Have you struggled to figure out what to say, whether it’s on a social media post or in a presentation?
Have you stopped yourself from sharing something because you weren’t sure what the reaction would be?
Do you feel like there’s something deeper, more meaningful, more impactful you want to say, but you haven’t quite been able to tease it out?
Do you feel stuck in your business and marketing and haven’t been able to break through the online noise?
As business owners, we’re used to being marketers: crafting a message that appeals to a customer market to help them where they’re at and where they see *they* want to go.
Being a thought leader is different: it requires you to push your audience (and yourself) to go somewhere new.
This can feel scary and it’s normal to have fears come up: fear of criticism, rejection, ostracism (we’re human, after all).
But, the rewards are well worth it!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The differences between being a business owner, a marketer, and a thought leader
- Why it’s hard to speak up and say what we want to say – and techniques to change this
- 5 questions to ask yourself to find your voice
- 3 things you can do now to start putting it into practice
- Examples to inspire you
This episode is the audio from the recent webinar we did.
