Thought Leadership

Showcase the experts who make your company an industry leader
In today’s noisy, saturated markets, every executive wants to be a thought leader, making the act of becoming one that much harder. True thought leaders are opinionated—and vocal about it—with subject matter expertise grounded in unique market knowledge and customer-focused insight.
Red Fan knows that real thought leadership can build unshakable trust between your team and your customers while nurturing sincere relationships with the media covering your industry. When embarking on a thought leadership strategy, you want a trusted adviser from Red Fan in your corner. We’re firm on the differences between “thought leaders” and “subject matter experts” and know how to leverage both to elevate your marketing and communications strategies.

Our Process

Executives don’t become thought leaders overnight. It takes time, dedication and focus to establish a reputation as a forward-thinker—a champion of your industry, brand and customers. We work directly with executives to build thought leadership programs that position them at the forefront of industry conversations, make them go-to resources, and communicate new ideas and fresh perspectives that move markets.
We’ll conduct in-depth interviews with thought leaders to identify themes, expertise, goals and specific story topics that align or overlap with brand themes. Our bespoke platforms for each thought leader outline topics the market cares about most and can be applied to every major area of thought leadership: media and analyst relations, contributed content, social media, video and podcasts, awards, and speaking engagements.
