Here is How I Measure My Personal Brand

In this episode of The Daily Hint with Jens Heitland, we explore the critical importance of measuring your personal brand. It’s easy to get distracted by vanity metrics like likes, comments, and followers, but these don’t necessarily translate into real opportunities such as keynote speaking gigs, new clients, or career promotions.

The key takeaway? Likes aren’t the right metric. Jens compares it to gaining likes on TikTok: while it might boost your social presence, it doesn’t necessarily open doors to meaningful business success.

Instead, Jens advises focusing on measurable steps in your personal funnel—understanding how your audience interacts with your brand and how these interactions convert into real outcomes. You'll get a clearer picture of your brand's impact by tracking the right numbers and paying attention to metrics like engagement from potential clients or inquiries about speaking opportunities.

Whether you’re aiming for a new job, a promotion, or scaling your personal business, it’s time to rethink how you measure personal branding success. This episode offers actionable insights on how to move away from surface-level metrics and align your efforts with real growth. Listen in and start tracking what truly matters for your personal and professional development.
