Introduction to Blow Your Own Horn: Personal Branding for Business Professionals by Rae A. Stonehouse

Blow Your Own Horn There’s an old saying that goes “the squeaky wheel… gets the grease.” The saying may have been true at one point in time but now…

The business world is a busy and crowded place. How can a business professional standout from the cacophony of others clambering for attention and recognition?

In this world of digital technology, a world where we are as close as 3° of separation to almost anybody in the world, many so-called technological gurus would have us believe we can easily create an on-line persona, a digital makeover if you will.

I would agree with the statement, to a certain extent. It seems daily we hear of fake restaurant or book reviews. We hear of identity theft where unscrupulous characters have stolen someone’s ID for fraudulent purposes by creating false identities from what they are able to gather from public sources.

If it is so easy for someone to create these bogus on-line identities, how can we then trust any self-promotional material we view on-line?

I believe creating your on-line persona is important however, it is but one step at a self-promotional and marketing strategy.

This book oﬀers a collection of strategies to build your on-line presence and gain recognition in your community.
