# Personal Branding
A personal brand is what people can predict about you. That means it comes from
narrowness and repetition, not from posting more. This skill picks the lane,
finds the point of view, and builds the engine that sustains it.
## When to use
- You post regularly and nobody can say what you're known for.
- You're a founder whose distribution advantage is your own audience.
- You're changing roles, industries, or starting to sell your own product.
- You want inbound — hiring, sales, speaking — instead of outbound.
## Inputs
- **Required:** what you know, who you want to reach, and what you want it to produce.
- **Optional:** your existing posts and their performance, your background, and how much time per week you'll genuinely commit.
## Method
1. **Pick one lane, narrower than feels comfortable.** "Marketing" is not a lane. "Pricing for B2B SaaS under $10M ARR" is. Narrow gets known; broad gets ignored.
2. **Find your unfair angle.** The intersection of your experience, your evidence, and something most people in the lane get wrong. That intersection is the whole brand.
3. **Define the goal in advance.** Inbound leads, hiring, fundraising, speaking, or an audience to launch to. The goal decides platform, format, and what you refuse to post about.
4. **Build three to five recurring content buckets.** Teardowns, contrarian takes, behind-the-scenes numbers, playbooks, or answers to questions you get asked. Buckets remove the blank page every time you sit down.
5. **Show the work, not the wisdom.** Real numbers, real failures, real screenshots. Generic advice from an unknown person is worth nothing; specific evidence from a practitioner is worth a lot.
6. **Commit to a sustainable cadence.** Two posts a week for a year beats daily for six weeks and silence. Set the cadence to your worst week, not your best.
7. **Be a person, consistently.** A recognizable voice with real opinions outperforms a polished corporate one, and it's the only defensible moat here.
8. **Convert deliberately, occasionally.** Audience without a path to your product is a hobby. One in five posts can point somewhere; more than that and the audience discounts everything.
9. **Review quarterly.** Which bucket earned reach, which earned inbound. They're rarely the same, and knowing the difference is what makes this compound.
## Output format
- **Lane**: the narrow territory you intend to own
- **Angle**: your unfair intersection of experience, evidence, and disagreement
- **Goal**: what the audience is for
- **Buckets**: three to five recurring content types, with examples
- **Cadence plan**: what you post, where, how often
- **Voice notes**: the patterns that make it recognizably yours
- **Conversion path**: how audience becomes pipeline, and how often you say so
## Personal brand norms
- Narrowness is the entire strategy. Resist broadening.
- Nobody follows a person with no opinions.
- Consistency over intensity — this compounds over years, not weeks.
- Reach and inbound are different metrics; track them separately.
