My guest today is someone who knows what she’s talking about when it comes to finding great ideas.
Dorie Clark is a phenomenal writer, speaker, and business professor—but she didn’t get there overnight. Starting out as a marketing consultant, she spent years writing book proposals and facing rejection. It wasn’t until her blog post “How to Reinvent Your Personal Brand” appeared in the Harvard Business Review that she knew she’d found something special—her breakthrough idea.
Dorie’s upcoming book, Stand Out [Amazon affiliate link], takes you through the process for uncovering your own breakthrough. She’s here today to share strategies you can use to find a big idea that’s unique to you, build a following around it, and create a closely-connected community of fans and supporters.
I can’t wait for you to hear the wisdom Dorie has brought with her today. Let’s do it!
