Whether you’re a blogger, a podcaster, an author, small business owner – or anything else! – your personal brand is something that can really draw people to you.

However, if presented and communicated the wrong way, it can also drive them away.

So, you may be wondering, how can you make sure to have a great personal brand that is the reflection of your “ingredients” (values, passions, past experiences) and that attracts potential clients?

You see, the thing with personal branding is that some entrepreneurs might have great products and services, which would solve the problems of the people who are in front of them. Because their brand isn’t communicated the proper way, though, they fail in establishing a connection with their audience.

And no connection = no sales.

In this new episode of the 360 Entrepreneur Podcast, we’re joined by none other than award-winning author, business consultant and keynote speaker Pamela Slim, who shares her wisdom on how to craft the story of your personal brand!

During our interview, Pamela and I touch on a variety of topics, including  how to identify the foundation of your personal brand (and its ingredients!), the power of storytelling, Pam’s tips for a full-color, full-contact communication plan, her latest book Body of Work and the Indispensable Community Tour.
