Nobody owes you business. It's up to you to go out and get it. The best way to start is to stop focusing on your own business. Start focussing on your clients/customers. - What's their problem - What’s the plan to fix it - What is it costing them, time, money, stress - How does your plan make their life better? Remember: Too many focus on the thing they're selling. When they should be focussed on their customers' problems. For example: Can you write messaging or a post about your customer's problems, without mentioning your business? If you can't then you have more work to do. P.S. Look at your current website and messaging. Is it written for you, or your customer? ------------- Repost to help others out there! ♻️ Follow me and hit the 🔔 for more

3 Essentials To Grow Your Business in 2024 Focusing on these 3 things was the aha moment I needed that took my business from surviving to thriving and prospering. The 1st thing I did was, get clear on who I'm serving. You need to know who your ideal client is. When I realized that not every person in my industry was my customer, my marketing and focus became clearer. Remember, a business that's selling to everyone is selling to no one. The 2nd thing I did was list down the problems and desires of that ideal client. The problems help you frame your marketing & give you clarity. The desires make it easier to position your business as THE solution to their problems. And the 3rd thing is continuous refinement of the product/process you deliver. There is always room for improvement and efficiency. Revisit your client experience from the time you meet a new client: The process they go through with you and your team, the communication and email cadence, the closing, and how you stay in touch after the closing or sale. And the only way to really know which area needs refinement is by asking for feedback and executing on it.

#Business #Tip : When you first start out, make sure you have a website that, at a minimum, includes your business name and contact info, describes your offering, and has a form someone can fill out to learn more about your product or service. You can do this for free these days.

Are you finding that your day-to-day business activities feel disjointed and lack a cohesiveness that ties them all together? A clearly defined brand mission acts as the glue that holds your business activities together, ensuring that every product developed, every service offered, and every message conveyed represents your intention and purpose. It transforms routine work into a unified effort towards a common goal, enhancing team unity and customer satisfaction. With a solid mission, your business becomes more than a provider of goods or services—it becomes a symbol of change and reliable value. Start with these 3 steps: 1: Identify the fundamental actions that embody your business today. What unique solutions do you provide? How do these offerings reflect the broader goals and aspirations of your business? 2: Delve into the 'why' behind your actions. Beyond profit, what are you seeking to achieve? How does each aspect of your business contribute to this goal? This exploration will help clarify the mission driving your business. 3: Craft a mission statement that encapsulates these ideas. It should be clear, motivational, and reflective of the unique identity and aspirations of your business, guiding your team's actions and resonating with your customers. // Improve Business Performance Attract more customers, outperform your competition, and increase your revenue.

How much value would 13 leads be for your business? (And no I'm not talking about the type of leads that we all get sold daily in our DMs.) But actually potential customers that have already visited your website. The average website I look at has ~1000 monthly visitors. My guess is that 2 visitors fill out the contact form, book the call, dial the phone number. With a minor tweak. I help businesses capture 300 email addresses, and 15 booked calls, appointments or form submissions. What would 13 more leads and 300 email addresses mean for your business? (simple answer: (# of leads) * (% of closed deals) * (average customer value) = value to your business)
