SHOW NOTES
One of the things we know to be true is that we all want to work with experts. When we’ve got a problem no one sits around wondering who is an average solution provider I can get to solve my problem on the cheap.
Our first thought is I have a problem and need an expert to solve it. We’ll figure out how to pay for it later.
Our own target audience feels the same way.
And in today’s crowded online market place and even in the noisy offline world consumers – whether in the business to business segment or in the direct to consumer or B2C space people are looking for the right expert.
As much as it may be difficult to put ourselves out there, to take a clear stand, to communicate our point of view. But we MUST do it.
Your audience is best served by YOU. Not someone else.
Building your brand as a thought leader is an important part of that process.
To discuss this idea, I’ve invited Samantha Riley on the show.
She’s a speaker, international business growth coach, best-selling author, host of the ‘Thought Leaders Business Lab’ podcast, co-founder of the Global Thought Leaders Network and has 25 years personal experience in building and growing businesses.
Today, she helps thought leaders and experts to scale their business so they have more income, more freedom, and more impact.
Listen in as she shares:
- What a thought leader is and is not
- 3 must haves to help you step into greatness
- The challenges faced by those of us who leave corporate life
- The problem of comparisonitis and how to deal with and overcome it
- A fun idea for making sure your statement of what you do is clear and simple
- 3 keys to being seen as a thought leader
- How thought leadership helps you get clients
And Samantha’s best tips for managing the 8 strategic actions we need to take to grow our expertise based business.
As always listen all the way to the end where I’ll share your action step and cocktail exercise for this episode.
