Platform: The Art and Science of Personal Branding

In her new book with Penguin Random House, top industry expert Cynthia Johnson gives the why-to and how-to to everyone looking to develop and manage a personal brand, find an audience, and nurture their followers in the digital age. This indispensable guide to developing a personal brand is available wherever books are sold on February 5th.

Platform: The Art and Science of Personal Branding, is an honest and thought-provoking guide about effectively navigating the current digital landscape using the power of storytelling and marketing to proliferate influence through one’s personal brand. As the boundaries between the digital world and our physical world come together, it is as important than ever to be able to differentiate yourself against competitors, both on and offline. Understanding how to channel genuine engagement and create meaningful relationships is a necessary skill set for entrepreneurs, speakers, and professionals, across various industries, alike, in order to achieve their goals.

“I believe I’ve created something very versatile,” says Cynthia Johnson. “Personal branding is a strategic element anyone can utilize to proliferate influence and, in turn, accomplish their goals. However, not only does my book explore different avenues to take, but it also then fuels the reader’s imagination and desire to turn the concept of personal branding into something entirely their own. It’s in the name – a story must be raw, genuine and personal. I’m hoping to prepare the readers of my book for a journey they may not have known they needed or even wanted.”
