This is a lesson I learned when my assistant asked me for audio interviews.
There is tremendous power if someone else asks for you. Even if it’s a family member or a friend, like her assistant. As long as you’re positioned as someone working with you, there’s tremendous power in having someone else do it.
I had an assistant that I hired for a couple of months and her job was to book me interviews. I was kind of in an interview mode and it was kind of stressful asking for interviews. If I’m asking, it can be nervous for me to ask for an interview, you know? They may reject me like everyone else.
But I hired this assistant and I didn’t have to deal with it. I said, “Here’s your job; your job is to approach these experts,” and I gave him a list, “and you’re Michael Senoff’s personal assistant, and Michael Senoff would like to interview you for the month of November or December.” ,” whatever. That was very powerful, because it wasn’t me asking, it was someone else asking, and it was a great positioning for me.
She was really successful. That month we did a lot of interviews. I was so busy doing interviews and editing the audio that I had to take a breather for a while. She got me so many things that I didn’t use it for the third month, I couldn’t keep up.
So yes, you can be a nobody, but you could position yourself by having a personal assistant call and schedule these interviews for you and with phone systems that people don’t know about today and with a website you could project a beautiful image. They really have no idea what your company or business is like and I am not saying lie or deceive anyone. But do it.
