If you want to take your personal branding to the next level or boost your online presence in the long term, then you'll never go wrong with Bitmoji! Like emojis, they are social avatars that can be customised to your tastes.


Bitmoji are used mainly on Snapchat or by most teaching staff, however they can also be used on other social media platforms, gaming and even content that is created on Canva. The first step is to create your Bitmoji if you haven't so!

Uses in Canva


Bitmoji is available as a Canva plugin, so simply connect your Snapchat account with Canva! Now you have a huge range of stickers to play around with, whether they can be used on a personalised Zoom background or cover artwork for YouTube. There's endless creative possibilities thanks to Canva.


For me, here's a snippet of my personal brand style guide, featuring my commonly used stickers.



The most important stickers I have used include standing up, sitting down, face only, thumbs up and jumping for joy! Just like in the physical world, try to dress your avatar with smart casual and professionalism while expressing your brand personality, like this one being more energetic and cool.


Conclusion


If you're trying to up your personal brand and express your brand personality, then you'll never go wrong with creating your own Bitmoji! Having a snapchat account is highly recommended but optional. Your Bitmoji should still be dressed appropriately and in smart casual outfit if used in the world of business. This should be a piece of cake!
