بسیار مفید و کاربردی برای صاحبان مشاغل

[Rudolfo · Rating 3 out of 5]

Repetitive. Everyone knows you need a website and business cards. Although I guess it can be said that people don't do it. The author drills into your head, his favorite tactics for getting known, many of them over-priced for the average Joe. However, I like the idea of using your own name So your personal brand. I suppose it lends legitimacy to your operation. As always, let's hope you can do the job. Informing visitors as to what you do, and giving them the option of contacting you so that you can do it for them is prime. There,now you don't need to read the book.

This book desperately needs an updated edition. Only 20% of this applies in the current marketplace.

ساخت برند شخصی یکی از دغدغه های امروزی ست که به واسطه ی ازدحام اطلاعات و حجوم مارکتینگ صورت گرفته، این کتاب به شما کمک میکند تا علاوه بر ساخت برندشخصی از پایه ، برندتان را چطور با لحن مناسب در فضاهای مختلف پیاده سازی کنید.
چیزی که برایم در این کتاب جالب بود توجه نویسنده به جزئیات است، همان جزئیاتی که اصلی ترین پایه های یک برندشخصی است و مهم ترین چیزی که میتواند ما را به عنوان یک فردیت واحد شناخته شده معرفی کند همین ساختن برندشخصی ست، چیزی که کپی برداری نیست و فقط خاص خودمان است.

very out of date for today

Very out of date for 2025. Some parts can be useful however a great deal of the material is out of date. There might be a later version of this book that i have not read.

Great book on branding. Learned a lot.

really bad self-help book. If you know absolutely nothing about the title then perhaps you should read this book. I am, however hoping you know what/who you are and have heard the word brand before...
