If you’re a “thought leader” (i.e. you have a podcast, newsletter, books, TEDx talks, etc) or you wish to become one, then this conversation is a must-listen.
Mike Liguori breaks down under-utilized tools in storytelling, which you can apply to your marketing and business development efforts, as well as the unique ways in which you talk about your work with other people.
Regarding monetization strategies, specifically for podcasts, we discuss various ways to create sustainably, and Mike shares some of his experiences earned working with clients like Super Bowl Winner Steve Weatherford, who pivoted his brand from fitness and motivational-speaking to entrepreneurs to a more faith-based community with Mike’s help (which was both more authentic for Steve and ultimately more profitable).
