Lots of marketing experts and business gurus talk about building a strong platform, but what does that really mean, why is it so important and how the heck do you do it?



Here's the WHAT...

Basically, from the perspective of the spiritual business owner, your platform is your unique message that you share with the world in your unique way. It's your personal expression of divine truth presented as a topic or area of expertise that you align your business energy with.

Building a platform is beneficial to your business because it gives you a specialty that you can become well known for. The desired result is that when people think about the topic or idea you choose as your business platform, they will automatically think of YOU.
 
And the WHY...
 
Here are just a few of the benefits of building a strong platform: 

• Platforms can be built upon with your spiritual tools, services and programs through various delivery method (i.e. speaking, writing, teaching, hosting workshops, etc.).

• Platforms attract your ideal clients to your business. By continuing to build your platform you continue to nurture your relationship with these clients.

• Building a spiritual tribe or community around your platform allows you to grow your business more effectively with the enthusiastic help of potential clients and joint venture partners.

And, of course, the HOW...

In order to build your platform it's not enough just to identify a topic or area of interest. You must be willing to spread the word about it.

One of the coolest, most enjoyable ways I know of to spread the word about your business is by hosting live spiritual workshops in your community.

Workshops are an extremely effective way to spread your message and let people know exactly what you stand for, and they're a heck of a lot of fun too!

Hosting your own workshops will allow you to share your experiences, knowledge and wisdom with people who are interested in your message and the platform that you're building ~ which also makes them the perfect clients for your spiritual business.
