Three Tips for Promoting Yourself

What is Your Personal Brand

We follow Dan Schawbel because of the great work he does on one of our favorite topics…Personal Branding. In one of his recent newsletters he offered a few tips to promote yourself that resonated with our own philosophies and we wanted to share.

Go Above and Beyond

If you want to get ahead in life, then you must do more than what’s expected of you. After you finish your projects, seek to help co-workers complete theirs. Then, when you require support, they will want to reciprocate.

Don’t Take Yourself Too Seriously

Some of us tend to get so caught up in our work that we take ourselves too seriously? Life is too short to not take a step back and laugh at some of the crazy decisions we make.

Take More Risks

If you aren’t challenging yourself, you aren’t growing. In order to further your career, and learn as much as possible, you have to take a risk once in a while. You never know what can happen if you don’t make an attempt.
