So you’ve honed in on your market space and positioning and now you’re ready for more – for bigger and better. But how? How do you broaden out to new potential clients and share your expertise with the world?
You need to be become an authority figure – a known expert in your niche or category. It’s called an Authority Platform and it’s going to get you the publicity and media exposure you need to scale your business.
Don’t believe the self-doubt that says you’re not an expert yet and therefore not an authority – and don’t wait until your retired to write your manifesto. It has to be a part of your media strategy now. Start building your authority on the way up.
So, here’s my advice: Find your unique message and then amplify it as widely and loudly as possible. Write the book now. Get active on LinkedIn and Social Media. Start posting videos on YouTube and TikTok. Stop neglecting your media strategy. If you aren’t telling your story now, you are losing out on potential growth.
Ignore the voices that say to put yourself out there is greedy or vain. It’s not about money or attention. It’s about impact. How many people can you serve? How many lives can you make better? Because as entrepreneurs we’re here to solve problems. This is what helps you get the win.
