What is one of the fastest and easiest ways to establish yourself as an expert in your own business niche with the least amount of financial investment?

Many people believe that the way you establish yourself as an expert is to write a book.

However, unless you are already established or have a ghost writer and staff, writing a book takes A LOT of time, energy, effort and investment.

Creating a teleseminar pilot program is a different way to quickly establish credibility, as well as leverage your time and energy so that you can have a powerfully streamlined and efficient marketing channel system.

To start with doing something like this in your own business, it’s important to begin with exploring the values of creating and implementing a pilot program.

A pilot program is a complimentary, four to six week program that is created to serve the people who fit your ideal client profile and who are going to give you testimonials to use for supporting your program.

This program will become the foundation for your various marketing channels.

Pilot Programs can establish you quickly as an expert.  Publishing a book is not the only way to become an expert.  I was able to position myself as an expert based on the programs I have created.

It then becomes something like a reverse engineering process; the workbooks that you create for your programs can easily become mainstream books.

Creating programs is one of the easiest and quickest ways to create a product and generate revenue quickly.

For me, I quickly determined that teaching feels easy, and writing feels much more cumbersome.   One of my brilliances is that I reverse engineer things and that helps me leverage my time and manage my emotional energies.

Therefore, I determined that the easiest way for me to write books (or even blogs!) was to base them on the programs I have created.  That way I don’t have a long, drawn out process of writing material that I haven’t experienced yet.
