114 Putting Yourself Out There, with Janet Murray

I spend much more of my time marketing myself and getting my name and expertise known in the world than I actually do coaching or speaking to audiences. And this might come as a shock to you if you’re still working a 9-5 or starting to run your own venture.

Putting yourself out there doesn’t come naturally to most of us but it’s a vital part of being in business and, in some ways, it’s never been so complicated. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin not to mention blogging, podcasting and, email marketing... where do you start?

That’s why I wanted to talk to Janet Murray. Janet is a former journalist who specialises in helping people grow their audience so they can succeed in business. In her podcast, free content and courses she shows how to position yourself as the go to person and create a following of people who want to buy the thing you do.

In this interview we talk about:

• Transitioning out of your current job and how long that can take
• Pivoting until you find your niche
• Email marketing
• Creating a following and creating content as a way to position yourself as an expert
• Being able to finish the sentence “He/She is the person you go to if you want...”

You can find out more about Janet on her website where she has tonnes of free resources to download plus her brilliant podcast, The Janet Murray Show.
