The Power Of Brand Authority

Focusing on brand authority is the most crucial thing you can do for your brand.
Even more important than building your audience.
Would you rather have 100,000 followers who:
Never share your post
Don't engage with your content
Won't spend a dime on your products
Or...
Have 1,000 loyal supporters who would argue with their granny about anything you've taught them?
These loyal supporters wouldn’t hesitate to invest in your course or join your webinar—because they believe that what you share will help them get from point A to point B quickly and efficiently.
That’s the power of brand authority. And it's why I focus on it over just growing an audience.
But what exactly is brand authority, and how do you build it in a crowded market?
Brand authority means being the trusted expert in your niche.
When you speak, people listen. When you recommend, they take action. They trust your guidance because you’ve earned it.
How do you build that level of trust and influence?
By consistently showing up and sharing:
Your results
Product results
Customer success stories
See a pattern?
Authority is built by offering valuable insights that solve your audience's problems.
When your advice leads to real results, they’ll come back for more.
It’s simple—but not easy.
Results = Credibility
Credibility = Trust
Trust = Authority
You can't hack your way to brand authority by following trends. It’s earned over time—through consistent value and results.
That’s why 1,000 loyal supporters hold far more value than 100,000 passive followers.
