The Art of Selling Knowledge
We
all have a story to tell about something that we are good at and the good news
is that nowadays, there plenty of places to tell it. How many times have you
reached for your phone to google a question and you are presented with reams of
text and video of advice? People have realised that there is money to be made
from selling their knowledge and for a lot of savvy individuals, they are
making a lot of money.
Yes,
selling knowledge can become quite lucrative but like many other successful
business techniques, it can be an art and there a few things you need to
consider to make it work.
What are you selling?
The
first thing we think of when we are approached by a salesperson is, “What are
you selling?” In an instant, in weigh this person up and the opening pitch
becomes crucial. The same can be said about our online presence. We need to
create a good first impression, be approachable and trustworthy and be clear on
what it is we want to communicate.
Who are you trying to sell to?
What
audience are you trying to share and sell your knowledge to? There is no point
being an “expert” in something if you are telling the completely wrong group of
people. If you can identify your audience, you can use some digital marketing
techniques to virtually approach them, or at least get yourself in front of
them to make that pitch.
Hone your craft
If
you are passionate about the type of knowledge you want to share and sell, ask
yourself if you are polished enough or if you have as much knowledge as you
think you do. If you do, well then great but even the greatest performers or
intelligent minds never stopped practicing and learning. Hone your craft and
become as good as you can, every day.
Stay active
If
you have created an online presence, stay active. Don’t just post once a month,
you need to keep your audience up to date regularly if you want to build trust
and loyalty. This will build your following and change procrastinators into
purchasers.
