I believe I am pretty good at self promoting. I do it by engaging with colleagues in the following way: “You need help? Of course I’ll help you with that.” “Yes, I helped Carl with that thing”. “Carl and I build this thing, it was his idea, I did x” “Yo Carl, I like working with you. I have this idea, can you help me?” “No, I don’t have time to help you with the same thing that I helped Carl with. I am working on x right now, maybe later”. Also seeking advice from colleagues is a pretty low key way of self promoting. You are showing that you are working on stuff. So be generous and at the same time set boundaries so people won’t take advantage of you. I would err on the generous side, my experience is people seldom take advantage.
