SOUND FAMILIAR?
The doubts that keep good consultants invisible.
Every chapter opens with a thought I've heard from hundreds of talented professionals, and I've said most of them myself. Then we take it apart.
“
I'm not ready yet. I need to learn more before I put myself out there.
02
Master the Fundamentals
“
Everything I know has already been said better by someone else.
06
Create and Share Valuable Content
“
I know this material cold. But the moment someone asks me to present it, I freeze.

Speak and Present Like a Pro
“
I feel strange charging someone for my opinion. Who am I to tell anyone what to do?

A PREVIEW FROM CHAPTER 2
The Rule of 100
If you invest 100 hours a year, just 18 minutes a day, in any discipline, you'll develop more knowledge and skill in that area than approximately 95% of the world's population.
“Eighteen minutes a day scattered across ten topics produces nothing. Eighteen minutes a day focused on the right fundamentals produces an expert.”
Daily focused practice

— MEET THE AUTHOR
Colin R. Brown
I started my consulting business fresh out of college with a marketing degree and software I'd taught myself to write. Over forty-plus years in technology and internet business, I've had to reinvent my expertise again and again: search engines, e-commerce, SEO, marketing automation, CRM, and now AI.
Today I work where AI implementation, digital marketing and financial professional services meet, helping consultants use practical, human-in-the-loop AI to grow their practices. This book is the playbook I wish I'd had on day one.
