Mommar here.
If your like me you have run your little heart all the way through the Isle of Thunder and obtained the exalted status with the Kirin Tor Offensive (or of course, the alliance version the Sunreaver Onslaught). If not then it shouldn't be that long til you have finished up.
Now, here is where you get to make a choice. The cache that you obtain from the finale quests of the day can contain a Kirin Tor Offensive Insignia (or again the Alliance version). If you look at the description you get to see that it's Bind to your account. This can become very handy if your leveling new toons on your off times.
Patch 5.2 allowed you to choose bonus reputation for running instances and scenarios (Instances were available from the start of MOP content, scenarios are available at level 90). This becomes important to be able to jump start to get up to the gear that's available both with the Isle of Thunder groups. The Avg player will run between 5-10 instances as they are leveling through the looking for group mechanic. This gives you a good jump of between 1500 to 3000 or more depending on how much you run as your leveling. Even after reaching level 90 you end up in a soft spot between having enough gear to be at raid ilvl and running instances for fun and profit. Making sure you have a useful bonus reputation chosen in your character screen can get you there faster.
If your alts are purely for obtaining more opportunities to obtain gold, this becomes just as important to choose the right reputation. The August Celestials offer the three Epic bracer enchants (Strength, Agility Intellect) and the Klaxxi reputation quartermaster offers both Leatherworking and Blacksmithing patterns that sell well (and will continue to sell well as players level their alternate toons).
Even choosing the Tillers for your non crafting toons can allow you to get to the point of being able to have that 16 plot farm to generate foodstuffs or raw materials depending on the seeds planted.
Gauging just what you want to finish up first with your toon reputation wisely can get you ahead of the curve and on a faster track to wow riches. Plan, execute and profit is your best mantra for the day.
Good Luck and Good Hunting
