Here are 12 tips for building an authentic personal real estate brand, based on this book (© Rampersad):

1. Authenticity;you are your brand, always be who you are and live your brand throughyour actions. It must be built on your true personality and reflect your character, behavior, values, and vision. It should therefore be aligned with your personal mission and values. Also, make sure your marketing collateral reflects who you are, so that you will attract clients who identify with you and your abilities.

2. Integrity; you must adhere to the moral and behavioral code set down by your personal mission and values.

3. onsistency;be consistent in your behavior and message and be predictable. Peoplelike to know what to expect. Can they always depend and count on you? Are you doing relevant things again, and again, and again? Statistics have shown that people need to see a message multiple times before it really sinks in.

4.  Focus: focus on one area of specialization (your niche market). Be precise, concentratedon a single core talent or unique skill. Being a generalist with no specialized skills, abilities, or talents will not make you unique, special, and different. So, define your brand with a focused niche to connect with customers you aim to influence.

5. Authority; become a real estate expert. You must be seen as a recognized expert,extremely talented, highly experienced, and perceived as an effective real estate professional. For example, Dave Liniger and Gary W. Keller are seen as an authority in the real estate industry.

6. Distinctiveness; distinguish yourself based on your brand. It needs to be expressedin a unique way that is different from the competition and needs to add value to your customers. It must be clearly defined that its audience can quickly grasp what it stands for.

7 Relevant;what you stand for should connect to what your target audience considers tobe important.

8. Emotions;strong brands tap into emotions. Most buying decisions are based on feelingsand emotions. Find out how to make an emotional connection with your clients and adjust your strategy accordingly.

9. Visibility; it must be broadcast repeatedly, continuously, consistently and repeatedly,until it's embedded in the minds of the audience. It is about repetition and long-term exposure, using a unique selling proposition express in a concise and memorable slogan and with a nice logo, color palette, and design standards that reflect well on your brand. Post a nice picture of yourself on social media and make it your visual signature.

10. Persistence; your brand needs time to grow. It should be developed organically. You have to stick with it, don't give up, believe in yourself, and be patient.

11. Goodwill;people do business with people they like. Your personal brand will producebetter results and endure longer if you are perceived in a positive way. You must be associated with a value that is recognized as positive and worthwhile. For example, since 1992, RE/MAX has been the official real estate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.

12. Performance;if you don't perform, personal real estate branding will be a sham. Your personal real estate brand should therefore be translated into your personal balanced scorecard.

When you are branded according to these criteria and you commit yourself to act accordingly, your brand will be strong, you will distinguish yourself from the crowd, and your target audience will trust you. .....
