3 Reasons Why You Need to Brand Everything! - I’m going to throw another piece of advice out there â€"something I’ve been harping on all week. This week’s motto for me is BRAND EVERYTHING!!! If you’ve read any of our previous articles this week, then you know that I’ve written about what to brand and how. Why should you brand everything? Here are my top three reasons why you need to stop what you’re doing and go brand your job search: 1.Branding is still a relatively new concept. Not everyone has caught on to it yetâ€"and most people don’t use it. If this doesn’t send up a red flag to you proclaiming, “HELLO! MAJOR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE HERE!” then I don’t know what will. Seriously, start branding today. 2. Aside from the fact that the majority of job seekers aren’t doing it, branding itself holds its own advantages. Branding is much like your reputation; so by incorporating it into your documents, you are directing the reputation that hiring authorities view and perceive about who you are as a job seeker. 3. Because you are NOT everyone elseâ€"and if you don’t tell the hiring manager that, he will never knowâ€"it’s your responsibility to make sure you portray yourself in a compelling, distinct, and succinct way. No one else is going to do that for youâ€"certainly not your competitionâ€"and the hiring manager isn’t going to waste the time trying to find it. So be your own best advocate; start branding every element of your job search today, and make sure that each aspect of your search that you’re branding is crystal clear and gives the same message, no matter where you are. If you’re ready to drastically improve your resume response rate, then I strongly suggest you become a brand-minded job seeker. Brand-driven job searches are more successful than bland-driven ones. Considering that 77% of job seekers who use branded, professionally written resumes are more likely to be interviewed, I’d say the odds are in your favor.
