No, everyone is NOT an expert (that’s good news for you and me!). Listen to this episode to learn how YOU can become one, at just about anything.

Seth Godin ruined the Internet. Of course, I say that in the most sarcastic way – and in jest – because I’m one of Seth’s biggest fans. I’ve bought and read every single one of his books.

Welcome to episode #41 of the SubscribeMe show from SubscribeMe.fm.

I’m your host Ravi Jayagopal. SubscribeMe.fm is the podcast to listen to, to learn about creating membership sites & online courses, making, marketing and monetizing digital content, WordPress, eCommerce, digital marketing, and tools, techniques and tips that you can use to create a long term, profitable online business.

I am the co-founder & co-developer of DigitalAccessPass.com, arguably the best membership plugin in the industry, fondly known as DAP.

I’m going to be giving away a free copy of my Kindle book, currently selling on Amazon for $4.99. And you can get it for free, and I’ll tell you how at the end of this episode. So be sure to listen to the episode via the player above.

 

No, everyone is NOT an expert at something (that’s good news for you and me!).

Seth Godin ruined the Internet. Of course, I say that in the most sarcastic way, because I’m one of Seth’s biggest fans. I’ve bought and read every single one of his books – and most of the ones I bought were real paperback books, not just some Kindle download. And he wrote a book called “Everyone’s An Expert” – and he released it as a PDF. If you go to the show notes for this episode – at subscribeme.fm/41/ , you’ll be able to download the PDF there.

I always say this in a sarcastic way – “Yeah, right, everyone’s an expert”. We know that most people trying to make a buck online certainly seem to think that they’re an expert. That’s exactly why every other person on Facebook claims to be an expert about membership sites, or a lifecoach, a business coach, or a funnel expert. Anyway, that was my “glass half full” sarcastic twin. You know, I’m a Gemini.

Now let me bring out the “Glass is half full”, optimistic, inspiring twin. So here’s how to be an expert — and more importantly, Position Yourself as an Expert in other people’s eyes, in my eyes: It’s very simple… Ready for the million-dollar one-liner? Here it is…
