[...] In a recent article about managing your personal brand online I asked “How confident are you about your online reputation?” and one of our readers here at Biz Growth News then commented: “I’ve googled myself a few times and have found another with my name has a more established identity on the web. That person is a massage therapist and very much into holistic and alternative health cures. I am an IT project manager. We are very different, but share the same name. How can I best differentiate myself from my namesake?” [...]

I’ve googled myself a few times and have found another with my name has a more established identity on the web. That person is a massage therapist and very much into holistic and alternative health cures. I am an IT project manager. We are very different, but share the same brand (name). How can I best differentiate myself from my namesake?

Dan – I personally believe that personal branding has always been relevant – it’s nothing new and successful people have been managing their reputation effectively over thousands of years – it’s just we have a name we can call this now.

Be it personal branding, employer branding or corporate branding – all areas are increasing in interest for people in business which is great and can enhance shareholder value and success for all stakeholders if managed appropriately.

I read this too and believe that this number will quickly multiply. Personal branding will become much more relevant in 2008, as reputation management through Google and social networks become significant.
