At the end of the day one of the best parts of being an entrepreneur is the opportunity to be your own boss and create your own destiny. You get to make all of the decisions, create everything you’re selling, and manage your business in the way that you think is best. So why are you leaving yourself out of the equation when it comes to making your business stand out from all the rest? This week’s Gig Economy is all about how to infuse your business with its most valuable asset – yourself!
Let Your Personality Show
If you’ve been working hard to make your social media sound like you’ve got nothing to do with it, then you might just be doing it all wrong. You are the driving force behind your business and you are the key ingredient that makes your work different from all others. Check out this article from Mashable about how and why to let your personality shine through in your business social media postings.
Be Your Brand
Have you heard of a minimum viable product? This is the idea of the absolute bare essentials that you need in order to make a product viable in the market. Well, your personal brand also needs to be viable in order for your enterprise to succeed! If you have been hiding behind your business, read this post from our blog about why you should actually be the face of your business and how to go about creating your own personal brand.
Build Connections to Better Yourself
We all know that networking is key for any entrepreneur, but it can also be another situation where you may struggle in showing your unique personal value to a possible connection. This is another situation where it’s critical that you show people who you are and why they should want to be connected to you. Networking is a two way street, and this Geektime article is full of great ideas of ways to build strategic relationships.
Timing is Everything
One of the things we try to do on the Fiverr blog is to help entrepreneurs figure out the best way to run their unique business based on universal principles of best practices. One thing that is standard is that clients want their orders in a reasonable time frame and sellers who offer fast delivery times get more work. However, speed isn’t everything! Check out this post on why good timing is important but doesn’t mean doing everything at warp-speed.
