One secret is a lot of these people have help.
I know people who are active on social media, who have other people post for them.
They also flesh out articles, and have other people edit and polish them up and so on.
What are you trying to do compete with multiple people being paid to build a brand.
They are also employed in jobs where they are allowed to do these things in work time. They are not heads down workers.

The big names in Tech are definitely not heads-down engineers or aren't on a daily basis. They are paid to travel the country/world, give talks and write books because they are a passive inbound sales engine. Talks, books, etc. generate a LOT of inbound revenue because they establish credibility. Visit their LinkedIn profiles sometime. You'll notice that a giant swath of those big names don't report to Engineering; they report to Sales/Marketing.
- rwc 9y agoIt's surprising how far down the responses this answer is, because those who achieve at the level and across the channels, disciplines, practices you describe most definitely have help. Seriously building a personal brand is not a one person job.
