The What and Why of Personal Brand; Day One
Naomi Thrower
Nov 4, 2024

Hello people,

Welcome to the start of a 30 day challenge where I will be sending inspiration and motivation around the what and why of personal brand.

I hope you find it useful. Here we go with Day One…

I'm going to start where this all began for me. My own experience of how I discovered the power of building your own personal profile. A few years ago I felt lost. After over a decade building a career in marketing, I had taken a break to bring up my two children. I was running my own small kids yoga company, but I knew I couldn't scale it. And I needed more. I missed the business world, the relationships, the projects, the buzz of working with people all around me.

That was six years ago.
And only in the last 18 months have I invested in my personal brand.

I have done three things consistently:

One:
Invested time to know myself and what it is I believe in, my values and what I want to influence and be known for.

Two:
I have made an effort to go to events, to network my own way, having fun, picking up friends and people I care about to surround myself with... just like my buddy Kyle (pictured!)

Three:
I have written consistently on LinkedIn. With my heart open. I have been clear and intentional, open and vulnerable about my passions, my learnings, my successes and failures.

Doing these things I have built a freelance business with a monthly turnover of five figures in under a year.

I have now started an agency with my two wonderful friends, Sarah and Jay... And this is just the beginning.

Personal Brand works. And over the coming days I am going to show you how.

Please join me on my 30 day challenge getting to know more about personal brand and the value it can bring to your life.

Happy Monday!

Much love.
