Ep 176: Philip Morgan on the Road to Developing True Expertise and the Risks of Becoming a Category of One


Listen Later

I’m thrilled to share a conversation I had recently with returning guest, Philip Morgan.


Philip Morgan's work on specialization, cultivating expertise, and monetizing IP helps independent consultants thrive. His Expertise Incubator program helps indie consultants cultivate expertise, a point of view, and IP. His book, The Positioning Manual for Indie Consultants has helped thousands transform their businesses.


In this episode, we dove into what it means to be a category of one, the risks involved, and why service businesses struggle with this common advice.



Tune into this episode to hear:

  • The risks of creating a whole new category for yourself
  • The unique challenges for service businesses versus product businesses
  • The difference between positioning and differentiation, and why you need both
  • Why true expertise requires balancing confidence, uncertainty, and communication
