The Digital Leadership Manifesto

“There has never been a better time to own your future online with your business. The success of you and your business is ONLY about building your knowledge base, using the tools that you have, and being smart about what you do and how you do it.

Stop wasting time, money and resources on solutions that don’t provide a clear vision, a clear strategy, and more importantly, a key way to implement what you have learned.

Stop the self-perpetuation of the things that are wrong with the online world. Refuse to be segregated or preached to.

Become the Master of your Digital Domain. Now is the time to become the digital leader, the authority in your niche.”

What Exactly Is Social & Sharing?

Most marketers have a good grasp of the Extrinsic Motivators (price, features, benefits) of a product or a piece of content but we often struggle with the Intrinsic Motivators (how does the product align to a person’s feelings or goals) – the “value”.

People are thinking feelers not feeling thinkers.
