Key Person of Influence (Revised Edition): The Five-Step Method to Become One of the Most Highly Valued and Highly Paid People in Your Industry Paperback – September 19, 2014

Probably the best book of it's type that I have read, and I have read a lot. I found it to be clear, concise and with no 'fluff'. What surprised me the most is that this book delivers it all in one place. I have ready many books on all of the different aspects of getting your name out there etc but this book offers a step-by-step process of how to obtain massive results. Daniel doesn't just offer up suggestions he actually takes you through the process and shows you the 'how to'. My partner is now reading it and is getting as much out of it as I did. A great read. I thought that I had covered all basis but after reading this book I am even more enthusiastic about the possibilities available to me. I got so much out of it I will definitely be reading it again!

The media could not be loaded.  A friend told me about Daniel Priestley. After listening to the book on Audible I bought the paperback. this is a book I wanted to study, underline, highlight and IMPLEMENT. This is the key to getting ahead in the modern world.

This book just sucked me in and I read 50% in the first sitting. The reason for that is because it's well written and has valid points that really resonate with me. You know you have found an awesome resource when you keep on making notes in your todo list about all the ideas and actionable content coming your way.I prefer books that say what they need to say and that don't have to much fluff and this book is exactly like that.Highly recommended!

I found the book was well written and easy to read. The exercises were great and the additional online information was an unexpected bonus.

Very pertinent and relevant approach to today's business market and culture and how to parlay that into success and into becoming a key person of influence!

The “secret” (If there is something like that) to be successful. Forget about education (it helps) or money (it also helps). The key is to become an influencer in your mist loved, expert area.

Remarkable framework. Very simple, yet powerful way to structure thinking about influence. Good for people who want to write a book or people who are the face of their brand, such as consultants.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this book. It's written so it's easy to understand. There are steps to follow to get started right away. It makes sense and it doesn't take days and days to get through it.If you're in business or starting a business, you need this!

I got sucked in by all the five star reviews. The title of the book suggests you can become top of your industry in 5 steps. The reality is, it's going to take a lot of hard work and effort to do those steps - and each step has a whole bunch of sub steps. If you've got time to author lots of papers, speak at lots of conferences, write blogs, produce podcasts etc then you may be in with a shout of ticking the boxes in the book. The reality is few people have the time to do all this AND do their day job.

What drives people who want to be entrepreneurs – fame, fortune or controlling own destiny. Whatever the goal, you need to be well known, you need to be a thought leader, and in today’s world, that means being highly proficient on the internet and social media.Daniel presents 5 steps to becoming a Key Person of Influence by; defining your purpose, having something to say, generate material, get web famous and collaborate. What I really like about Daniel is that he removes the BS and tells it as cold hard truths. His clarity of thought in how you start with a single purpose and build on that to generate the greatest impact is superb. He doesn't claim it will be easy and it isn't, but if you want it badly enough the effort will be rewarded. His writing style is easy, the book is visually very good, and throughout the book, there are real gems of advice and action lists.

At the time when I picked up the book, I was a successful consultant, working for big corporations. Business was great but I was close to burnout. I could't grow more - there were not enough hours in the day and my fees were already very high. I knew I needed a new business model, one that could help me scale up.A friend recommended the Key Person of Influence book. I reluctantly bought it thinking yet another 5 steps of something book. I am glad I did. It was the beginning of an amazing personal and professional journey.The book helped me transition to a business model which I could scale up (by building a product ecosystem), improve my brand (through publishing) and leverage partnerships.I am now gifting this book to other entrepreneurs. It's structured, practical, asks the right questions. The 5 steps are clearly laid down and there are many things you can implement immediately. It is not theory, it is written by somebody who has done it and taught others to do it too.Highly recommend it if you want to become a person of influence and to grow your business - it might well be the best investment in your business this year!

I can't speak highly enough about this magnificent little book. I am planning a new business venture about a novel piece of thought leadership, and have just embarked on writing my book on this. Daniel Priestley's book on becoming a Key Person of Influence will undoubtedly help me make a real success of this.The book is very well written - in clear and concise language. I have run a consultancy company before, but even so I learned a huge amount from this book.When I have my book published I will contact Daniel and seek a genuine partnership with him. His book oozes both confidence and an ethical approach to business.Highly (very highly) recommend.

This is a great little book that does what it says on the tin.It’s a take action book - less theory, more practice. It’s quick and easy to read and very much to the point.Only downside is all five steps required to be a key person of influence have to be followed, in order, to achieve the results (but that’s more to do with the doctrine than with the book itself). In other words, no shortcuts here!A useful read; one that I’m sure I’ll be referencing now and again for some years.
