Whether you like it or not, we live in a world where your online reputation can be your strongest asset or biggest liability. According to Edelman Research, 65% of internet users see online search as the most trusted source of information about people and companies. Indeed, even when consumers have a referral, they start their buying process online.

That’s why a terrific online presence lends credibility and gets customers excited, while a bad or irrelevant online presence turns customers away.

So how can you stand out from the crowd and establish yourself as a key person of influence in the eyes of others in your industry? The answer is simple: By raising your profile and building a strong personal brand.

But where to get started? What channels should you focus on? How do you figure out who your target audience is? And how do you connect with mentors and influencers who can help you grow?

In the world of entrepreneurship and business, you are who Google says you are. Being good at what you do is no longer enough. You also need to stand out and be recognised if you truly want to make a dent.
