyway it's never been important before. But if you don't start to get a web prescence, pretty soon you are not going to be getting the calls that will grow your business or get you that next promotion or job opportunity.
Dear Business Professional or Owner:
If someone searched for you on Google or Yahoo right now, would they be able to find you? And if they did are they going to find what you want them to?
Is what is being said about you on line what you want others to know about you or recognise you for?
Can you search and find your peers or competitors more easily and are wondering how you too could get more noticed on line?
In the past reality was if you did a good job people came to you to do something similar for them. But in the technology driven age of social networking and googling they are not coming to you first - they are not even asking your trusted business associates - they are typing in keywords and seeing what the web is saying first.
For those of you looking to build your corporate careers;
- 83% of recruiters use search engines to first learn about candidates
and of that
- 43% have eliminated candidates based on information they found online
even
- 12% of hiring managers are using social networking sites
For those of you running your own service businesses;
- 25% of business people are internet searching you before they will even meet with you
- Over 70% of North Americans now use the internet
- There are over 95 million searches a day, and that's just on Google
It's likely that you do have the best skiils, have been recognised numerous times for the work you do and those that are in your teams value your involvement.
But all that alone doesn't get you noticed on line ....does it?
If you do not take the time to promote yourself online, as more and more people are doing - you are not going to get noticed, no matter how good you are.
It's exactly for that reason that I have put together the "Google ME!" package - How to build your on line personal brand in 10 easy steps.
Strong personal brands appeal to their target audiences across a broad spectrum of media
Confirming your credibility and making it visible on line ensures you are present in the fastest growing media sector.
Sometimes you need to be more visible about who you are, what you do, and what you are looking for.
For example, if you entered your name in to Google right now - what comes up? People use this information to form an impression and gauge the importance of what you mean to them;
- Should they hire you?
- Are you right for that promotion?
- Do they want to deal with your company that offers the product or service that is right for them?
If you do not show up on Google do you really exist?
The "Google ME!" package looks to address that with some simple
to take Action Steps that anyone who is familiar with the basic operation
or a computer and using the internet can perform. It's not technically based
or looking to swallow up a lot of your time. The package consists of an audio
CD and accompanying downloadable workbook.
We can all get very caught up with surfing and reading what we find out on line. However the intention with this approach is to help start you raise your visibility quickly on the web with your only needing to spend the minimum of time.
Ideally you will want to ingrain these various, easy to do, activities in to your weekly schedule so that they become second nature and do not distract you from all the other things that you have going on.
You might need to spend a little more time initially conducting some research and finding what will and won’t work for you from all the choices that are out there. But once you are comfortable and proficient you can look for this to take no more than a hour a week to maintain and grow your on line presence.
As with anything, the more you put in to the groundwork the easier the rest of the effort becomes and the more quickly it becomes second nature.
If you are looking to make your on line brand one of the cornerstones of your personal brand building then you are going to probably need to spend more time each week getting noticed. Unlike others who might have decided that this is a key part of their brand building but is not going to be the only thing they are doing to get noticed.
The audio part of this program takes you through some reasons as to why building an on line brand is now becoming so key to success and then will specifically cover some main areas that you can get involved in to start building and growing your on line identity.
The audio will refer you back to the workbook in places to complete certain exercises; you can do each exercise separately or listen to the entire CD and then come to the workbook.
The workbook will show you how to take the following actions:
- Checking Your Google Score
- Setting Your Criteria for Your On-Line Brand
- Developing Your On-Line Brand Statement
- Having an On-Line Presence - web sites, blogs or portfolios
- Building a Professional On-Line Profile
- Adding to Your Networth Through On-Line Networks
- Get Published as an Author & Critic

and then supplies you with a first month and then weekly ACTION STEP GUIDE to the building and on going development of your on line brand.
