How entrepreneurs and authors can amplify their voices by studying their heroes
This month, I asked Reema, on ways that entrepreneurs, authors, writers and other professionals can build their brands.
Reema, offered several strategies, and explained how they worked for her as a writer. However, I believe these strategies are transferable to any professional who wants to pivot up in their field. Reema says,"as we know from writing, magic doesn't occur accidentally. So, invest in the time to prepare the skills you'll need. Here are things I did, and hopefully they can help others."While the manuscript for I Am Yours was on submission, I began watching TEDTalks and interviews with powerhouse authors and speakers whom I admire religiously. I average two interviews/talks a day.
