In this episode, Blaine discusses the 'expert pyramid' and what it takes to climb to the top where the experts reside. Blaine explains that the top of the expert pyramid is not necessarily occupied by those with the most technical skills, but instead with those who have developed the most vital skills of communication and leadership. 

Often in business, it is not the smartest who experience the greatest success, but instead the most driven, the most creative, those with the best communication, negotiation, and client service skills, and those who understand their markets the best.

Listen in for some tips on climbing the expert pyramid and the key things to focus on if you have any desire to move above the crowded level of the novice and even the specialist. The air is better at the top, and so are the fees!
