How To Prepare For A Public Relations Expert
Successful coaches and solopreneurs are used to bootstrapping their business. They (and you) are good at it.
Podcasting? They’re on it.
Blogging? They get it done.
Social media? It’s not just a distraction (most of the time, anyway).
If there’s marketing to be done in any form, solo business owners are well aware and are doing their best to get the word out. But there comes a point of diminishing returns.
Your website has all the traffic you feel you’re going to attract through organic (and even paid) methods. Your mailing list growth has slowed to a crawl. Perhaps your income has leveled off.
It might be time to bring in a pro to help you get some much needed local and national media attention. But before you do, be sure you have a good foundation in place, or all your time (and money) will be wasted.
Solid, Consistent Branding

Authentic Marketing Makes More Sense
Today more than ever, it’s easy to look the part, play a role, and even fake your status.
Acting larger than you are or only exposing the perfect and polished aspects of your business has no value and isn’t sustainable. Authentic marketing makes more sense.
Why?
People want to see the real you.
Authentic marketing is a chance to share your unique personality, and brand values - to stand for something, to inspire, to entertain.
Behind the scenes footage is often the most popular content. Sneak peeks into other people’s lives is not only interesting, but it also creates impressive engagement.
Take your tribe on the journey.
Your clients, customers, fans, and followers all care about you and your business. If they didn’t they would have moved on, unsubscribed, or switched to your competitor by now. There is something special and unique about your personality and offerings that attract people into your orbit.
Make sure you honor that by sharing your...

The Power Of Influence - Lead Or Be Led
Influence….it’s powerful.
For some reason, the topic of influence has been on my mind.
I wanted to dive deeper into thinking about how influencing others and being influenced, play a part in our lives and our business.
Let’s think about how we influence others.
As business owners, people are watching and listening to us (some more intently than others). We have a responsibility to a certain degree. How we conduct ourselves, our policies, our follow-through, and our style are all factors in our ability to influence clients. If we are a true authority or even perceived as one, our influence will, of course, be stronger.
We can increase our sphere of influence by spreading our message via blogging, newsletters, guest posts, social posts, speaking engagements, interviews, webinars, etc.
The more authoritative and consistent we are with our point of view, the greater the opportunity to have a significant influence on our...
