How To Become The “Go To” Authority In Your Niche – PTC 521

Becoming an influential authority in your niche is possible through the power of podcasting when you have the right strategy.

AN INFLUENTIAL AUTHORITY

In this episode, I want to help you become that "go to", sought after and influential authority in your industry.

This is a presentation I did during the Podcast Profits Summit.

In this episode, we’ll discuss how authenticity, storytelling, and building relationships can transform your podcast into a powerful tool for influence and success.

I share examples from influential experts like Gary Vaynerchuk and Barbara Corcoran. You'll also get advice on attracting ideal clients, nurturing trust, and expanding your reach beyond your existing networks.

You'll get insights on how to grow both your audience and your business by focusing on authenticity and relationship-building. While many podcasters concentrate on the technical aspects of podcasting, it’s the personal stories and values — the "why" behind what you do — that truly build trust and rapport with your audience.

THE SALES PROCESS

The sales process has nuances that can turn listeners into loyal clients. 40% of the process is about building rapport, 30% involves qualifying leads, 20% is dedicated to educating on solutions, and the final 10% is about closing the deal.

This breakdown highlights the importance of establishing a solid relationship foundation before moving on to sales pitches. Your podcast can do exactly that.

Lead with your own experiences and personality, like other influencers. Great examples include Gary Vaynerchuk, Russell Brunson, and Brendon Burchard. Build a genuine connection with your audience.

Many of my clients have effectively transformed their podcasts into powerful business tools. TaVona Denise is a nurse turned coach. She launched a successful podcast that helped promote her summit.

Scott and Holly Stoner worked with me with their Wellness Compass podcast. We crafted content and a process that brought people to their foundation.

These examples illustrate how effective podcasting can lead to substantial business growth, not just through attracting listeners but by fostering a community built on trust and authenticity.

AUTHORITY THROUGH AUTHENTICITY

Finally, we get into the importance of storytelling and focusing on the 'why' rather than the 'how' in podcasting.

By consistently sharing your origin story and values, you transform your podcast into a platform that people bond with and return to for your unique personality and perspective.

This episode is a treasure trove of actionable insights for anyone looking to not just start a podcast but to become an influential authority in their niche.
