The Authority Show

If you are a coach, consultant or course creator then chances are you are driven by the desire to help as many people as you can, and leave a lasting impact. You have experience that needs to be shared. Knowledge that needs to be taught. A message that needs to be heard. Plus, a business that needs to be scaled.

But in the age when anyone with an opinion can shout about it on the internet, why is it that some coaches are able to cut through the noise and position themselves as true influencers with something meaningful to share?

What is it that they are doing that you haven’t figured out yet?

The answer, of course, is writing their book. Because writing a book is the most powerful way to position yourself as a thought leader and the go-to expert in your niche. Because when you do that, you are going to be able to 10x your influence, your impact and your income.

I’m Jessica Killingley and I’m a book mentor, coach and literary agent. I work with ambitious entrepreneurs who help other people to do extraordinary things. I’m going to be sharing my experience from over two decades in publishing and everything I know about selling books, creating bestsellers, personal development, coaching and business, so that you can get a brilliant book out into the world that’s going to turn delighted readers into devoted clients.
