When this happens, most likely they would return the favor and share your content with their own audiences, making your brand reach more people. <a href="https://mpsocial.com" rel="nofollow">mpsocial</a>tike mikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646994462395287119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-671730244319076817.post-59286163412173934522021-02-06T23:53:09.838-08:002021-02-06T23:53:09.838-08:00One of the marks of a successful Internet marketer...One of the marks of a successful Internet marketer is the willingness to try things out.

If saying "I have a PhD in patient experience" got pushback from people holding doctorates, I wouldn't be surprised. (Disappointed though - c'mon PhDs, it's just a figure of speech, nobody's taking it literally.) But 'expert'? Who's an expert in patient experience, if not a... wait for it... super experienced and knowledgeable patient?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04120998516221538708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-671730244319076817.post-59828287817915341582019-02-19T13:13:09.994-08:002019-02-19T13:13:09.994-08:00I thought when I posted the comment above I though...I thought when I posted the comment above I thought I'd be identified.

I think I know why I and other parents felt we had to claim and assert expertise, but since then I've come to think of that as something of a trap. Experiential knowledge is often at least as valuable as expertise and doesn't need to be "converted" into academic terms as when one well-meaning hospital CEO said the parents of the children in her centre all have "expertise in their children." I know my child MUCH better than any healthcare professional does, but the analogy with the kind of knowledge an academic has in his or her field of expertise strikes me as all wrong.<br /><br />In the article to which I think you're referring, Isabel, I never suggest only MDs and academics can be experts. In fact, I said I know patients, especially (but not only) those with rare conditions, who are indeed experts. And I certainly agree with you that expertise can come from experience--it almost always does--but experience doesn't necessarily or even usually result in expertise.

You have precisely and beautifully captured the point in a thoughtful fashion that should offend no professional experts, Isabel. <br /><br />You had me at the Merriam-Webster dictionary definition: "an ‘expert’ is defined as having, involving, or displaying special skill or knowledge derived from training or experience".<br /><br />BOOM!
