Jobseekers in the 2020s may have had a social media profile since before birth
Google creates your first impression
Even more important for reputation managers – judged on reputation
Impossible to separate personal & professional – but advisable to create distinction
now…

Brand definition:A product or service to which people attach a bunch of tangible (functional product and service characteristics) and intangible (emotional and/or symbolic) meanings that add value.A brand’s purpose is to differentiate itself from competitors.
So, value in combining personal with professional and showing a distinct, individual character online

Recognise the need to tailor content to different channels but be aware that you’re always building an overall picture of brand ‘you’.
You can keep them distinct but you can’t always keep them separate.
![Page 17: Matt Appleby personal vs professional](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052617/5442cef4b1af9f130d8b4790/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
#CIPRSM#CIPRSM
Tell a consistent ‘brand’ story across all your (public) channels.
Your personal interests can strengthen your professional reputation.
No need to maintain a ‘professional persona’ but what goes on tour needs to stay on tour.

Biog makes it clear what you’ll tweet about
I can use other accounts (work, blogs) for specific content and use my own to share only what’s relevant
Did maintain separate profiles, but try to avoid a split ‘me’ online
twitter is a challenge

It will always be bad manners – but social networks have put PR people on the same stage
The Alastair Campbell paradox – so good at managing the story that you become part of it
But also an opportunity to build a better public understanding of our profession by showing a diversity of ‘human’ role models

Conversations among human beings sound human. They are conducted in a human voice. (3)
Markets do not want to talk to flacks and hucksters. They want to participate in the conversations going on behind corporate firewalls. (62)
We know some people from your company. They’re pretty cool online. Do you have any more like that you’re hiding? Can they come out and play? (84)

The networks we build are not neatly separated into personal and professional.
Findability is key – how do we create content which will bring others to us?
