One of the great benefits of having a blog or podcast platform is that you get to connect with people who you would have never had a reason to connect with.
Imagine having someone who told you they were moved by something you said to the point of crying.
On #Audacity2Lead today, Joe Pardo from Dreamers Podcast shares his story of how he started blogging and podcasting, and then met people who have been influenced by the things he was sharing on his blog and podcast.
If you are a leader, coach, consultant, speaker, a far better way to position yourself as a person of influence is to have a blog or podcast platform. Having the two is advantageous though.
Joe Pardo who has recently become a friend of mine – and I recommend listening to his podcast – shares some tips to how you can get started with blogging and podcasting.
