- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I have some homework to do. Going to read it again in the next few weeks, so that by the end of next month I have some things in place. Thanks for this book
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really enjoyed this book, and got some good ideas on branding when it comes to my career. Many of the ideas in this book would apply to one's personal life too, especially if you have hobbies and areas of interest you'd like to develop.
This is the first book I've read on branding; I think it sets the bar pretty high!
