Method to the Mayhem

Thank you very much Vocus and Stacey Miller for featuring me, as an example of great "Personal Branding" in the Vocus webinar "Brand Yourself Better."

Want to stand out and become a more successful marketer? Brand yourself better, says Stacey Miller, a finalist for Oracle's Community Manager of the Year.

Your personal brand is what people see when they view you professionally. Just like a product brand delivers sales, the personal 'X-factor' delivers opportunities, new contacts, bigger projects and more influence.

Thank you Melonie Gallegos from Brands with Fans for featuring me in her blog post, "Think Outside the Blog, How To Find Hidden Influence."

The post is about Influencer Outreach and thinking outside the box in finding influencers. How you might be overlooking influence in other channels. Social influence is everywhere from Twitter to Pinterest. Marketing is becoming more visual, you might be surprised how much impact a single photo may have.

In 2010, Calvin Lee @MayhemStudios was called a "Twitter Marketing Phenomenon" by Forbes. While he has a blog, it wasn’t blogging that made him famous. He’s kind of a big deal on Twitter, Instagram and other social networks. 

Calvin is sought after by major consumer brands to try their products and spread the word to his 82,000+ followers. Why so influential you might wonder? It’s not that complicated.  

He’s genuinely an all around nice guy whom people trust and who loves sharing. Trust is a key ingredient.
