It\u2019s about establishing you and your business as a known, trustworthy and reliable presence in the marketplace. \u201cA strong brand is more than just your logo,\u201d it is about how your employees represent you, how your customers perceive you and most importantly, about whether you and your brand are seen as authentic. When authenticity matters most, what\u2019s your branding saying about YOU?<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, your personal brand should be consistent across all your social media platforms and your image, words, actions and pictures MUST be a true representation of you in order to be considered authentic. Outdated 10 year old photos have to go! Your tagline needs to be memorable, short and engaging but also speak to your \u201cvalue add\u201d and more importantly, to your values. To build trust in your brand and be perceived as authentic people will first look to see if you are being true to yourself and faithful to your own values and the views you espouse. Your brand is a promise to your customer and before they can know, like and trust you as authentic they will ask:<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Who are you?<\/li>\n<li>Who do you say you are?<\/li>\n<li>What differentiates you from everyone else?<\/li>\n<li>How do others perceive you?<\/li>\n<li>Is both truth and perception consistently aligned with one another in real life?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Presenting an image that is transparent and consistent across all five of these criteria will allow the consumer to develop a level of trust in your service, commitment and yes, in your authenticity. This also means wherever your customer finds you \u2013 whether that\u2019s on facebook, your website, your twitter account \u2013 they will see the same person and consistent value statements across all your social media platforms.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are a couple of examples we\u2019ve seen that might help explain what we\u2019re talking about:<\/strong><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stating, as part of your brand that you believe in renewable energy sources and green energy conservation efforts while tooling around town in the latest eight-seater, gas guzzling, expensive SUV suggests you are not being authentic.<\/li>\n<li>Branding yourself as accessible 24\/7 but not returning a call for 3 days straight is not an authentic representation of you or your business.<\/li>\n<li>Promoting fitness and the importance of clean eating during a video chat while an Iced Cappuccino beverage from a local coffee chain sits on the corner of your desk screams of being inauthentic!<\/li>\n<li>On the other hand, if you say you donate a portion of every sale to Sick Kids Hospital and you keep a running \u201cthermometer\u201d of total donations on your website and a current certificate from Sick Kids recognizing you as a donor \u2013 potential customers will see you as authentic. If your reason for supporting the hospital is because of a personal experience with it \u2013 share that story on your website too.\u00a0Your personal story matters to customers who are right-brain thinkers, people who form an emotional connection as part of how they do business with others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Brand, image and authenticity are intimately tied together.
