How to make brains stop and pay attention to your personal brand with Lauren Clemett

How to Know When to End a Part of Your Business

Are you a thought leader? Do you think you should be? Do you have to be a thought leader in business these days? If you want to be one, is it as simple as just calling yourself one? What’s the difference between calling your self one, and being one? I had so many questions!

Verity Craft is a speaker, coach, writer and self-described thought leadership nerd (with her love of thought leadership possibly matched only by her obsession with musical theatre). Together with Christina Wedgwood, she's built Intelligent Ink into the go-to for thought leadership here in Aotearoa New Zealand (they like to say they were doing thought leadership before it was cool – who would have thought at school that they'd be trendsetters?)

 They've worked with hundreds of big thinking, purpose-driven experts to maximize their impact, build their reputations, and grow their businesses as thought leaders and authors.

Verity joins me on MAP IT Marketing this week to explain why it’s ok to not love the term and STILL act like one, how to use different thinking skills to stand out from everyone else and why sharing your thoughts might not be the ticket to getting new clients. (It’s not all you need.)

This podcast is FILLED with great nuggets and information - quite frankly I didn’t want the interview to end!

In this episode we cover:
Why you can have an issue with the name “thought leader” and still be one
What makes a thought leader
What isn’t enough to do as a thought leader
How you can build a brand as one
Whether thought leadership is just for those wanting to build a large audience
Why thought leadership content is different from marketing content.

What Is a Thought Leader? And Should You Be One? - With Verity Craft

One of the best parts of being a content marketing veteran (aka, in my 50’s and having been involved in content marketing in one way or the other for over twenty years) is seeing patterns show up in how technology impacts our content and our marketing.

The ebb and flow of “too much info” has been one that we’ve struggled with as humans since the internet became an integral part of our lives. 20 years ago I was writing keyword stuffed four-hundred word blogs for companies that had no consideration for the reader and were all about getting google to notice us. 

It worked for a bit. But then our human need for good content that actually informed us took over and the algorithms adjusted for us. 

AI is creating a flood. People who've been paralysed in content creation or even content creators who just want to pour out as much as possible now have technology to help it. There’s AI everywhere.

And yes. I’m using it.

But I’m also excited about the opportunities other business owners are creating for  me - because the more others create AI generic work, the more my “thinks” - what I call my own ideas, will stand out and be noticed.

They’ll have a different cadence, they’ll feel very human (and possibly even a bit flawed) and my people will find them



In this episode we go over why content marketing is even more of an opportunity for your small business than ever before, why you need to be creating “Confident content” and what I’m doing to help you do just that

In this episode we cover:
Why AI is a gift for us (and not for reasons you think)
What’s going to happen when we reach peak flood and why we need to ride the wave
How to connect better with your content 
What I’m doing to stand out in a sea of “sameness”
Why being brave, and being confident about your own voice matters now, more than ever.
