Personal Branding 101
« on: Oct 06, 2011, 08:57 am »
I've been working recently with a close friend and recruiter to develop my personal brand.  One of the first articles she referred me to is linked below, it containes some helpful tips on creating a personal brand utilizing some of the social media technologies out there.  Thought this particularly applicable to independent theater professionals.    Create your brand and distinguish yourself from ordinary job seekers!

Yes, people don't realize just how important this is nowadays. It can really give you the upperhand when hiring is done.
