The Whole Package<br />
Pay close attention to your entire image. Of course, your<br />
character is of paramount importance. But you make an impact<br />
on people in other ways as well.<br />
Your appearance—the clothes you wear, your personal<br />
grooming, your posture—has an enormous emotional impact<br />
on how other people see you, think about you, and relate to<br />
you.<br />
Your attitude is vital. If you are genuinely pleasant and<br />
cheerful in your interaction with others, they will enjoy being<br />
with you. They will be more inclined to trust you and do<br />
business with you.<br />
Your overall behavior strongly influences the impression<br />
others have of you. Be punctual for meetings and appointments.<br />
Be absolutely reliable, always keeping your word and<br />
your commitments. Should you fail in this area, communicate<br />
with the other person as quickly as possible, offering<br />
your apology, explanation, and assurance that it will not<br />
happen again. Be responsive to the needs of your customers.<br />
Get back to them promptly. Develop a sense of urgency. Become<br />
a ‘‘Do it now’’ kind of person. Develop the reputation<br />
of being the ‘‘Go to’’ person when a customer has a problem<br />
or needs something done quickly and well.<br />
Pay close attention to the quality of your work. In the<br />
long run, there is nothing that will so determine your <strong>success</strong><br />
in building and sustaining a powerful personal brand as turning<br />
out high-quality work, over and over again and over a<br />
long period of time.<br />
There are seven laws of personal branding you must master,<br />
if you are to drive your business to new levels of excellence<br />
and profitability.
