1. PERSONAL BRAND EXPLORATION
Valeria Gomez
Project & Portfolio I: Week 3
August 19, 2020

2. There are many marketing managers out there, but none are quite
like me. Integrity and righteousness are at my core, guiding each
and every decision I make. I have the ability to understand people
and what moves them, creating strong connections with those I
meet. I’m passionate about exploring new cultures, and take pride
in my ability to speak English, Spanish and conversational French.
My background working for lawyers has taught me a strong work
ethic, and my experience behind the camera in production has
helped me understand how to imaginatively convey emotion in a
desired target audience. It is thanks to these attributes and
experiences that I seek to embark on a creative journey through
the marketing world and help companies successfully deliver
value to their consumers.
IDENTITY

3. PROFESSION
Potential Job Titles:
• Marketing Director
• Business Development Director
• Brand Manager
Magician and Explorer Archetype
Marketing Manger

4. I want to work in the marketing management field within the entertainment industry. Some of the job
title variations I discovered on OnetOnline.org include Marketing Director, Business Development
Director, and Brand Manager. According to the Kaye Putnam quiz, my brand archetypes are
Explorer and Magician. As an explorer, I would approach my work differently than by being
innovative and finding new ways to create experiences and deliver value to consumers. I would be
creative, take risks and try out new methods and ideas to stay ahead of the competition. Of course,
at the bases of this would be a huge sense of purpose or meaning. Although bold, innovative, and
groundbreaking, the marketing campaigns would have a strong sense of purpose and be based on
data and research. As a Magician, I would use my visionary qualities to find new opportunities that
would help the company grow. I have an eye to see opportunity where others might see problems,
which I believe would really set me apart from the rest. As a result, I would be able to help the
company meet their goals even in difficult times.

12. BRAND POSITION
Leveraging on the uniqueness of diverse audiences
across America through highly targeted digital media
storytelling that will leave you overflowing with
emotion

13. NETWORKING &
MARKETING
Two professional organizations I seek to join over the next two years are the American
Marketing Association (AMA), the Digital Marketing Association (DMA), and the Internet
Marketing Association (IMA).
The primary type of content I will produce and publish online on a regular basis will be
regarding the use of emotion in marketing and business. It will include tips and best
practices on how to build it, capture it and capitalize on it. Also, I will share content
regarding the top industry trends in digital marketing.
The primary social media tools I will use to promote and disseminate my content will be
Instagram and Facebook. I will also use my blog to share more extensive pieces of
information.
I will use my digital portfolio to help market my personal brand online by making sure
that it is linked to all my social media. Also, I will reference it when posting on Facebook
and Instagram and will add it to my email signature. Additionally, I will make sure to
post interesting and engaging content on my blog to ensure increased traffic to my site.
Furthermore, I will share my most successful posts on my LinkedIn for my network to
see and share.

14. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
To become who I want to be professionally, there are several
things I need to accomplish first. In regard to formal education, I
must finish my bachelor in Entertainment Business. I would also
like to obtain an MBA in digital marketing immediately after
graduating from university. In terms of hard skills, I need to learn
how to use CMR software such as Blackbaud The Raiser's Edge,
also learn Google AdWords, Marketo Marketing Automation and
perfect my abilities in Adobe products. I intend to achieve these
objectives by the time I graduate. I also want to continue working
on my French. I plan to start taking classes and wish to become
fluent by 2022. For soft skills, I should keep working on my public
speaking, persuasion, and coordination skills. I want to improve
them by the time I graduate.
I seek to find a mentor or coach that has a similar background to
me and understands the struggles of being a foreigner in a new
country. They should be a senior-level marketing professional
with 20+ years of experience in the entertainment industry and
uphold similar values to my own.
