    Ep163: Clarity and Credibility with Mitchell Levy

    &nbsp


    Today on the Book More Show, I dive into the art of messaging with Global Credibility Expert Mitchell Levy.


    Mitchell and I were introduced earlier this year, and in talking to him, I really connected his work with our approach to helping business owners start conversations with clients and customers.


    In the show, we dissect the struggles professionals face in articulating their value and unique position in the marketplace and the power clarity and credibility have in personal and business branding. A challenge that could become harder in an AI-powered world, but where an abundance mindset means AI becomes a huge advantage in leveraging leadership.


    We discuss the strategic use of books as credibility tools and the importance of an authentic presence, and I share my journey of dialing in the message and determining who we can best help.


    Finally, we highlight Mitchell's upcoming, free CoachingFest event, which will bring together 14 leading speakers to help professionals grow their influence and define their message.


    Though it's called CoachingFest, this event is relevant to everyone listening, not just coaches, as we're all here to refine our message and get more clients. It's well worth checking out the link above.


    &nbsp


    SHOW HIGHLIGHTS




    Mitchell shares his insights on the importance of clarity and credibility in personal and business branding, noting that 98% of professionals struggle to articulate their value proposition succinctly.
    We focus on the shift from a scarcity to an abundance mindset, discussing how AI is democratizing thought leadership and the importance of experience and capability in this new landscape.
    The concept of Customer Point of Possibilities (CPOP) is introduced, which helps articulate one's core message succinctly, highlighting the discovery that clarity precedes credibility.
    My personal journey toward identifying my core customer pain point (CPOP) led to narrowing my target audience, which I discuss in relation to executive coaching and business development.
    We explore the synergy between different coaching services and partnerships, reflecting on the psychological barriers to specializing and the success that comes with a narrowed focus.
    The necessity of articulating a clear message or CPOP within eight to ten words is emphasized, especially for authors and marketers looking to engage their target audience effectively.
    I introduce the concept of a micro-commitment—a low-risk offer to captivate potential clients—and propose clarity sessions as a strategic starting point before engaging in book creation or marketing efforts.
    We guide listeners through the process of becoming a community superhero, leveraging books as conversation starters and knowing one's CPOP to attract the right audience and establish credibility.
    The upcoming Coaching Fest is highlighted as a valuable opportunity for growth and learning from leading industry voices, aimed at helping listeners enjoy playing in their community's playground every day.
    The strategic timing for book opportunities is explored, stressing the importance of clarity in messaging before writing a book or enhancing one's online presence to enhance credibility and leverage knowledge.

    Ep160: Making Emotional Connections with Grant Gooding

    &nbsp


    Today on the Book More Show, I'm talking with Grant Gooding of Proof Positioning about the secrets of market research for small businesses.


    Starting his career in mergers and acquisitions, Grant was a customer of market research provided by some large organizations. Realizing they were great at providing data but not insights into what the data practically meant, Grant started Proof to bridge that gap and provide actionable market-driven intelligence.


    We focused our conversation on how market research can help small and medium-sized companies determine what questions matter when growing their business.


    Having personally had preconceived ideas that market research was only an option for big companies with significant budgets, it was revealing to see just how accessible it is and how Proof's methodology marries with our approach to creating books.


    Both aim to answer potential clients' most pressing questions and start a conversation.


    There are a lot of valuable ideas here as you look to use a book to build your business.

    The conversation addresses the misconceptions surrounding market research and the value of an abductive approach over traditional inductive methods.
    Grant emphasizes the significance of emotionally charged messaging in influencing consumer choices and driving customer behavior.
    We explore the concept that emotional influence often outweighs logical reasoning in decision-making processes.
    The episode discusses how simplifying communication and resonating with customers on an emotional level can transform business strategies.
    Stuart talks about the counterintuitive discovery that clients using multiple solution providers can indicate the value of a business's niche expertise.
    We reflect on a real-life lesson from a business that failed after ignoring expert advice, stressing the importance of informed analysis and listening to research.
    The episode concludes with an invitation for audience engagement and a look at the resources provided for businesses to maximize their market research efforts.
