Stanford SEO / Social Media Course in Silicon Valley – Personal Branding

Andy Warhol once said that in the future everyone will get “15 minutes of fame.” Well, the future has arrived and with it the era of “Personal Branding and Reputation Management.” Personal branding and online reputation management are crucial for individuals, for job seekers, for corporate executives, for almost anyone in the business world. Hiring managers use search engines like Google and Bing and social media sites such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ to vet prospective hires. The public identities of CEOs, managers, and other highly visible members of startups, businesses, and nonprofits are just a click away from anyone: a potential business partner, an investment banker, or a journalist, for example. But on the negative side, your online reputation can be attacked and your own digital footprint made less than ideal.
