@carmscrolls: Building a personal brand is a grind, but I’m convinced there are still ways to do it that allow you to benefit from a flawed system. I’m sharing two guidelines I use myself, that make it less shitty. #creatoreconomy #personalbrand #personalbranding #socialmediastrategy #influencerculture
I’ve been online since the 80s. My blog is 25+ years old. Several hundred videos online. I think the die is cast for my brand.

This is exactly how I think and speak about building a personal brand. The fact of showing certain aspects and build an alter ego is how I usually explain the concept, but I love how you communicate it.

Be very specific.I'm serious, One way to build a personality is to be able to understand what you are talking about in depth. If you're going to talk about boxing, go into depth. That's what makes your audience automatically define you that way.

Would love to hear if you have any texts/exercises/starting questions you recommend to help build out a structure or break down your personal brand! I’m someone who has had these moments of virality that are sometimes enigmas to me (i.e. why did THIS piece succeed rather than another) and I’ve always wanted to build out a solid base to return to for what content I’d like to make :)

I’m Gen X and have a deep mistrust/hatred for social media. I know I’m missing out on financial opportunities but I see no way to be authentic when I’ve turned myself into a commodity. I wish I could get past this feeling and buy in. What you say makes a lot of sense, just maybe not for me.

You truly are a breath of fresh air and embody the online personal brand that is a joy to engage with. I too am embarking on this journey after leading a Luddite-adjacent life as an older millennial.

That’s a big thing I’ve noticed from my creator friends is that the ones who post EVERYTHING in their lives burn out faster and feel a need to make everything content. They never get to be “off work” so to speak. Having parts of my life low visibility or even secret makes managing my “brand” a lot easier imo.
