I want to congratulate Dan Schawbel, publisher of Personal Branding Magazine, on completing the first full volume of the magazine. I’ve been honored to write a column for each issue, and hope to continue bringing perspectives and adding value to the quarterly publication.
Just about a year ago, Dan Schawbel started with an idea for a magazine focused on building brand YOU. He recruited some great bloggers and individuals in the personal branding arena and put together the first issue of PBM later that summer. Now with the fourth issue of volume one ready to launch on May 1st, the first full volume is complete.
Here is Dan’s introduction to Issue 4:
Volume 1 Issue 4 ends the first full volume of Personal Branding Magazine. As personal branding becomes the differentiator for career development, many new channels have opened up and the Internet is a recruiting stomping ground for all those who leverage it’s power. Between hiring candidates by viewing video resumes, employer brand websites, and even job aggregators, the times have changed and we must be ready. Human resources is rapidly evolving by branding their companies as the employer of choice and there is a sudden war for talent, despite an economic recession in the United States. In this issue, we interview all the thought leaders who are entering the online recruiting and branding space, as well as take a closer look as to how networking plays a role in bridging recruiters with interested applicants. Only the strongest employers and candidates will survive. By reading this issue, you will have the knowledge needed in order to confront the recruitment process and be victorious.

I’d like to point you to Issue 2 of Personal Branding Magazine. While this publication is still quite young, there is significant traction with the authors, editors and publisher Dan Schawbel. This issue breaks new ground for the magazine with several new contributing writers, reporters, editing staff and sponsorships.
While this is a non-profit magazine with all proceeds going directly to The American Cancer Society, the quality and coverage is top notch. With articles from thought leaders and experts in personal branding, you will find many helpful ideas and techniques that will help promote your greatest asset – yourself.
Dan kicks off the excitement with a cover story on none other than GE’s Jack Welch. Also included is an interview with Philip Rosedale, the founder of SecondLife. With an updated format for easier reading, and many reader-suggested improvements, Issue 2 has been a work of professionalism, and the desire to provide you with real-world ideas and information.
I’ve had the pleasure of working on a great new project with a number of really great people over the last month or two. The project is the new Personal Branding Magazine, in which I’ve been a contributing author, and I’d like to alert you to the premier issue which you can find here.
The magazine will be published electronically on a quarterly basis, and all proceeds go to charity – the American Cancer Society. An Annual subscription is $12.95, and advertising opportunities are available for individuals and organizations (see Personal Branding Magazine site for details).
