Once you establish your color, it will be come apparent when people will remember you by your color without you even telling them. My color at GM in engineering was pink..I left notes on pick note paper, signed in pink and even wore pink. If I left a note and forgot to sign the paper, people knew where it came from without asking around.

Now days my signature color is my unique "Red" hair color. In today's interactive media channels it is a quick way for people to find me based on my pictures. I tend to wear colors around that make my hair color pop and not blend in. People that have only met me once remember me for my signature color.
