Episode notes

Do you have an authority business? Have you focused on your expertise to become an authority in your business niche? If you're not sure, this episode is for you. Rochelle Moulton is an expert at building authority brands. She's built and sold 6,7, and 8-figure consulting businesses. She started out consulting at global powerhouses like Towers Perrin and Arthur Andersen. Now she focuses on turning consultants and big thinkers into authorities. She is also the author of The Authority Code: How to Position, Monetize and Sell Your Expertise.

This guide is all about teaching freelancers and consultants how to position themselves as authorities. It presents a way to monetize expertise and sell authority to ideal clients and buyers. Rochelle explains all of the advantages of becoming an authority and breaks down the steps for us. We talk about the importance of leveraging your expertise by speaking or writing in some form. Once we decide to leverage our expertise, we are on the road to authority.

Rochelle realized early on that speaking became easy when she focused on transforming her audience. We also talk about creating a vision for who you want to serve and the life you want to have, finding the revolution you want to lead, defining your ideal client, and discovering your niche. We also discuss the importance of finding your origin story and connecting the dots between your perfect client and your niche. Find out why it's crucial to publish like it's a revenue stream, how to enlist your authority circle, and master the art of persuasion.
