14 Questions to Ponder When Building Your Personal Brand

If you are looking for a blog post that gives you all the answers, you’re going to be sorely disappointed in this one.  As I was reading a post over at PeiProfit.com on branding, it got me thinking about how and why it is important to build a personal brand. And as I thought through the “how’s” and “why’s” I found I was asking myself more questions than I was answering, and therein was the learning for me.

Below is a list of questions I came up with when thinking about building a personal brand. Possibly I will follow up with some answers, but for now I think I will just leave you with questions.
