LET’S TALK ABOUT TWO SIMPLE WAYS TO HELP BUILD YOUR PERSONAL
BRAND ONLINE
• About.Me
• LinkedIn.com
![Page 4: Apra greater houston winter work shop](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081516/55bffbf9bb61eb5a288b4633/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
About.me is a simple online service acquired by AOL and serves like an E-Business card.
About.me allows you to include your bio, personal pictures, and connect your personal
and Business website, blog, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook pages, and
Google Plus.

1. Build Your Online Presence
It’s a great place to start, or improve your presence on the web. About.me has a really good reputation online and is trusted by Google as one of the main sources of information about professionals, artists and online users.

2. Public Profile
You will go public in no time and visitors don't have to sign up to see any of your information.
Creating an account will most probably land you on the first page on Google search, and will gain great presence and more turf in the online landscape.

3. Market Your Business
Use it for managing your brand and reputation. Drive awareness to your business with a simple, beautiful page. About.Me gives you an option to integrate all your social channels in one location, as a social hub,while allowing you to add links to your sites and other personal pages. This will in turn create more awareness and send quality traffic to your brand. A lot of recruiters take into consideration the online effort that applicants put into place. Adding an About.me profile to your online application will give an advantage over other applicants or compositors.

WHERE DO I START?
• Have you ever had an excellent review or received a fabulous compliment during a conversation with someone you work with?
• Why not ask them if they could turn that compliment into a LinkedIn recommendation?
• Recommendations are your online references
• Suggest that you can send them a summary of the compliment recently given and let them add their personal touch to a recommendation
