Daniel Priestley is an Australian-born entrepreneur, author and speaker based in the UK, and co-founder of the business accelerator Dent Global and the software company ScoreApp. He is the author of Key Person of Influence and Oversubscribed, and is known for his advice on building a personal brand and demand for a business.
Brian Rose interviewed Priestley on London Real in 2015, about leaving the standard career route at 21, building an events business within five years, and the five skills he says make someone a key person of influence in their industry. London Real also published a short Key Person of Influence presentation by Glen Carlson the same month.
Both episodes are listed below with a short summary.
Key Person Of Influence (2015). The full interview with Brian Rose, covering his own start in business and the ideas behind his best-known book.
Priestley argues that the people who do best in any industry are the ones who are well known and trusted in their niche. In his book and his 2015 interview he set out five steps to get there: pitch, publish, productise, profile and partnership.
He believes more people should build their own businesses rather than follow a standard career. He left that route at 21 himself and had built an events business within five years.
The Key Person of Influence presentation shown on London Real argues that most small business owners get stuck in a competitive struggle zone, and need to choose between a lifestyle business and a performance business to move beyond it.
