📊 Making Your Association’s Research Matter 📊 This week’s Association Insights dives into how to make your association’s research resonate with the media and public. Start by linking your findings to real-world issues like economic growth or public health—connections that make the impact of your research clear. Framing research around current trends or news increases media interest, and presenting findings in simple, relatable language or visuals like infographics helps audiences grasp complex ideas quickly. By making your research relevant, accessible and actionable, you’ll amplify its impact and ensure it captures attention. 💬 What strategies help your research stand out?

Could your pathway to becoming a published author be hidden within the episodes of a podcast? Absolutely. Let’s explore how turning your podcast into a powerful content tool can pave the way for your book’s success: ◉ 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Start by using your podcast as a dynamic space to unfold your book ideas. Each episode allows you to explore different angles of your topic, refine your concepts, and develop your narrative organically. Think of your podcast as the place where your book content comes to life, episode by episode. ◉ 𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤: Podcasts offer a unique opportunity to trial your ideas and receive immediate feedback. This real-time interaction with your audience allows you to gauge what resonates and what needs tweaking. Use this feedback to shape your book, ensuring it hits the mark with your target readers. ◉ 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲: Starting a podcast before your book is published helps you connect with potential readers well in advance. Regular episodes keep your audience engaged and invested in your journey, turning casual listeners into committed fans. By the time your book launches, you’ll have a community of supporters eager to get their hands on your work. Podcasting is more than just a promotional tool; it’s a strategic method to develop, refine, and market your upcoming book. By integrating podcasting into your author strategy, you can reduce the overwhelm of writing and enhance your connection with future readers, making your book launch successful and fulfilling. #marketing #author #publishing #marketingstrategy #podcast

Building a strong personal brand isn't just beneficial for your speaking career—it's essential. This month's feature in our "Turned Pages Into Stages" series is Dr. Joel A. Davis Brown, Ed.D. (he/him/his), a figure who perfectly illustrates the power of a well-crafted personal brand in catapulting an author from the page to the stage. Dr. Brown's journey into the speaking circuit has been marked by his strategic use of his personal brand to amplify his voice and extend his influence. As the founder of Pneumos and a seasoned DEI consultant, his transition to speaking was supercharged by the launch of his personal website, joeldavisbrown.com. This platform has not only showcased his expertise but also solidified his persona as a thought leader in transformative leadership. Leveraging his brand, Dr. Brown has cultivated a series of winning speaking engagements, where he brings the resilience and insights of the LGBTQ+ community to the forefront, advocating for inclusive leadership. His personal brand serves as a beacon that attracts speaking opportunities, enabling him to share his message with broader audiences. Behind every keynote and workshop, Dr. Brown's personal brand works tirelessly, ensuring that his voice is not just heard but sought after. It’s a testament to how essential a robust personal brand is for authors looking to make an impact beyond the book. For authors aiming to expand their reach, Dr. Brown’s approach underscores a crucial lesson: A strong personal brand is your greatest ally in turning pages into stages. It’s not just about what you say; it’s about how you present yourself while saying it. #marketing #author #publicspeaking #marketingstrategy
