CONSULTING SUCCESS
About this episode

As a consultant, it can be very challenging to stand out in a world overloaded with content. Right now, people have the power to just Google you up and decide whether or not they want to work with you. So instead of trying to communicate with everyone, focus on your strengths. Share your story and be transparent because people want to work with people they can relate to. 

 

Join Michael Zipursky as he talks to the author of The Iconist: The Art and Science of Standing OutJamie Mustard, about standing out in today's world. Learn more about Jamie’s book and why he decided to share his story with the world. Discover more about Blocks and how you can have people remember you. Start sharing your story today and build that credibility.
