Tanya Hall

Are you an unsung expert with great ideas but no cohesive marketing platform to support your career and business goals? You may be a consultant, professional, entrepreneur, speaker or author looking to increase your client base or your fees. Tanya Hall’s company specializes in helping experts like you develop smart strategies in content marketing to drive your success.

At a time when U.S. publishers saw sales shrink, Tanya helped propel rapid growth at Greenleaf Book Group where she heads business development and marketing. Capitalizing on the company’s innovative business model, she spearheaded strategic partnerships, new growth initiatives and media strategies. Tanya shows how to establish your own expert platform and create a marketing mix to push your brand and your bottom line.

Developing a roadmap to a robust marketing platform begins with taking a hard look at your current state of affairs and determining goals and messaging. Tanya will help you describe what you’re trying to achieve and how you’re going to frame that goal.

Once your end goal is established, you’ll move on to examine existing content, social media, and brand channels to identify strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities. This two-part process provides a solid picture of where you currently are and where you want to eventually arrive – plus actionable steps to get there.

She’ll show you how to develop a strategy that weighs opportunities such as blogging, podcasts, social media, article and book writing, speaking, networking, and other content marketing opportunities against demographics and your available resources.

Tanya will walk through the basics of content marketing opportunities for experts and help you determine which approach is right for you to develop your credibility and visibility.
