BRANDING YOURSELF ON TWITTER
by JAWAR
The appropriate way to brand yourself over Twitter includes doing the following. 1. Include a clear photo of yourself. A headshot is preferred because you’ll tend to get a better shot. The photo should speak to your professional brand. If you are a comedian you’ll obviously want a picture smiling unless of course you are the “mad comedian” in that case you’ll want something serious. The point here is to have a clear and professional photograph that compliments your personal brand or image. People should look at your picture and have some idea to the type of work you may do. While it’s great to use a photo from a professional photo shoot, it’s not mandatory unless that’s the type of image you are conveying as it relates to your brand. 2. You’ll want a background that compliments your photo and overall personal brand. Having colors, text sizes and fonts that compliment your official website, blog and other offline marketing material is generally a great idea as people will immediately identify with some part of your brand they’ve experienced before.
