Google yourself. If you rank within the top hits on the first page of Google, then you are doing great!

It means you exist and that you to be screened easily by the prospect. Your social media profile will be accessible and if you have a blog/website with your name, you can be pretty much in control what gets seen on line.

The Good…

If you are not ranking within the first two pages of Google, then you are invisible and have no presence.

With no presence, you can NEVER make a impact.

If you fail to make an impact, how are you going to get those clients or that dream job?

In other words YOU DON’T EXIST!

The Bad…

Page 11: Establishing Your Digital Profile

www.impactfasttrack.comwww.impactfasttrack.com

You rank high on Google, but your name is tainted.

It could be a personal vendetta by someone you have wronged, embarrassing written content, an inappropriate photo of you, or actually you could just be dishonest.

Whatever it is, clean it up!

Although if you are dishonest, then this will always resurface unless you change your ways, FOREVER!

The Ugly…
