Big, juicy burger? Great! Big, juicy burger topped with bacon? Awesome!

Thought leaders are able to reach audiences with their message in a way that is compelling and trusted.

Thought leaders are able to differentiate themselves from everyone else in their field by telling stories that are unique but relatable.

Thought leaders are able to make a big impact because their content goes far deeper than rattling off age-old tactics that audiences have heard some version of before. 

Know this: great is no longer good enough. If you want to bring your message to audiences in a powerful way that is memorable and calls them to action, youā€™ve got to be awesome. Youā€™ve got to be a thought leader!

Itā€™s time to evolve from expert to thought leader.
