I think too many people go for that second option "I'm going to be on every social media platform, and I'm going to do this and I'm going to do that". Start simple. Start with your strengths" -- Anne Janzer on The Recognized Authority "The best marketing for a good book is the book itself. If you've written a good book, mailing a copy of it to someone who is in a position to recommend it to others makes a heck of a lot of sense. You could spend thousands on a book publicist, or 100 bucks on a carton of books and four bucks a pop to mail it to people with a personal note" -- Anne Janzer on The Recognized Authority "Here's my philosophy: find ways to be generous and strategic. Find that balance. Always be generous, but be generous with a dose of strategy. If you're generous without strategy, you're just going to burn yourself out. If you're strategic and never generous, nobody's gonna want to talk to you" -- Anne Janzer on The Recognized Authority 👑 The Recognized Authority: the podcast that helps experts & consultants on the journey to becoming a recognized authority in your field, so you can increase your impact, command higher fees, and work with better clients. 📲 | SUBSCRIBE on YouTube: https://rec.nz/ytsubscribe 🚨 - FOLLOW Alastair and The Recognized Authority ON SOCIAL MEDIA... 👇 👑 - LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alastairmcdermott/ 👑 - TWITTER: https://twitter.com/WhatStrategy 👑 - FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/forconsultants/ 👑 - INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/WhatStrategy/ 💻 - WEBSITE: https://therecognizedauthority.com
