Best read for personal branding

This is the real deal for those seeking personal branding understanding. After researching so much fluff, this was the most comprehensive and realistic approach. Consistency is key! Only drawback: Mark needs to speed up his reading. Heard it at 1.25x and sounded normal.

Bought both audio and paperback!

I've now listened to it for at least 3 times in a row, and each time new ideas pop into my head. Ended up purchasing the book to turn it into a workbook, scribbling and making notes as I go. Thank you for such a helpful and useful guide.

Informative and interesting with actual takeaways

Mark weaves real stories through actionable steps. There is no fluff in this book but you will not feel lectured at either. It's clear the depth of research that went on and the care to present that research so you will come away with the why, what and how.
