Are YOU an INFLUENCER?

Whether we know it or not, WE are influencers!
What, exactly, is an influencer?
The Cambridge English Dictionary’s definition of an influencer is a person or group that has the ability to influence the behavior or opinions of others.
Statistics from Google state: People with followers in the range between 500,000 and 1 million followers on a social network are macro-influencers. Most influencers are micro-influencers with between 10,000 and 50,000 followers. In really specialist niches, you have nano-influencers with fewer than 1,000 followers.
Where do you see yourself as an Influencer?
Macro, micro, or nano-influencer. Medium makes it easy to figure it out. Most of us have less than 1000 followers but we are STILL Influencers in big ways.
What is YOUR area of expertise or interest that you can or do share with others?
Maybe your love of kayaking influences others to join you on the waterways. Or your interest in health issues results in you and your family’s healthy eating habits. Or your interest in psychological issues leads you to write and publish your thoughts and findings on Medium. No matter how large or small your audience, you are an Influencer, a leader, motivator, inspirer, trendsetter….
IN WHAT SPECIALTY AREA DO YOU WANT TO BE AN INFLUENCER?
Think about it….
For me, I’m a retired Registered Nurse so know life from a medical perspective. I am a writer and enjoy writing serious and silly. I also enjoy researching, so often include my findings in my writings. Yet foremost, I would like to influence people to enter the Kingdom of God through following the Lord Jesus Christ.
WHERE AND HOW LARGE DO YOU WANT YOUR INFLUENCE TO BE?
This is an important issue since it will determine where you ‘show up’. I, for instance, enjoy adding my thoughts via writing on Medium. I also, daily, enjoy posting a photo and my thoughts on Facebook. I also enjoy writing notes to friends for a 1:1 influence. My goal is to be an encouragement to those who see and read whatever I have to say.
For me, I am encouraged to do this: But Jesus said, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how He has had mercy on you”.(Mark 5:19, NIV).
WHAT IS YOUR NICHE?
Since the world is huge and subjects are vast, where do you fit in as an Influencer. At home? At the workplace? On social media? On Medium?
I’d enjoy hearing from you!
