Cord Cooper's column:

Selling a Different Brand

Here's a short excerpt from "IBD's 10 Secrets to Success" that featured U R a BRAND! on April 3, 2006:

"No matter who you are or what you do, you're selling a product. Yourself.

How well you do it will determine your long-germ marketability, notes ad veteran Catherine Kaputa in her new book, "U R A BRAND: How Smart People Brand Themselves for Business Success." "

The article features the following self-branding tactics from the book:
  • Prioritize your target markets
  • Create loyal clients
  • Develop a clear value proposition
  • Build an emotional bond
  • Think effect and cause, not cause and effect
  • Attract through "soft power"

"(Soft Power) means using your point of view, personal style and values to win others to your way of thinking…your bearing – the way you inhabit space, Kaputa says. ..Another key is comportment – knowing how to behave in expected and unexpected situations, regardless of how many eyes are on you."

Wall Street Journal Online, June 8, 2004
Catherine Kaputa was interviewed for an article on the brand image of Wall Street firms and the kind of advertising and PR that works in light of the mutual funds and other scandals that have plagued financial firms.
