Have you ever wanted to be known as an industry expert? In this article I would like to share with you what it takes to become that expert in your industry.

You are asking: €Why I would want to be known as an expert?€ It helps you attract more clients, customers and prospects. If you are providing a service, it substantiates why you can charge more for your services. When you become an expert, start spreading the word about that expertise.

Tips to get you started on becoming an industry expert

One of the first things you will need to do is start building your reputation as an expert. You may be thinking, €Well that's easy, I AM an expert. No one knows more about my industry than I do.€ You are more than half way there if you truly believe that.

Here are three tips for getting out there and letting everyone know you are the industry expert.

Call yourself an industry expert

From early childhood we were to taught €Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.€ Accordingly, we are reluctant to blow our own horn. We fear that others will perceive us as bragging. I truly believe that this is wrong! You should feel confident enough to tell people that you're an expert. Always be looking for opportunities to contribute to conversations€"whether through social media or industry groups.

As an Industry Expert - Share Generously

As an industry expert you have interesting industry news to share. Blog about it, send out emails to industry influencers about it, maybe even put together a press release. Many business owners question whether they should share their knowledge. However, if you want to build your brand sharing knowledge is what is all about.

Stay Focused

Staying focused can be very difficult. As you become that all important industry expert, a whole new world of possibility opens up. But beware of the worry that the title doesn't mean anything anymore. You need to be really clear on your skill set and what you want to be known as. For example, telling you I'm a Network Marketing accounting and income tax expert doesn't really tell you much about me. However, telling you that I'm an expert in helping Network Marketing businesses save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars and develop more profitable businesses through continual communication and mentoring - should give you a much clearer picture of my area of focus.

It is a never ending process to continually make you known to industry influencers. You need to stay focused and understand it takes time. There are no short cuts in making yourself visible to the masses.
