KEYNOTE:
360⁰ Branding: Building Marketable Value from Every Angle
Employees are not commodities to be bought and sold. Yet, they are assets; those which are routinely judged for immediate and long-term value. From interviews to performance reviews and every event in between, we are judged from all angles: by how we speak, dress, write, think, act, perform and project. We are judged close up in the workplace and from a distance online. These judgments determine whether we're hired, retained, and promoted—or not. Don't get nervous; get busy building your 360⁰ brand.
Corporations create and manage their brand around the 4 basic principles of marketing: Product, Price, Place, and Promotion. They do this for a reason. Companies that have vision, constantly evolve, and stay in touch with consumers drive past the competition. They grow and profit. Professionals, both aspiring and seasoned, can leverage these principles to reap the benefits!
This presentation will reveal traditional and progressive strategies to help students/alumnae:
1) Clearly define and enhance their product;
2) Determine where to place their talents;
3) Price and present their worth;
4) Craft consistent messaging across all mediums;
5) Perpetuate their self-marketing tool kit.
Professionals who treat themselves like a business will remain relevant and employable!
Join us and learn how to build a 360⁰ brand that makes a great impression from every angle, sets one apart from the pack, and helps nurture a fulfilling, lucrative career.
