"We're not here to blend in!" (Kris Ward)

If you want to know what it takes to find and hone your voice on social media, secure hundreds of quality podcast interviews (as the guest), as well as produce a podcast that attracts 1000+ 5-star reviews, then you're in the right place! Strap yourselves in as author, podcaster and entrepreneur - Kris Ward - brings both the energy and transparency in this episode!

*** [ CURATED FROM REPUTATION REVOLUTION ] Every now and then I'm selecting an interesting and relevant interview previously recorded for my previous podcast, Reputation Revolution ***
___________________________

I first spoke to Kris Ward - author of the book, Win The Hour Win The Day and host of the podcast of the same name - for an episode of my podcast REPUTATION REVOLUTION. That conversation centred on how subject matter leaders can leverage their time and resources while building their professional personal brand in the marketplace.

In doing my research for that initial interview, I was super-impressed with how well Kris was building her own professional online presence (her face was everywhere!), so I decided to 'keep the tape running' and then delved with Kris into her story.

That's what this episode is all about: Kris's story, from returning to her business after the passing of her husband, through to finding her voice on social media (becoming "bold faced"), growing her podcast (which has over 1000 5-star reviews), writing as book, as well as a behind-the-scenes peek behind her wildly-successful podcast guesting strategy.

These are all core elements of PR, content and digital communications -

So when I get the opportunity to showcase someone who's out there doing great stuff, who is 'bringing to life' everything we talk about here on this podcast - then I'm going to do it!

This is a fascinating and value-packed conversation!

Kris walks us through her struggle to sharpen her point of view through her content, and how she became featured on some 400+ award-winning podcasts, radio and TV shows throughout the world. Of note, she has been interviewed by one of the original sharks from Shark Tank, Kevin Harrington, and ABC’s The Secret Millionaire – James Malinchak.

The theme of this discussion really is a 'perfect collision' of owned media, earned media and social media - something we talk about often here on the Become Your Own PR Machine show.

Kris has a blog, plus she has a growing presence on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and LinkedIn! Phewww! She's a dynamo, you're going to love this interview!
