Strategic Shifts To Stay Relevant In Any Industry, Profession and At Any Age

22 July

I'm turning 40 (!!!) and it also marks 10 years in recruitment (which got me into Personal Branding) so it's time to share some insights on how personal branding has evolved and the necessary strategic pivots to make to stay relevant in today's fast-paced digital world.

Shift 1: Micro-Communities Over Large Audiences

Deeper Engagement: Smaller communities foster personalised interactions, building loyalty and trust.
Tailored Content: Focus on niche groups to deliver more relevant and engaging content.
Stronger Relationships: Intimate settings create personal connections, leading to higher client retention and referrals.

Shift 2: Double Down on Content

Content Evolution: From sporadic posts to a structured content calendar and batch creation as it builds trust and creates a point of difference no one else can compete with.
Expanded Offerings: Introducing more done-for-you content creation services, including video and podcast content. You can schedule a call here to discuss how we might be able to help you and your team
Team Involvement: Leveraging the wider team for content creation to enhance personal brands and stand out from competitors.

Shift 3: Entrepreneurship to Connect Work & Play Globally

Global Integration: Increased blending of professional and personal lives, with people seeking flexible, portfolio careers.
International Expansion: We will expand business between Europe, Australia, and the U.S. as we have gained significant interest, highlighting the importance of a strong digital footprint and international connections.
Strategies for Global Work:
- Repackage Your Background: Develop a signature method or framework to monetise skills across markets.
- Create Your Own Opportunities: Embrace entrepreneurship to bypass traditional employment constraints.
- Build a Strong Online Presence: Optimise LinkedIn, personal websites, and social media channels.
- Network Across Borders: Engage in global networking platforms and events.
- Stay Updated on Global Trends: Adapt strategies to align with regional developments.
