Melanie Benson

I'm Melanie Benson, an Authority Amplifier, visibility strategist and money mindset coach who helps expert-preneurs get visible and get paid. I host the top 1% podcast, Amplify Your Success podcast and The Growth Fuel Substack.

I specialize in guiding established coaches, consultants and service providers who feel like a best-kept secret to use proven strategies to become The Un-Ignorable Leader in their field. From the Authority Accelerator Mastermind, Un-Ignorable Substack Accelerator and my collaborative community, The Rising Tide Collective, we transform thought leadership into your invisible sales force, then amplify the reach through podcasts and collaborations.

I've coached since 2001 and built my business from scratch after a corporate career at Motorola where I worked as a business analyst, project manager and trade show manager. I hold a Bachelor's in Business Management and a Master's in Organizational Management, and I have certifications in NLP, Human Design and as a licensed spiritual counselor.

I live in the hills above Malibu with my husband, two bonus kids and two fur babies, and I am a coffee snob who enjoys being a gourmet paleo chef.
