This is the fourth part of the You are An Expert, Own Your Domain series. In this part, we will talk about the role of a product and a service that you offer in establish yourself as an expert. So, far in the series, we have talked about the self belief, power of networking, and skills required to establish yourself as an expert in your niche.
Experts often share their knowledge through their trademarked coaching program and consulting services. Prepare a one-on-one or one-to-many (a group program), and invite participants by offering an hour or two of free sessions. This will help your prospective customers sample your product, and if they like it, they will see you as an expert in your niche.
If you want to establish yourself as an expert in your field then you should create information products like e-books, booklets, teleseminars, audio books, videos, etc, and give a portion of it free. This will help user sample your work, and if the information product you are offering is of any value, you will not only register sale but will also be seen as expert in your domain.
Give free or paid classes in your community colleges, adult learning center, or on the Internet. You can also organize a free workshop at your place and invite people over for participation.
Speak for free, if you have to, but do that. Experts are known for giving speeches and addressing a congregation of people in their niche. Look for speaking opportunity in your local community, and render your service for free.
A book is the ultimate testimony of your expertise. Write a book, and find a publisher to get it published. A published book will tremendously help you in establishing your domain.
