At one point or another, most of us have experienced that feeling of wanting to be “discovered” for our area of expertise. We secretly hope that someday, someone is going to recognize our brilliance and tell the world about it.

I have felt that way too, but finally realized that no one was coming to my door. If I wanted to be the go-to expert in my area, I’d have to assume the throne and crown myself.

And so I did, eventually adopting the expert title, the Queen of Sales Conversion.

Assuming the throne is not about ego. It’s about owning your gifts, that unique blessing that is yours. It’s about stepping up, declaring yourself the expert in your field…and so it is.

One of my favorite ways to assume the throne is to be the one who interviews others in your field. This instantly increases your authority, because others suddenly see you as a leader in your area of expertise.

In our industry interviewing others by phone or webinar is known as a telesummit.

During a telesummit, you, as the host, invite and interview amazing experts and speakers on a specific topic that you choose, while a virtual audience tunes in.
