Personal Fame Program: Become a Recognized Expert in Your Industry

Personal Fame Programs take an intense, customized approach to applying the Get Slightly Famous system to your business.

Personal Fame Programs begin with an initial assessment to create an overall strategy for your business or project. Regular telephone mentor sessions are usually held from two-to-four times a month, depending on your project and timeline.

Programs last from 6 to 12 months. We meet by telephone and maintain contact by e-mail between meetings for support and feedback. We help you create a strategy and stay on track.

Client Results: Mari Gottdiener Outsource Solutions Mari Gottdiener specializes in getting credit bureaus to correct errors on consumer credit reports. After struggling to build her business with no particular "niche" market focus, we identified that mortgage brokers were great prospects because their clients needed to resolve credit issues before they could get home loans. We identified mortgage broker trade associations as primary targets. From here, we approached their magazines that reached mortgage brokers and published articles in Mari's name about topics related to credit repair. The decision to target the mortgage broker sector "transformed" her business, says Gottdiener. "The more I focused on being the person who fixes credit problems for mortgage brokers, the easier it became to define what I could do for them. Now, my name gets passed around, and I've developed a special reputation within that market that makes getting business easier than ever." "Without a doubt, your advice, tactics, and strategies helped me break into print in two of the best publications that reached my target market. It would have taken me hours of research and a lot of trial and error to accomplish what we did together in a few short months, I got a lot for the money!"
