Connecting with Josh I do a lot of teaching and pro bono
work.  If you’ll go to UpMyInfluence.com, you can join me on a
webinar where I will spend a little bit more time breaking this
down.  That way, you’ll have some very, very actionable things
that you and your team can go out and do to start winning. 
Everybody wants to work with a winner.  I firmly believe that
everyone has a message that could possibly impact the world, so our
job is simply to turn those people into media stars so they can
have every bit of it. Resources UpMyInfluence.com BuzzSumo Upwork
