Michael DeLon: Creating Your Credibility

Episode Summary

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Michael DeLon discuss: Looking for fit, not just for business. Using books to grow your business. Credibility, authority, and thought leadership. Discovering your story. Key Takeaways: Having a book makes you an expert on that topic. It gives instant credibility. Working with a company like Paperback Expert allows you to speak to write your book, not physically write it yourself. In our culture, it is near sacrilegious to throw away books. Giving a physical book is more likely to be kept (or shared further down the line) than something like a business card or ebook. Tell the story that only you can tell. People remember stories. People connect through stories. "It's your story. People are going to choose you; they're going to buy you more than what you can do for them. How or why are they going to choose you? You want people who connect with you." —  Michael DeLon Connect with Michael DeLon:  Website: https://paperbackexpert.com/ Show: https://paperbackexpert.com/interviews/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaeldelon/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/MichaelDeLon Credibility Calculator: https://thecredibilitycalculator.com/ Thank you to our Sponsors!
