In this episode:

Becoming a go-to expert is not about having more credentials or building a bigger product. It is about communicating your expertise in a way that resonates with your audience.

In this episode of Systems Simplified, Adi Klevit interviews Alex Moscow, a PR strategist who has spent more than two decades helping leaders uncover their insights and turn them into meaningful authority. Alex explains why most businesses mistakenly focus on selling their products instead of demonstrating their expertise, and why audiences respond to stories, relevance, and results.

He also breaks down how to audit your mind for experiences worth sharing, how to identify beliefs and myths that slow your audience down, and how to use small, low risk pieces of value to build trust. Alex outlines the difference between noise and signal, why B2B decisions are emotional, and how entrepreneurs can establish expert positioning long before any media exposure.

Quotable Moments:

  • “A go-to expert is not someone who has expertise. It is someone whose market knows they have expertise.”
  • “Your website should be a mirror that reflects your ideal client back to themselves.”
  • “People buy based on how you make them feel, not based on the features of your product.”
  • “Your experience and insight are the signal that cuts through the white noise.”
  • “Results in advance build trust long before a sale is made.”

Action Steps:

  1. Audit your experience to identify lessons, insights, and myths you can address.
  2. Shift from promoting features to demonstrating relevance, expertise, and outcomes.
  3. Turn your website into a mirror that reflects your ideal client’s challenges and goals.
  4. Share valuable low risk insights that help your audience gain small wins.
