This is a presentation I made for Tokyo Blogger Meet-up. The theme of the presentation I was given was "Self-Branding". Now that I think of it, I'm not really trying to make my self branding. Everything just happened and came naturally. I guess brad is not something you try to make. It's what you find within yourself.

1. 第20回東京ブロガーミートアップ
「ブログのセルフブランディングについて」
2014/06/11
『日曜アーティストの工房』TOMAKI

2. セルフブランディングってなんだ？
自分らしさを見つけること
自分らしさを形にすること
自分らしさを伝えること
自分らしさ＝ キャラ、フェチ、得意分野、、、

3. 自分の「ブランド」とは？
ブランディングって自分勝手につくるものじゃなく、
自分の中にあるものを見つけて伝えるものかな、と。
好きを見つける。
好きを伝える。
好きでつながる。

4. 踊りが好きなら踊ればいい、歌が好きなら歌えばいい。
たとえ最初は拍手がなかったとしても。（好きって大事）
「好き」が自分の強みになる

5. さぁ、伝えよう
伝える
伝わる
伝えてもらう
