Understanding New Revenue Streams as an Expert
When we think about revenue streams, we usually assume it is directly related to the knowledge and experience we have. What we sometimes fail to do, is to look at what other markets, our knowledge and experience, can benefit people. This is really the whole idea behind Innovation. How do we look at what we know and what we can do and how do we apply that talent into places where no one has lived before.
Often business coaches classify this as your differentiator. In the work that I do, I like to take that even further and try to identify it as a whole new market to allow you to be unique from other folks who also have a similar knowledge set to you.
This is a HUGE passion of mine. The idea that Innovation only belongs to Tech is just not true. When we think about all the places that we can help people in all the ways that we can help people, it really is an Innovative way to do so.
