    Michelle,

    I’m very definitely working to position myself as an authority.
    I love your llist of 7, especially #5. Not only am I more comfortable with teaching, but folks want to learn, but not be sold to.

      I can’t take credit – it’s Adam Urbanski’s list – but I agree, love it!

      Same here, Flora. I’d so much rather teach and build my business that way so this model is perfect.

    Great post, Michelle. Too many think that bluster equals authority. This sets it straight.

      True. I think many confuse the meaning of authority–and how to demonstrate it.
