    Your Most Valuable Asset – Your Personal Database

    By corbettpr | Blog, branding, crisis communications, Long Island PR, marketing, micro branding, personal branding, PR, public relations, social media, Uncategorized | 0 comment | 17 September, 2009 | 0

    In today’s market many business owners and individuals in sales are struggling.  For many the numbers are down and they place all the blame on the economy and changing markets.   While this is true for some, we all have to face reality and make the most out of what we have been given.  No matter what industry you are in today, there are companies that are doing better than others.   Why are some succeeding and others falling short?  There are also many individuals in sales and business development who are doing better than others.

    Why are some succeeding when others are failing?   Part of the answer is relationships and trust; people who build strong relationships will be able to rely on these relationships in good times but more importantly during slow times.    The other part of the answer is data.   When I speak of data I am referring to an individual’s personal database of contacts.  Individuals who create and maintain these databases and use them to market not only the products and services they sell but to brand themselves are doing it right.  These people are marketing smart and building their own personal brands.   The brands that they are building today will be used for years to come no matter where an individual’s career or life takes them.

    How can you build your own personal brand?  Start by building a comprehensive database of contacts.   This database can become your most valuable asset.  It will allow you to communicate directly with clients, prospects and referral sources.    If used properly, this database will be the source of future business, relationships and success.

    • 2018 – Lessons from the Founding Fathers for Social Media and Personal Branding- July 4th Independence Day

      By corbettpr | 6 comments

      While the Founding Fathers did not have social media vehicles and platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, Youtube, Flickr and Foursquare I am sure that they would have taken advantage of them as mediums for communicating with contacts, public, friends and others interested in “the cause.” Social networking and marketing did not exist, but these individuals knew the importance of publicity, having a personal brand, word of mouth marketing, networking, effective writing, publishing and public speaking. Do these skills and approaches sound familiar? These techniques and others are the same that individuals need to capitalize on today to build their own personal brands, the foundation for a success in life, in business and in any community.

    • Do You Need to Have a Social Media Marketing Plan?

      By corbettpr | 0 comment

      We saw in the early and mid 1990s the growth of the internet. Businesses started to create websites and the “Field of Dreams” movie quote “If you build it they will come” was often used. We found over the years that this is the farthest thing from the truth. The truth is that if you build it they might come but probably won’t.

      So if you see some idiot texting while driving or texting while crossing the street, give them a dirty look, beep at them or give them the universal hand gesture of disapproval. If you get them to stop this highly risky behavior you may be saving their lives and possibly your own.
