Well done! I've printed this little book because I'm going to come back to it repeatedly to find new ideas.
Pros:Very actionable guide full of advice on marketing and self-promotion for makers
Cons:Could be longer and the mobi version could be better formatted
I used to dislike marketing, including personal branding, because I always saw it as an inauthentic move to hammer sugar-coated BS into people's minds to make them spend money they wouldn't have spent otherwise.
I mean, that's how most companies, influencers and whatnot use it today.
But then, suddenly, Anne-Laure lets us (Women Make) in on that book-in-progress about personal branding. Let me make that more explicit: someone I find both genuine and good at personal branding wants to teach us about it.
So yup, I had to try. If someone could show me an ethical way to do this, it was her.
I've just finished the book a few minutes ago. As far as I'm concerned, she nailed it. This is an honest, understandable piece on how to present yourself and your work in a relevant way while being true to yourself. It's full of concrete advice that I've already started to put in practice. I definitely recommend reading it. Now I can put myself out there in a way that feels ethical, and I suck a bit less at it! Thanks Anne-Laure!
Pros:Straight-to-the-point, inspirational, actionable
Cons:None
