Informally, an expert is someone widely recognised as a&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Reliabilism\"><em>reliable<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;source of&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wiktionary.org\/wiki\/technique\"><em>technique<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Skill\"><em>skill<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;whose faculty for judging or deciding rightly, justly, or wisely is accorded authority and status by&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Peer_group\"><em>peers<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;or the&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/General_public\"><em>public<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;in a specific well-distinguished domain.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"a0f7\">So isn\u2019t It funny that so many of our audience who teach, advise or train in their field still find it hard to call themselves an expert as they don\u2019t feel they\u2019ve earnt the right to do so. Does that sound like you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"408a\">Well we are going to help you bust that limiting belief today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"f7c5\">But before we go into HOW, lets address WHY claiming an expert status is important for your positioning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Being an expert helps people file you away in their memory as the \u2018GO TO Person\u2019 for your niche. As soon as someone mentions those keywords they think of you.<\/li><li>It raises your brand awareness &amp; professionalism<\/li><li>It builds people\u2019s trust in you<\/li><li>It helps you stand out from the competition<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"1647\">What you need to do is \u2018qualify\u2019 yourself as an expert to show how you have earned the right to classify yourself as one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/miro.medium.com\/max\/500\/1*Atfgqcr7tUB5Fpn13eaaow.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"66d6\"><strong>So here are the 3 lenses that we want to view yourself through:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Qualifications &amp; accreditation<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"8ec9\">This isn\u2019t listing your high school qualifications but the industry relevant courses &amp; accreditation that you have taken to give you the theoretical &amp; practical professionalism to deliver your service. Maybe you\u2019ve combined a variety of studies which gives you a unique viewpoint (etc. you might be a qualified feng shui consultant &amp; an occupational physiotherapist and combing them you assess workplaces to increase performance)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"0e85\"><strong>2. Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"7ce0\">There isn\u2019t any new information in the world, but it\u2019s your experience and how you package it to help others that becomes unique &amp; attractive. For example, when talking to a friend who hired a sleep coach for his baby \u2014 the reason he chose her was because she specialised in babies with reflux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"fff5\"><strong>3. Research<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"eab0\">You might not have a great deal of qualifications or experience in your field, but you could become an expert by curating information from other experts or doing specialised research in a particular niche area &amp; gain expert status that way. This is exactly how Brene Brown became famous in the field of emotional intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"c68d\">So take stock of your past &amp; identify which of these 3 aspects of expert status do you currently hold? Qualifications, experience or research &amp; which one is your strongest area?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"c841\">Now the important step \u2014 make sure you include these points in your marketing &amp; your bio to highlight &amp; claim your expert status.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Claiming your expert positioning in your field is important to gain trust with your clients &amp; also help boost your confidence that you have earned the right to be classed as an expert!
