Latest / Expertise Made Real / The Art of Systematizing Expertise: Insights from the Podcast
Transcript
- 0:00Anxiety bubbled in my chest.
- 0:02I was working at a high end ghostwriting firm and I knew that the client I was working with wanted to support something real in their business.
- 0:09They wanted to point to an offer.
- 0:10But every time I put any kind of marketing into the book of my client, my managing editor kept taking it out.
- 0:18Hi, I'm Kristen N.
- 0:19Spencer.
- 0:20And by that point I had already worked as an offer creation specialist, a ghostwriter and a copywriter.
- 0:27I knew that a book shouldn't be a long sales letter because that feels creepy and gross, but that excited readers needed somewhere else useful to go after reading the book.
- 0:35So that's where an offer came in.
- 0:37A book should always be a support piece in an expert's toolkit, but it shouldn't be the whole business that's not sustainable.
- 0:44I knew that we could help readers get better at whatever they needed to get better at, while helping experts spend more time doing what they are brilliant at.
- 0:54And I could see the solution for experts.
- 0:57But I needed help from myself.
- 0:59As an expert, I knew my own name was little and unknown.
- 1:03I couldn't create the same big opportunity for myself that the firms could, which was why I was working there.
- 1:09I knew that my expertise needed to become known too.
- 1:13So I decided to take my own advice.
- 1:15Finally, I built my own book and connected it to a holistic business path.
- 1:20That's where this podcast comes in.
- 1:22Expertise Made Real is my way of doing this in practice with many experts, using the wonderworthy method to help them systematize what already works and turn expertise into authority.
- 1:34Assets that travel with them, that travel with you.
- 1:38You'll learn how to make expertise travel in this podcast.
- 1:42Maybe you're like me and you have been happy hiding behind big brand names.
- 1:46But I wasn't happy anymore.
- 1:47And I don't think you are either.
- 1:49What would it be like for you to build your own authority so that it was visible to me?
- 1:54That meant being vulnerable and trying things that might fail, but the payoff was worth it.
- 2:00I've been able to help experts publicly own their talent, and that has opened doors they hadn't imagined.
- 2:07And for my own career, this has opened doors that I couldn't have possibly imagined.
- 2:11Such as my book ending up on a Times Square billboard, which had been a lifelong dream and and something that could only come true through a relationship that I had helping another expert find his voice and repeatable system.
- 2:25Expertise shouldn't stay trapped inside the person who owns it.
