#1 New Release in Public Relations on Amazon
Personal Branding: A Manifesto on Fame & Influence
A 376-page expansion of the 2021 original: in the author's own words, “a continuation and remarkably more mature look,” and “a far more thorough deep-dive” rather than a light revision. Edited by Eric Chow and Michelle Fongeallaz. Cover art by Alexander Stephens.
Eight chapters and 78 subchapters run from Education and The 4 Laws of Personal Branding through Mindset, Branding, Reputation Management, Marketing, and Personal Skills to Sustainability, with an essay on Identity Positioning™ set between chapters seven and eight. Each subchapter closes with Q (Question), T (Task), or A (Apply) prompts, so the book is worked through, not only read.
Both editions reached Amazon's Top 10 in Public Relations. The Second Edition surpassed its predecessor in both rankings and sales.
At its peak, the Manifesto ranked in Amazon's Top 10 Best Sellers in Public Relations, the same chart led by Edward Bernays' Propaganda, the founding text of the discipline.
