Eight Valuable Tips On Effectively Marketing Yourself

We all desire to stand out in a crowd, to be recognized for our unique gifts, valuable skills, and talents.  But how do we stand a chance to stand out in a world saturated with so many people doing the same thing?

Here are six tips PLUS two terrific tips from social guru Tammy Hudgin on how to effectively market yourself and stand out in the crowd.

1. Stay true to you. Your authenticity alone will set you apart from the crowd.  Not being true to who you are at heart only hides your unique personality. Never be afraid to shine!
2. Build relationships.  One of the most important things you can do is build genuine relationships with your current and potential clients/customers.  When you connect with your clients, you make them feel important, because they are important. Spend time getting to know them, ask questions, be curious, and reach out to them and check in every once and awhile.  They will appreciate you even more.
3. Invest in yourself.  Don't stop learning, growing, and bettering yourself in every way possible. When you grow, your business grows. So whether it's taking courses, reading books, or attending workshops, self development will be vital to your success.  The best investment you will ever make is in yourself.  When you invest in yourself, you're investing in the value and knowledge you have to give to others.
   
4. Network and connect with others in your community.  By connecting within your community you will find support, encouragement, and guidance from others. Building relationships with your peers may also lead to referrals and friendships.
5. Give your clients valuable information. Think of the amazing things you can offer that would add value to the lives of others. The more you give, the more you receive.
6. Don't fear competition.  In truth, the only competition you have is with yourself. It's important to strive to be better than the person you were yesterday. When you 'fear' losing clients or customers to your 'competition' you instantly put that out into the Universe, and surely the Universe will comply, so be mindful of your thoughts.
   

Tammy Hudgin is a master of social media and shares her gift of value, time and energy to her clients and community.  She shared with me two tips that she gives her clients to help get their presence seen and known.

1. Showcase your personality in the visuals you use for Social Media. Create fun, animated-type photos of yourself. Think about what messages you can send by the look on your face or by using your hands where you can.
2. Write your own personal quotes and thoughts that provide value and showcase your mind and personality. Use these on pictures of yourself, pictures you have taken, or check out www.pexels.com for free stock photos.
