To have a big impact in your industry, you need to position yourself so that your audience knows who you are, the area of your expertise, and what you have to offer. It’s imperative to build your credibility and set yourself apart from other experts in your field. 

As entrepreneurs, we all have competitors in our space that we’re trying to outmaneuver. So to stand out, you have to find ways to get your target audience to see and choose you over the others. And you do this by authority positioning. Through authority positioning, you present yourself as the expert in your field—and the only one for the job.
