004: Authenticity Is The New Authority

Members of our audience will only become our customer when they know, like, and trust us.

We can say we know what we are talking about. We can even share our credentials. In reality our audience are unlikely to become customers until they feel like they know us.

That doesn’t mean sharing every intimate detail of your life, but it does mean that you have to present your authentic self.

As media commentator Adam Ragusea states, “Authenticity is the new authority.”

That is Fundamental #4: Authenticity is the new authority.

In this week’s podcast I talk about how you can draw your audience closer by being yourself in a healthy way.

001: I Am Not Building A Business (I’m Building A Lifestyle)

Entrepreneurs have a reputation for being daring risk takers.

Instead of working for someone else they choose to set out alone, creating their own path, ploughing their own furrow.

And to some extent, it is true. It is riskier to be on your own, but I think some small business owners use this as an excuse to be reckless.
