Your Wisdom Could Be Worth a Million!

Most people on the planet have a passion for a subject they know a great deal about - technology, the future, safety and security, mortgages, fibromyalgia, brain cancer, Greek cuisine, starting a business in China, fly fishing, manatees, vinegar, bubbles, handgun legislation, beading, personal finance, etc. - and they may not realize that others will pay to obtain their knowledge. But it's true. Your advice, wisdom, opinion, knowledge and experience are valuable to others. You don't have to have degrees, only be smart, organized, fearless and articulate (sofa).

My passion for the past 30 years (since 1977) has been to position, package and promote people just like you. I want to see people find you, contact you, hire you, order from you, pay you, utilize and implement your advice, refer and recommend you, rave about you, and return to you again and again for more of your specialized wisdom.

My 12 Contrarian Principles for Building Your One-Person Knowledge or Advice Empire

1. Do the one thing you absolutely love and charge for it.
2. Ignore the dream-killers around you.
3. Promote your own name rather than a company name.
4. Position yourself as the leader in your niche, not a follower or an also-ran.
5. Narrow your niche even more or create a new niche if necessary.
6. Multiply yourself by offering your specialized knowledge in a variety of formats.
7. Attract people to you, rather than "knocking on doors" to get clients.
8. Avoid obvious paid advertising.
9. Avoid working for free.
10. Get paid to promote yourself.
11. Do fun things that just happen to be newsworthy.
12. Be a memorable person: a contrarian, a maverick, a pioneer, a rebel.
