Ari, 100% agree that the WHY comes before the HOW. Although this article is mostly a list of applicable tips, your point is worth mentioning in the general guidelines up top. Thanks for pointing out the distinction.

Jacob, I haven’t told you this before, but I think it’s great your last name, part of your personal brand, is “Share” — it instantly connects me to thinking about you sharing knowledge like this.

“If there is no such brand-related community, organize one.” is incredibly true. There are missing opportunities where you can stand up and be a leader. It can scary, but indelibly rewarding.

Echoing the bandwagon, Jacob, you’ve summarized a great collection of branding tips. I’d like to take slight issue with two of them, though:

# The people you admire and how you admire them.
The people you dislike and how you dislike them.

Perhaps the word choice should be “why,” and not “how?” The reasoning is branding is as much about intrinsic values as external actions.If you don’t know WHY you admire someone, the action of HOW you show it won’t flow as smoothly.
