15 Ways to Position Yourself as an Expert in Your Field

Posted March 30th, 2008 by Susan Gunelius in Career Development, Women On Business

Nancy S. Juetten is a publicist who speaks and teaches business owners about generating their own publicity for free. She also writes the Main Street Media Savvy blog, and this week she published a post that sums up some of the information she shared during a recent speaking engagement at the Women in Business Forum at Meydenbauer Center called 15 Ways to Earn a Reputation as an Expert in Your Field.

Nancy provides some great tips for positioning yourself as an expert. What I like most about her list is that every suggestion on it is something you can implement immediately. From starting a blog or website to writing a killer bio, there is nothing on the list that you can’t start doing today to establish yourself as an expert. It’s all about building a platform and a brand identity. Take the steps in Nancy’s list and you’ll be on your way!

Remember, don’t wait for someone else to promote you, instead, promote yourself and others will follow.

Hi Susan,

I appreciate you inviting your blog readers to visit my blog. Thank you.

I work with some amazing local business women who are making a big splash on the local and national landscape. Among them are Jean Thompson, CEO of Seattle Chocolate Company, Alice Cunningham of Olympic Hot Tub Company, and Kristen Marie Schuerlein of Affirmagy. I’d be thrilled if you would consider interviewing them for a possible businesswoman profile. You can visit their online press rooms at each of these sites to see why they are so remarkable: www.seattlechocolates.com, www.olympichottub.com, and www.affirmagy.com.

I’d be honored to earn your consideration on behalf of these fine business women who are blazing amazing trails in the world of business and setting examples others would be proud to follow. Look forward to connecting with you soon!
