		<description>[...] I encourage you to remember the analogy my uncle held &#8211; because just like the land, there is only so much space on page one of Google.  And just like the land &#8211; once it is taken, it gets kind of expensive to earn your share.  Stick around on our blog as we show you the best personal marketing tool available to you.  We will also give you tips and tricks and ideas and niche markets &#8211; as well as digital branding, networthing and show you how to tame the Gorelephant.

		<title>Comment on Writing a Bio That Will Promote Your Personal Brand by Vikram Rajan</title>

		<description>I help my clients write bio&#039;s for their articles, books, and when introduced at seminars.  

&quot;You need to have some flair,&quot; is probably the best thing you wrote (of all the great tips above).  Most professionals, especially my kind of clients (lawyers, accountants, financial advisors), lack that &quot;flair&quot; in their bio&#039;s... but naturally have  a great &quot;people-personality.&quot;  

They need to feel allowed, &quot;empowered,&quot; to showcase their inner brand...

Often, our bio can make us feel &quot;too pompous,&quot; since we may sound better on paper, than what we feel on the inside.  In that case, still write achievements that are in the process of becoming in the present tense.  In this way, our bio serves as a handy Affirmation - for us to brainwash ourselves with, let alone others!

My latest blog post, coincidentally, includes a &quot;fill-in-the-blanks&quot; template I give out to participants at private and public workshops... here it is:

feel free to use it as you wish.</description>
