AUTHORITY ROADMAP
Become the Go-To Authority
Personal brand positioning, messaging, and PR mini roadmap for industry experts ready to be seen, heard (and hired) as the go-to in their space
"I'm not sure how to describe myself in order to differentiate myself"
How many times have you struggled to clearly articulate who you are and confidently express it without stumbling over your words?
Maybe weeks, months, or even years? And it's keeping you hidden and held back in a hamster wheel of overwhelm and obscurity.
Does This Sound Familiar?
You have a hard time standing out in a noisy and crowded field or workplace
You struggle to define yourself in your industry or attract the right clients
Your online presence is non-existent or doesn't convey you as the credible authority you are
You have too many ideas and need to narrow down your focus or niche
Your brand message is confusing and hardly differentiated
You’re someone who needs a real process, personalized support and expert guidance to succeed
What's Holding You Back From Climbing Higher?
Are you a solo expert or entrepreneur ready to put yourself out there and launch your personal brand?
But find yourself stalled and frustrated not moving forward on your own. Unable to articulate your ideas, communicate your value, and stay on track with countless ideas and shiny objects keeping you unfocused?
Why Is This So Hard to Do On Your Own?
You've tried going at it alone. Or you've bought courses, invested in programs and spent hours on Google trying to figure it out.
And you're still not out there...
It's not your fault....it happens to the best of us. That's because we're too close to our own brands. The "curse of knowledge" makes it hard to figure ourselves out, translate our ideas and convey our message and offers in a way that makes sense to others.

"I'M NOW CLEAR AND CONFIDENT IN MY MESSAGING AND MY BUSINESS IS THRIVING."
" Michelle was instrumental in helping me create a clear and concise message. I had so much information ~ written and in my mind ~ yet could not find a way to clearly articulate, package and present my message in a simple way that resonated with others.
SHERMALYN SIDONIE-JOHNS

"MY VISIBILITY GREW EXPONENTIALLY WITH MY IDEAL CLIENT EVEN BEFORE OUR SESSIONS WERE OVER."
"When I started working with Michelle, I was experiencing information overload. As a marketer, I really needed someone to get my ideas out of my head and create content that was thought-provoking and built deep connections with my audience.
I needed to position myself as an authority and grow my visibility to attract the right opportunities, network, collaborations, and the right clients. Michelle helped me zero in on my thought leadership message and own my thought leadership word "Careerpreneur Brand." My TEDx talk was a success and got positive responses from my global community."
