5 Stages of the Maturity Model

As pioneers in Authority development since 2005, we’ve helped thousands of clients harness their expertise and amplify their impact through strategic publishing and media services.

Stage 1

Emerging

Focus is largely internal, aimed at gaining experience and credentials while taking initial steps to build an owned audience by engaging with unique ideas and perspectives.

Stage 2

Tactical

Experimental with starting knowledge as an Authority. Seeing some success with tactics and using “at bats” to crystallize messages and platform strategies.

Stage 3

Operational

Authority strategies are being leveraged consistently, and business-driving results are being realized. Becoming known as “teacher” with something to share and starting to field organic Authority opportunities.

Stage 4

Strategic

Authority-building has become critical and is interwoven within the business planning cycle. Authority is consistently reaching new and more strategic audiences with their message. Effective combinations of reactive and proactive strategies are being leveraged.

Stage 5

Differentiated

Authority is a strategic asset to the business. This Authority is known as “best in class” and has separated themselves from peers as the “go to” on their topic. Brands pay to be associated with them. They command price and market power and are building a legacy.
