Advice:
Leverage all you possible can.
Your brand is your most important thing besides your product.
Find that little niche and run it, make it yours. Don't copy what everybody else is doing.
Either get a website going or get an e-mail list going and just engage with people.
Send them a weekly update. Send out a little digest.
For your personal brand you could do a weekly recap of your favorite moment or your most valuable lesson of the week for others that are trying to follow in your footsteps. Whatever it maybe. Do something that sets you apart from others.
Highlights:
Ben talks about how his passion for gaming started with playing NES with his father and also going to Magic the Gathering tournaments in addition to doing his own tournaments with friends and family.
Later he got lost in World of Warcraft.
We talk about how the experiences in games and in MMO's in particular, whether in Player versus Player or in the cooperative setting of raids, can teach you valuable life lessons in getting humbled and being humble.
Later he started building and repairing computers and that led to starting his own company. That it turn led to making websites, and optimising those to get more traffic.
Fair warning: we talk quite a bit about cryptocurrencies and especially Steem and the Steemit platform, as that is where Ben is focused at the moment.

I really like the insights I got from this. I like to listen to podcasts anyway. I was taken back to my childhood, playing Super Mario bros with my dad.
I was lost in World of Warcraft too, for about 8 years. I don't regret the memorys I have from this time, I only regret that i had neglected my friends for a while. This was the reason why i quit and became very carefull when i start an MMORPG.

I love how Ben expresses himself. He's like a big ball of knowledge who happens to be very friendly. I always learn something new when I engage with him. I'm very interested in growing my own brand and expand who I am and what I want to do, so he's really helped me out. Loved the podcast, looking forward for the next one!
