What is Impact and Influence?

“Impact and influence as a competency is the ability to persuade or convince others to support an idea, agenda or direction.  Sometimes we refer to it as strategic influence.  It involves taking a variety of actions to influence others including establishing credibility or using data to directly persuade or address a person’s issues or concerns.”

Tracy Hazzard: I think that sounds manipulative. It sounds like the digital marketer definition of influencer. Like the ones who are using Google trends to figure out how to increase product ranks by going above everyone else. To me, that is not a true influencer. Those influencers make money in really unscrupulous ways, and at the end of the day their products are not really any good. They are just hocking stuff. For those, it’s about money, not making an impact.

Impact to me means; one wants to accomplish something bigger and better for the world. It needs to be authentic at the end of the day. #Trueinfluencer

 

Episode Notes: Becoming an Influencer Power Player for Good 

Tracy met her husband at Rhode Island School of Design, both studying art and becoming best friends before dating. Since then, they got married, had three children and have been working together for almost 25 years. Tracy’s husband is her partner in crime. Many people are fascinated and cannot believe how long they have been working together and not only that, but Tracy and her husband have added their 23 year-old daughter to their business. REAL FAMILY BUSINESS! Tracy also has a 9 year-old and a 4 year-old, but they have yet to add them to the family business.

The creative process is continuously flowing within Tracy and her husband and that is what created a partnership.”

Tracy runs two businesses; a product based business and a content based business. The reality is to sell great products, but in order to do that you have to have good content.

How Can You Become the Influencer?

  • Passion
  • Advertise
  • Influencer Campaign

Potential Client Outlook 

  1. Start on the “platform”
  2. Test (Hypothesis)
  3. Access Women
    1. Women control 86% of the purchases that are created at retail. They either buy or influence the decision. This is across every product category.
  4. Conversion

 

What Does Biz4Good Mean to you?

I have a passion for stirring those in the right direction and influencing them to figure out their actions, and the path they will take to accomplish a faster market for their product. 1. Get the message out there. 2. Spread their voice. I can build a marketing brand for them or I can show them and remember, you don’t have to be first out there, but you have to be fast.

I can grow other peoples businesses. I can provide the tools, path, and fastest way to achieve a market.
