How are you building your tech coach brand?

	How do I, as a coach, want to be known?

	What do I want to be known for or known as?


	Am I the Google lady? Am I the Microsoft Guru? Am I the BreakoutEDU lady, etc., etc.? 





	What do your teachers or administrators say about you when you enter the room or get introduced at a staff meeting?

	Have a niche, know your staff (avatars as Jeff refers to) and what they need and what you can offer them.

	Make it about your “client” - the teachers you work with - find something that will make what they already are doing easier or more efficient.

	 Don’t be afraid to make connections with vendors for products that you use and promote as a tech coach to your teachers.

	Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there, it’s not bragging - It is letting people know how you can help and where they can go to find help.

Ways to build the brand?

Tech Coach Website - What is on it?

	Be intentional about having your teacher visit your site. Make it hub that you direct them to with personal follow later

	Video Tutorials/YouTube Channel


	Personal video vs. self-made general tutorial

	Social Media
