The world is filled with billions of people and each person has something different to offer. However, some people share the same skills with thousands of other people. Given the competition, how do you make sure you stand out from the thousands of other people? I have an answer for you though, make yourself a brand.

In the book, Telling Your Story, Developing Your Brand, the author Henry Wong explores what personal branding is. You can make yourself better and more desirable in the market by building yourself as a brand. You also tell your story to others until they know that you exist. You can get yourself a copy of this book to find out more about branding and how to successfully build a brand.

I liked this book because it taught me that I am more than just a person. Before reading this book, I would have answered some questions differently. For example, if I were asked what my favorite brand is, I would have probably mentioned a big company like Apple or Chanel. However, after reading this book, my answer to that question is different. I am my favorite brand and I want to tell my story until the market has no choice but to choose me.

This book is also simple to understand and comprehend because the author uses simple language. The layout of the book is also commendable. This book has different chapters, questions, song lyrics, and diagrams among others. You can tell them apart, which means that this book is well organized.

There is nothing I disliked about this book, so I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve themselves as a brand because it teaches the reader how to become a brand. Companies can also use this book to grow and develop their brands because the information provided also applies to companies.

You are your favorite brand! I love this. Branding can feel ambiguous as a concept, and I interpret from your review that you enjoyed the structured way that this information was organized and presented.

Your review makes me even more eager to read this book. Thank you for writing this review.

The fact that this book influenced you to change your answer to " I am my favorite brand and I want to tell my story until the market has no choice but to choose me", makes it a worthwhile book to read. It gave you a positive message. I am curious about the subject of branding. Your review has piqued my interest in it. I am adding this book to my bookshelves. Great review!

Wow, this sounds great. I like what you got out of reading this book. My husband is a businessman and has always told people this: he supports him ( he is his own favorite brand), then connects and supports others.
I have always enjoyed this concept and appreciate that there is a book with a similar perspective on this. I will add it to my bookshelves for a later read!
