Personal branding isn't very different than product branding, except that the entity being branded is you. Just like Nike uses its brand to attach a certain personality and uniqueness to the shoes it sells, your personal brand is made up of the qualities and unique traits you relay about yourself. Your personal brand represents the way you want other people to think about you.
Personal branding hinges on perception and the stories you tell about yourself: the things you emphasize and the things you don't. Does personal branding involve lying? It shouldn't. More than that, it shouldn't have to. You don't need to be a rockstar to build an extraordinary personal brand.
