Leverage Other People's Platforms
One major aspect of becoming an expert is by leveraging other people’s platforms. Nkiru says that becoming an expert doesn’t happen overnight. By leveraging other people’s platforms and making strategic business relationships, you can showcase the best tips and tricks to others, grow your audience, and build a connection with them. These fabulous relationships can include being interviewed on podcasts, becoming referral partners, creating joint ventures, creating multiple digital products. These types of magical relationships can help you grow, even if you don’t have a large following.Â
Define Your Ideal Client & Market
 Are you solving a pain point? Are you trying to solve everyone’s problems or do you have a targeted solution for a specific client or audience? By establishing your authority and becoming more visible is to share with people your unique message to support your clients and customers. Your message will be helping your clients and customers to really dig deep into the solution that you offer. Â

Create A Nurturing Campaign
Are you looking to find out the best way to launch to your course to sales instead of crickets? Take a listen to Nkiru who says that usually you can give away more than you actually think! When you share free resources with your audience that are strategically created with the intention of showcasing your program – you’ll find that people will be much more interested in your offers – rather than second guessing. Nkiru’s clients often triple their fees for their services because of the fact that they can overcome common objections simply by becoming an expert in their niche. Call it lead generation or nurturing, you need to create a connection with your audience to promote it to the world.Â
Find Your Authentic Marketing Method
A common mistake that Nkiru says that others fall into is by trying to copy what others are doing instead of finding a system that works for them. Asika says that her content marketing takes people along a journey and sometimes not every “template” or script will work for each individual. Some may prefer email marketing, others might prefer videos. What it comes down to is being consistent with your social media and marketing presence.Â
