What if I told you that my guest Josh Elledge doesn\u2019t think that\u2019s a problem. While we know that Success requires Exposure, you can hack the press to have them actually market your products and business. \n\nJosh says \u201cyou can\u2019t just build a business from behind your keyboard and expect to be recognized. You need to make your publicity happen.\u201d\n\nRemember, when you get lots of great media attention and buzz, you become a media celebrity. Celebrities are much safer (for media outlets) to bring on as \u201cexperts\u201d which enables you to attract more attention, more traffic, and more sales for the products you represent. Get established and reap the rewards. \n\nJosh reminds us that \u201cthe more your audience sees you, the more they will trust and like you. You\u2019ll gain an incredible digital reputation. Investors will pay more attention. Customers will respect your authority in your industry. Your segments, stories, and content will get shared far and wide throughout the web \u2013 all doing its job to bring people back to you and your brand!\u201d\n\nYOUR Weekly Action Item: Find a local meetup in your field and introduce yourself to someone new within the next week. Tell them about your passions and see where YOU can help THEM...don\u2019t worry about how they can help you yet. We need to be able to network, speak intelligently and market ourselves.
