In the "Business Growth Architect Show" Podcast, Ken Lizotte and I discuss effective PR strategies, including idea generation, pitch organization, and the five pillars of thought leadership.   One key idea we discussed was following your passion and focusing on what you genuinely care about when generating your speaking, article, or book topics for maximum exposure. Find out about the importance of authenticity and personal interest when selecting your topics. Diverse, audience-resonating topics can arise from different facets of your own expertise. Think about it this way. By breaking down the components of your expertise and not overthinking it, a diverse range of relevant topics can typically easily emerge.    Another concept you want to know about is how to organize pitches and hooks to drive effective business development. When you understand the importance of structuring and fleshing out ideas it will help your audience to understand and engage with your message. By identifying the specific business you're in and aligning your topics with your goals, you can leverage business development as a powerful tool for success.   During the episode, you will learn what the five pillars of thought leadership are and why consistently publishing ideas and sharing your expertise through articles, books, or presentations is the key to building your authority. Ken drove home how speaking engagements are the single most important pillar, enabling thought leaders to connect with their audience and effectively impart knowledge. Lastly, we discussed the final pillar of thought leadership that will help you to become a thought leader and stand out and provide innovative solutions to your clients. Overall, you want to listen to this episode if you do not get engagement on what you are posting or sharing so that you can learn the secrets to generating topics, organizing pitches, and understanding the pillars of thought leadership. Most importantly the only rule is to follow your passion, effectively structuring ideas, and leveraging the key platforms, you can establish yourself as a recognized thought leader and transform your business development, recognition and relationships.   Resources Mentioned: Ken Lizotte: Website | Twitter | Facebook | LinkedIn

Ken Lizotte, Author and Chief Imaginative Officer, emerson consulting, inc. Many business owners believe they should maximize their profits by keeping their expenses as low as possible. In this episode, Ken Lizotte and Kathleen explore when, how, and why to invest in yourself and in your business and how that leads to sustainable profitability. As you find out, spending money to develop skills or expand your business can actually set you apart from the competition. It is what both these successful thought leaders have done, so listen in and find out how to bust this myth wide open. Key Take Aways: Anticipate expenses. As Ken says, when you do your annual budget, set aside some resources for marketing and personal growth courses or coaching. Trust your gut. Not all investments, coaches or training programs are for all people. Do your research, and then trust your instincts. Learn from your mistakes. Part of being a business owner is taking risks and sometimes failing. When you realize that you have made a poor investment of your time or money, change course. It can be difficult to realize you have made a mistake, but the sooner you do and the quicker you change course, the better off you and your business will be.
