5 Steps To Become An Expert In Your Field!
by Jim Stigman
Find Your Niche
You can’t become an expert by spreading yourself too thin. Find a niche and become a go-to person for that task. You’ll stand out and your authority will skyrocket.
EducateStart to visualize yourself as an educator, not just an entrepreneur. This will not only help to inform those you communicate with, it will help you continue to learn. Studies show that you learn more teaching others than you do reading, listening to, or watching others. So, get out there and teach!
Brand BuildingThink of yourself as a brand. If you have lots of publications and marketing to back up your expertise, people will be more likely to take you seriously. At the very least, you should be cognizant of your online reputation on the web. But take that further and try to market yourself, write articles, and be your own biggest supporter.
Write, Write, Write
Whether its articles, a book, or any other type of publication, take the power of the written word seriously. When people see your name in print, they immediately attribute a higher level of authority to you. Ensure that anything you write is well-researched, interesting, and unique to get the best results possible.
Get HeardTry to build on your hard work by securing interviews, speeches, or appearances in other types of media. Even if its just a podcast or small website feature, your appearance will begin to spread your image as an authority and expert in your field.
