2. FEATURE: Building Confidence Quickly
Confidence is very attractive in a service professional. We want our clients to feel secure that we know what we are doing.
But, what if you aren’t that confident? What if you are asking yourself, “Can I really do this?” or “Are people going to treat me seriously?” or “What if someone asks what qualifies me?”
Show Yourself as an Expert
What are you trying to do for people? Show people you have the knowledge to help solve their particular problem.
- Write articles and submit them to article directories, newsletters & blogs that have the same type of audience.
- Have a blog and/or newsletter where you share some of your knowledge.
- Trade interviews with other experts. If someone is interviewing you, you must be an expert in something, right? Plus it gives you material for products, articles and newsletters.
- Write book reviews at Amazon.com or at your blog about books in your field.
- Similarly you can review products in your field.
- Get a speaking gig.
Write Your Bio
When you remember what brought you to this point, you realize you do have lots to offer. Your background and experience can be a great confidence booster.
What are your related experiences? What training do you have? What are other careers you have had?
Read your bio before making a call to a potential client or following up with leads.
Get Out There
I’ve found that you gain confidence fast by getting out there in the field and doing your work as much as possible. It feels easier and you get better the more you do something.

Hello from beautiful Motana:
Thanks for your articles and posts. It is always a pleasure to read thoughts from others who are of a like mind.
One of my books is “Building Self Confidence with Encouraging Words.” I stress how looking at old belief systems and practices may no longer serve you in the present.
Many people find it very hard to look inward and examine their lives and thoughts. However, it is the only way to truly change what we think and do.
Good Luck in the coming year,
Judy Helm Wright aka Auntie Artichoke, family relationship author and keynote speaker
