Focus Experts

Focus helps millions of business people make smarter decisions. We can use your help!

 
What is the Focus Expert Network?
 
The Focus Expert Network is a community of thought leaders from across diverse business and IT  functions. Experts consist of thought leaders, veteran practitioners and upstart innovators who help thousands of businesses with tough decisions every day. They do this by publishing research, answering questions on the site, and providing personalized support to the Focus community. We grant Focus Experts status based on the extent of experience, industry recognition, and, most importantly, the quality and frequency of contributions to Focus.com.
 
What do Focus Experts do?
 
Focus Experts generally contribute 5 times per month (usually 1-1.5 hours) doing any combination of the following activities, but chief among them are:

1. Focus.com contributions:
   1. Answer questions – Experts can visit relevant sections of the site directly, or opt-in to receive Twitter or email notifications of relevant questions within their area of expertise. Learn about Expert Generated Content to make your contributions more likely to be published in a Focus report.
   2. Ask questions – Start a smart discussion and take advantage of learning from other Experts.
   3. Write Focus Briefs – Briefs are short-form articles that showcase your advice and knowledge. Once approved by our editorial team, submitted briefs are promoted through social media, our media network and on Focus.com.
2. Webinars: Experts are periodically asked to speak at our client webinars.
3. Interactive Summits: Focus often holds half-day virtual tradeshows that feature presentations exclusively from Focus Experts.
4. Teleconferences: Focus Roundtables are 45 minute teleconferences that bring together a panel of 4-5 Experts to discuss relevant issues of the day.
5. Press quotes: Reporters and media outlets come to us to provide Experts for quotes for their articles.
