Lisa and Tommy talk about Tiger Woods and his latest headlines. Was the right PR strategy for Tiger to say nothing? Or would a more upfront approach be a better strategy? NOTE: This video was taken a few days after the news first broke.

I was asked by Rebecca Corliss @hubspot marketing to do this blog posting. I was so extied, but when she told me she wanted me to do a video blog posting, I was even more excited. I feel this is where my personality really shines. THANKS Rebecca and thanks HubSpot for your faith in me!!

Thomas Clifford, or @tommytrc, is a personable guy who loves creating videos for his kids, blogging, and building relationships on Twitter as the top Twitterer in Wisconsin. He’s given talks on how to “Be a Social Media Rock Star,” inspiring audiences to develop strong relationships in social media.
Tommy is a great example of someone who has used his personality to create a strong online (and offline) network. He holds nothing back, even sharing the the birth of his son with his online network by live-tweeting.
In the video below, Tommy talks about what building a personal brand means to him, and how being yourself online can help your business. Who wants to do business with people they don’t like?

Here are Tommy’s three steps to building a personal brand:
1) Start slow. The number of tools available can be overwhelming. Pick one or two, learn them, and move on. You’re not going to tackle the whole world overnight.
2) Just do it. There are plenty of excuses not to try, but social media is an experiment. You don’t know what does work until you find out what doesn’t work.
3) Be yourself. Don’t be a fake person or a robot. If people fall in love with you on a personal level, they are certainly going to want to do business with you on a professional level.
Who do you know and/or appreciate for their strong personal brand?
Below are some of my presentations and video speaking engagements that I have been involved in. I try to keep it up to date

So a few weeks ago, @mmangen set up this awesome afternoon lunch tweetup at one of the best Mexican Restaurants in town, Solea. They have a new location in Neenah with this great outdoor patio. I was joined by my sweetie, Mrstommytrc, Baby Drew as well as the usual twitter suspects, @tvorse, @saranisler, @kalalea, and his sweetie @debsoul. I knows there are others, but I have lost their names, so please excuse my forgetfulness.
Well the whole reason for this posting, is the picture they took of us on the patio, was used in a full page as in the Scene magazine. How cool is that!!!!
Yeah for good friends yeah for tweetups and yeah for Baby Drew!!!!
